In this article, we prove that if $\mathcal{D}$ is a $2$-design with $k=7$ admitting flag-transitive almost simple automorphism group with socle an alternating group, then $\mathcal{D}$ is $PG_{2}(3,2)$ with parameter set $(15,7,3)$ and…

Let $G$ be a (finite or infinite) group, and let $K_G = \mathrm{Cay} ( G;G \smallsetminus \{1\} )$ be the complete graph with vertex set $G$, considered as a Cayley graph of $G$. Being a Cayley graph, it has a natural edge-colouring by sets…

Let p be an odd prime, F the field of p elements and G a finite abelian p-group with an arbitrary involutory automorphism. Extend this automorphism to the group algebra FG and consider the unitary and the symmetric normalized units of FG.…

Based upon properties of ordinal length, we introduce a new class of modules, the binary modules, and study their endomorphism ring. The nilpotent endomorphisms form a two-sided ideal, and after factoring this out, we get a commutative…

In this paper, several conjectures proposed in [2] are studied, involving the equivalence and duality of polycyclic codes associated with trinomials. According to the results, we give methods to construct isodual and self-dual polycyclic…

We prove that the displacement group of the dihedral quandle with n elements is isomorphic to the group generated by rotations of the n/2-gon when n is even and the n-gon when n is odd. We additionally show that any quandle with at least…

A self-dual algebras is one isomorphic as a module to the opposite of its dual; a quasi self-dual algebra is one whose cohomology with coefficients in itself is isomorphic to that with coefficients in the opposite of its dual. For these…

Abelian codes and complementary dual codes form important classes of linear codes that have been extensively studied due to their rich algebraic structures and wide applications. In this paper, a family of abelian codes with complementary…

We work out axioms for the duals $G\subset U_N^+$ of the finite quantum permutation groups, $F\subset S_N^+$ with $|F|<\infty$, and we discuss how the basic theory of such quantum permutation groups partly simplifies in the dual setting. We…

Self-dual codes are important because many of the best codes known are of this type and they have a rich mathematical theory. Topics covered in this survey include codes over F_2, F_3, F_4, F_q, Z_4, Z_m, shadow codes, weight enumerators,…

Self-dual binary linear codes have been extensively studied and classified for length n <= 40. However, little attention has been paid to linear codes that coincide with their orthogonal complement when the underlying inner product is not…

If $G$ is a finite group and $k =q>2$ or $k=q+1$ for a prime power $q$ then, for infinitely many integers $v$, there is a $2$-$(v,k,1)$-design ${\bf D}$ for which ${\rm Aut} {\bf D}\cong G$.

For a finite dimensional algebra $A$, we prove that the bounded homotopy category of projective $A$-modules and the bounded derived category of $A$-modules are dual to each other via certain categories of locally-finite cohomological…

Let $A$ be an $n$-dimensional algebra over a field $k$ and $a(A)$ its quantum symmetry semigroup. We prove that the automorphisms group ${\rm Aut}_{\rm Alg} (A)$ of $A$ is isomorphic to the group $U \bigl( G(a (A)^{\rm o} ) \bigl)$ of all…

Let $F, G \in \mathbb{Z}[X, Y]$ be binary forms of degree $\geq 3$, non-zero discriminant and with automorphism group isomorphic to $D_4$. If $F(\mathbb{Z}^2) = G(\mathbb{Z}^2)$, we show that $F$ and $G$ are ${\rm GL}(2,…

We show that there are good long binary generalized quasi-cyclic self-dual (either Type I or Type II) codes.

Any group $G$ gives rise to a 2-group of inner automorphisms, $\mathrm{INN}(G)$. It is an old result by Segal that the nerve of this is the universal $G$-bundle. We discuss that, similarly, for every 2-group $G_{(2)}$ there is a 3-group…

We investigate the electromagnetic duality properties of an abelian gauge theory on a compact oriented four-manifold by analysing the behaviour of a generalised partition function under modular transformations of the dimensionless coupling…

A binary linear code $C$ is a $\mathbb{Z}_2$-double cyclic code if the set of coordinates can be partitioned into two subsets such that any cyclic shift of the coordinates of both subsets leaves invariant the code. These codes can be…

This paper contributes to construct double circulant self-dual codes by sextic cyclotomy. Generator matrixes of a family of pure double circulant codes and a family of double circulant codes with boundary are formed from sextic cyclotomic…
