A\r\n$t$-$(n,k,\\lambda)$ design in a finite classical polar space of rank $n$ is a\r\ncollection $Y$ of totally isotropic $k$-spaces such that each totally isotropic\r\n$t$-space is contained in exactly $\\lambda$ members of $Y$. Nontrivial examples\r\nare currently only known for $t\\leq 2$. We show that $t$-$(n,k,\\lambda)$\r\ndesigns in polar spaces exist for all $t$ and $p$ provided that\r\n$k>\\frac{21}{2}t$ and $n$ is sufficiently large enough. The proof is based on a\r\nprobabilistic method by Kuperberg, Lovett, and Peled, and it is thus\r\nnonconstructive."}],"title":"Nontrivial $t$-designs in polar spaces exist for all $t$"}
