Abstract: Let L be a linear set of pseudoregulus type in a line ell in Sigma=mathrmPG(t1,qt), t=5 or t>6. We provide examples of q-order canonical subgeometries Sigma1,,Sigma2subsetSigma such that there is a (t3)-space GammasubsetSigmasetminus(Sigma1cupSigma2cupell) with the property that for i=1,2, L is the projection of Sigmai from center Gamma and there exists no collineation phi of Sigma such that Gammaphi=Gamma and Sigma1phi=Sigma2. Condition (ii) given in Theorem 3 in Lavrauw and Van de Voorde (Des. Codes Cryptogr. 56:89-104, 2010) states the existence of a collineation between the projecting configurations (each of them consisting of a center and a subgeometry), which give rise by means of projections to two linear sets. It follows from our examples that this condition is not necessary for the equivalence of two linear sets as stated there. We characterize the linear sets for which the condition above is actually necessary.
