Abstract

A finite set X\seq\RRnX \seq \RR^n with a weight function w:X\RR>0w : X \longrightarrow \RR_{>0} is called \emph{Euclidean tt-design} in \RRn\RR^n (supported by pp concentric spheres) if the following condition holds: i=1pw(Xi)SiSif(x)dσi(x)=xXw(x)f(x), \sum_{i=1}^p \frac{w(X_i)}{|S_i|}\int_{S_i} f(\boldsymbol x)d\sigma_i(\boldsymbol x) =\sum_{\boldsymbol x \in X}w(\boldsymbol x) f(\boldsymbol x), for any polynomial f(x)\mboxPol(\RRn)f(\boldsymbol x) \in \mbox{Pol}(\RR^n) of degree at most tt. Here Si\seq\RRnS_i \seq \RR^n is a sphere of radius ri0,r_i \geq 0, Xi=XSi,X_i=X \cap S_i, and σi(x)\sigma_i(\boldsymbol x) is an O(n)O(n)-invariant measure on SiS_i such that Si=rin1Sn1|S_i|=r_i^{n-1}|S^{n-1}|, with Si|S_i| is the surface area of SiS_i and Sn1|S^{n-1}| is a surface area of the unit sphere in \RRn\RR^n. Recently, Bajnok (2006) constructed tight Euclidean tt-designs in the plane (n=2n=2) for arbitrary tt and p.p. In this paper we show that for case t=6t=6 and p=2,p=2, tight Euclidean 66-designs constructed by Bajnok is the unique configuration in \RRn\RR^n, for 2n8.2 \leq n \leq 8.
