The twisted cubic in PG(3,q) and translation spreads in H(q)
In the present article the authors remind the known connections between translation spreads of the classical generalized hexagon \(H(q)\) and the twister cubic of \(PG(3,q)\). They prove that if \(q^n\equiv 1\pmod 3\), \(q\text{ odd}\), \(q\geq 4n^2-8n+2\) and \(n>2\), then an \(\mathbb{F}_q\)-linear subset of \(PG(3,q^n)\) of rank \(2n\) of \(PG(3,q^n)\) whose points belong to imaginary chords of a twister cubic \({\mathcal C}\) of \(PG(3,q^n)\) is an \(\mathbb{F}_{q^n}\)-linear set and hence it is a line. As an application they get that if \(q^n\equiv 1\pmod 3\), \(q\) odd, \(q\geq 4n^2-8n+2\) and \(n>2\), then \(H(q^n)\) does not admit an \(\mathbb{F}_q\)-translation spread with respect to a line.
