==Cases==
===Symplectic polar space===
 
An ovoid of <math>W_{2 n-1}(q)</math> (a symplectic polar space of rank ''n'') would contain <math>q^n+1</math> points.   
However it only has an ovoid if and only <math>n=2</math> and ''q'' is even. In that case, when the polar space is embedded into <math>PG(3,q)</math> the classical way, it is also an ovoid in the projective geometry sense.
 
===Hermitian polar space===
 
Ovoids of <math>H(2n,q^2)(n\geq 2)</math> and <math>H(2n+1,q^2)(n\geq 1)</math> would contain <math>q^{2n+1}+1</math> points.
 
===Hyperbolic quadrics===
 
An ovoid of a hyperbolic quadric<math> Q^{+}(2n-1,q)(n\geq 2)</math>would contain <math>q^{n-1}+1</math> points.
 
===Parabolic quadrics===
 
An ovoid of a parabolic quadric <math>Q(2 n,q)(n\geq 2)</math> would contain <math>q^n+1</math> points. For <math>n=2</math>, it is easy to see to obtain an ovoid by cutting the parabolic quadric with a hyperplane, such that the intersection is an elliptic quadric.  The intersection is an ovoid. 
If ''q'' is even, <math>Q(2n,q)</math> is isomorphic (as polar space) with <math>W_{2 n-1}(q)</math>, and thus due to the above, it has no ovoid for <math>n\geq 3</math>.
 
===Elliptic quadrics===
 
An ovoid of an elliptic quadric <math>Q^{-}(2n+1,q)(n\geq 2)</math>would contain <math>q^{n}+1</math> points.
