For the symplectic dual polar space DW(6,q), Cooperstein and Pasini have recently proved no ovoid exists if q is odd. Earlier, Shult has proved the same for even q. In this paper, we prove the non-existence of ovoids of DW(6,q) independently from the parity of q.7 pagesAlgebraic GeometryCombinatorics51A15, 51A50DW(6,n), n>2, has no ovoid: A single prooftext
