Partial difference sets from quadratic forms and $p$-ary weakly regular bent functions

Combinatorics 2011-08-02 v2

Abstract

We generalize the construction of affine polar graphs in two different ways to obtain new partial difference sets and amorphic association schemes. The first generalization uses a combination of quadratic forms and uniform cyclotomy. In the second generalization we replace the quadratic form in the affine polar graph construction by higher degree homogeneous functions that are pp-ary weakly regular bent. The negative Latin square type partial difference sets arising from the first generalization are new.
