Zur Kennzeichnung der Kollineationen zwischen Quadriken

In projective spaces Pⁿ(K), Pⁿ(K) over commutative fields K, K of characteristic 2 we consider the quadrics Q^n–1Pⁿ(K), Q,^n–1Pⁿ(K) which have the same rank and index and each of which is different from its singularity space. A one-to-one correspondence of Q^n–1 onto Q'^n–1 can be extended uniquely to a collineation of Pⁿ(K) onto Pⁿ(K) if and only if satisfies the following condition: maps the (n–2)-dimensional quadrics of Q,^n–1 of maximal rankonto (n–2)-dimensional quadrics of Q^n–1 of maximal rank (Theorem 1).
