For an odd prime $p$ and $n=2m$, a new decimation $d=\frac{(p^{m}-1)^{2}}{2}+1$ of Niho type of $m$-sequences is presented. Using generalized Niho's Theorem, we show that the cross-correlation function between a $p$-ary $m$-sequence of…
A new method is used to resolve a long-standing conjecture of Niho concerning the crosscorrelation spectrum of a pair of maximum length linear recursive sequences of length $2^{2 m}-1$ with relative decimation $d=2^{m+2}-3$, where $m$ is…
Two families $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ of sets are said to be cross-intersecting if each member of $\mathcal{A}$ intersects each member of $\mathcal{B}$. For any two integers $n$ and $k$ with $0 \leq k \leq n$, let ${[n] \choose \leq…
The distribution of a given sequence in the set of all sequences with n ones and m = M - n zeros are found by relating the problem to the partitions of a natural number in m natural summands, taking into account the order. The formulas…
The family of lines $y=mx-2m-m^3$, are well known to be normal to the parabola $y^2=4x$. However, this family of lines is normal to a family of curves of which this parabola is just one member. Here, by solving an interesting first order…
We say that a sequence $\{x_n\}_{n \geq 1}$ in $[0,1)$ has Poissonian pair correlations if \begin{equation*} \lim_{N \rightarrow \infty} \frac{1}{N} \# \left\{ 1 \leq l \neq m \leq N \, : \, \left\lVert x_l-x_m \right\rVert < \frac{s}{N}…
In this paper, we characterize the average Hamming weight distribution of subsequences of maximum-length sequences ($m$-sequences). In particular, we consider all possible $m$-sequences of dimension $k$ and find the average number of…
Like other pseudorandom sequences, decimal sequences may be used in designing a Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) system. They appear to be ideally suited for this since the cross-correlation of d-sequences taken over the LCM of their…
Sequences with low auto-correlation property have been applied in code-division multiple access communication systems, radar and cryptography. Using the inverse Gray mapping, a quaternary sequence of even length $N$ can be obtained from two…
It is known that all resolution IV regular $2^{n-m}$ designs of run size $N=2^{n-m}$ where $5N/16<n<N/2$ must be projections of the maximal even design with $N/2$ factors and, therefore, are even designs. This paper derives a general and…
This letter proposes a direct construction for cross Z-complementary sets (CZCSs) with flexible lengths and a large zero correlation zone (ZCZ). CZCS is an extension of the cross Z-complementary pair (CZCP). The maximum possible ZCZ width…
We formulate a mean-field-like theory of long-range correlated $L$-alphabets sequences, which are actually systems with $(L-1)$ independent parameters. Depending on the values of these parameters, the variance on the average number of any…
Let $(x_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be a sequence on the torus $\mathbb{T}$ (normalized to length 1). A sequence $(x_n)$ is said to have Poissonian pair correlation if, for all $s>0$, $$ \lim_{N \rightarrow \infty}{ \frac{1}{N} \# \left\{ 1 \leq m…
We consider the problem of determining the cross-correlation values of the sequences in the families comprised of constant multiples of $M$-ary Sidelnikov sequences over $\mathbb{F}_q$, where $q$ is a power of an odd prime $p$. We show that…
A Barker sequence is a binary sequence for which all nontrivial aperiodic autocorrelations are either 0, 1 or -1. The only known Barker sequences have length 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 11 or 13. It is an old conjecture that no longer Barker sequences…
We introduce almost supplementary difference sets (ASDS). For odd $m$, certain ASDS in ${\mathbb Z}_m$ that have amicable incidence matrices are equivalent to quaternary sequences of odd length $m$ with optimal autocorrelation. As one…
In this paper infinite families of linear binary nested completely regular codes are constructed. They have covering radius $\rho$ equal to $3$ or $4$, and are $1/2^i$-th parts, for $i\in\{1,\ldots,u\}$ of binary (respectively, extended…
An $(a,b)$-difference necklace of length $n$ is a circular arrangement of the integers $0, 1, 2, \ldots , n-1$ such that any two neighbours have absolute difference $a$ or $b$. We prove that, subject to certain conditions on $a$ and $b$,…
A sequence $(x_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ on the torus $\mathbb{T}$ exhibits Poissonian pair correlation if for all $s\geq0$, \begin{equation*} \lim_{N\to\infty} \frac{1}{N}\#\left\{1\leq m\neq n \leq N : |x_m-x_n| \leq \frac{s}{N}\right\} = 2s.…
In this paper we extend the well-known investigations of Montgomery and Goldston & Montgomery, concerning the pair-correlation function and its relations with the distribution of primes in short intervals, to a more general version of the…
