Review text

Let \(\Phi\) be a quadratically closed field of characteristic \(\neq 2\). A subspace \(V\) of the space of (skew-) symmetric matrices is called an annihilating space of (skew-) symmetric matrices (in brief, an A\(\varepsilon\)SM-space, \(\varepsilon=1\) \((\varepsilon =-1)\)) if \(xy=0\) for all \(x,y \in V\). Two A\(\varepsilon\)SM-spaces \(V\) and \(W\) are said to be equivalent if \(W=qVq^t\) for some matrix \(q \in O(n)\), where \(O(n)\) is the orthogonal group of \(n\)-matrices over \(\Phi\). The author gives a complete description of all (up to equivalence) maximal A\(\varepsilon\)SM-spaces.
