Embedding dimensions of matrices whose entries are indefinite distances in the pseudo-Euclidean space
Abstract
A finite set of the Euclidean space is called an -distance set provided the number of Euclidean distances in the set is . Determining the largest possible -distance set for the Euclidean space of a given dimension is challenging. This problem was solved only when dealing with small values of and dimensions. Lison\v{e}k (1997) achieved the classification of the largest 2-distance sets for dimensions up to , using computer assistance and graph representation theory. In this study, we consider a theory analogous to these results of Lison\v{e}k for the pseudo-Euclidean space . We consider an -indefinite-distance set in a pseudo-Euclidean space that uses the value instead of the Euclidean distance. We develop a representation theory for symmetric matrices in the context of -indefinite-distance sets, which includes or improves the results of Euclidean -distance sets with large values. Moreover, we classify the largest possible -indefinite-distance sets for small dimensions.
