Abstract:DISCLAIMER: Due to an error in the literature, we cannot be sure that the conclusions drawn in this paper are correct.
The goal of this note is to connect some interesting results in the literature on algebraic graph theory and finite geometry. In 1999, Weng gave an almost complete classification of classical distance-regular graphs of negative type with diameter at least 4. He proved that these graphs are either dual polar graphs of Hermitian polar spaces, Hermitian forms graphs, or fall into a last category. It was recently proved by Yian et al. that the latter category does not exist when the diameter equals 3, which by Weng's results proves that they do not exist for bigger diameter. Using a result of Vanhove, this proves that certain hemisystems in Hermitian polar spaces cannot exist.
