Abstract: Let $k$ be a perfect field and let $Xsubset{mathbbP}^N$ be a hypersurface of degree $d$ defined over $k$ and containing a linear subspace $L$ defined over an algebraic closure $overlinek$ with $mathrm{codim}_{{mathbbP}^N}L=r$. We show that $X$ contains a linear subspace $L_0$ defined over $k$ with $mathrm{codim}_{{mathbbP}^N}Lledr$. We conjecture that the intersection of all linear subspaces (over $overlinek$) of minimal codimension $r$ contained in $X$, has codimension bounded above only in terms of $r$ and $d$. We prove this when either $dle3$ or $rle2$.
