Abstract

Let G be a (connected) reductive group defined over a finite field F q (q odd) with a given involution θ:GG defined over F q. The pair (G, θ) will be called a symmetric space (over F q), we shall fix a closed subgroup K of the fixed point set G θ such that K is defined over F q and K contains the identity component (G θ)0 of .
