On $m$-ovoids of $Q^{+}(7,q)$ with $q$ odd

In this paper, we provide a construction of $(q+1)$-ovoids of the hyperbolic quadric $Q^{+}(7,q)$, $q$ an odd prime power, by glueing $(q+1)\mathrm{/}2$-ovoids of the elliptic quadric $Q^{-}(5,q)$. This is possible by controlling some intersection properties of (putative) $m$-ovoids of elliptic quadrics. It yields eventually $(q+1)$-ovoids of $Q^{+}(7,q)$ not coming from a $1$-system. Secondly, we also construct $m$-ovoids for $m\in \{2,4,6,8,10\}$ in $Q^{+}(7,3)$. Therefore we first investigate how to construct spreads of $\text{pg}(3,q)$ that have as many secants to an elliptic quadric as possible.
