A finite totally nonnegative Grassmannian

We introduce totally nonnegative Grassmannians over finite fields where an element of a finite field is nonnegative if it is a square of an element of the finite field. Explicit point counts are given in some special cases where we find new interpretations of sequences in the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS). We compare and contrast the theory of totally nonnegative Grassmannians over a finite field with the traditional case of the field of real numbers.
