Abstract

A complete overview of all orthogonality-preserving Plücker transformations in finite dimensional hyperbolic spaces with dimension other than three is given. In the Cayley-Klein model of such a hyperbolic space all Plücker transformations are induced by collineations of the ambient projective space.
