Abstract

Let XX be a finite set in a complex sphere of dd dimension. Let D(X)D(X) be the set of usual inner products of two distinct vectors in XX. A set XX is called a complex spherical ss-code if the cardinality of D(X)D(X) is ss and D(X)D(X) contains an imaginary number. We would like to classify the largest possible ss-codes for given dimension dd. In this paper, we consider the problem for the case s=3s=3. Roy and Suda (2014) gave a certain upper bound for the cardinalities of 33-codes. A 33-code XX is said to be tight if XX attains the bound. We show that there exists no tight 33-code except for dimensions 11, 22. Moreover we make an algorithm to classify the largest 33-codes by considering representations of oriented graphs. By this algorithm, the largest 33-codes are classified for dimensions 11, 22, 33 with a current computer.
