In this paper the André/Bruck and Bose representation of conics in Baer subplanes of PG(2,q 2) is determined. It is proved that a non-degenerate conic in a Baer subplane of PG(2,q 2) is a normal rational curve of order 2, 3, or 4 in the André/Bruck and Bose representation. Moreover the three possibilities (classes) are examined and we classify the conics in each classen© 2002 Springer, Part of Springer Science+Business MediaBaer subplane ; conic ; Desarguesian planeJournal article002002139410.1007/PL00012531
