Building on the results of our previous work on Euclidean leaper tours, considering all integers $k>1$ and $h>0$, we study the existence of Hamiltonian cycles in the vertex set $C(2,k):=\{0,1\}^k$ of the $k$-dimensional hypercube when the…
We study the minimum degree necessary to guarantee the existence of perfect and almost-perfect triangle-tilings in an $n$-vertex graph $G$ with sublinear independence number. In this setting, we show that if $\delta(G) \ge n/3 + o(n)$ then…
Edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent quadrilaterals are completely classified in a series of three papers. This second one applies the powerful tool of trigonometric Diophantine equations to classify the case of…
This paper proves the following results: Besides parallelograms and centrally symmetric hexagons, there is no other convex domain which can form a two-, three- or four-fold lattice tiling in the Euclidean plane. If a centrally symmetric…
Lattice tilings of $\mathbb{Z}^n$ by limited-magnitude error balls correspond to linear perfect codes under such error models and play a crucial role in flash memory applications. In this work, we establish three main results. First, we…
This paper introduces two tiles whose tilings form a one-parameter family of tilings which can all be seen as digitization of two-dimensional planes in the four-dimensional Euclidean space. This family contains the Ammann-Beenker tilings as…
We consider the problem of describing the typical (possibly) non-linear code of minimum distance bounded from below over a large alphabet. We concentrate on block codes with the Hamming metric and on subspace codes with the injection…
We describe a method to classify crystallographic tilings of the Euclidean and hyperbolic planes by tiles whose stabiliser group contains translation isometries or whose topology is not that of a closed disk. We tackle this problem from two…
We introduce the notion of tiling spaces for metric spaces. The class of tiling spaces contains the Euclidean spaces, the middle-third Cantor set, and various self-similar spaces appearing in fractal geometry. For doubling tiling spaces, we…
It is well-known that the question of whether a given finite region can be tiled with a given set of tiles is NP-complete. We show that the same is true for the right tromino and square tetromino on the square lattice, or for the right…
The 1-2-3 conjecture has been solved positively in 2024 for finite graphs and by extension for infinite graphs which are locally finite. The solution is non-constructive, and finding explicit solutions for large (or infinite) graphs is very…
The Euclidean hull of a linear code $C$ is the intersection of $C$ with its Euclidean dual $C^\perp$. The hull with low dimensions gets much interest due to its crucial role in determining the complexity of algorithms for computing the…
The perfect matching complex of a simple graph $G$ is a simplicial complex having facets (maximal faces) as the perfect matchings of $G$. This article discusses the perfect matching complex of polygonal line tilings and the $\left(2 \times…
Pairing-based cryptographic schemes require so-called pairing-friendly elliptic curves, which have special properties. The set of pairing-friendly elliptic curves that are generated by given polynomials form a complete family. Although a…
Kautz and de Bruijn graphs have a high degree of connectivity which makes them ideal candidates for massively parallel computer network topologies. In order to realize a practical computer architecture based on these graphs, it is useful to…
A rational triangle has rational edge-lengths and area; a rational tetrahedron has rational faces and volume; either is Heronian when its edge-lengths are integer, and proper when its content is nonzero. A variant proof is given, via…
An odd perfect number $N$ is said to be given in Eulerian form if $N = {q^k}{n^2}$ where $q$ is prime with $q \equiv k \equiv 1 \pmod 4$ and $\gcd(q,n) = 1$. Similarly, an even perfect number $M$ is said to be given in Euclidean form if $M…
The study of tilings is a major problem in many mathematical instances, which is studied in two main different approaches: when considering the existence (or obstructions to the existence) of a tiling with a given tile and the other…
This paper is concerned with a covering problem of Euclidean space by a particular arrangement of cones that are not necessarily full and are allowed to overlap. The problem provides an equivalent geometric reformulation of the solvability…
We prove that every $1$-error-correcting code over a finite field can be embedded in a $1$-perfect code of some larger length. Embedding in this context means that the original code is a subcode of the resulting $1$-perfect code and can be…
