This article looks at the eigenvalues of magic squares generated by the MATLAB's magic($n$) function. The magic($n$) function constructs doubly even ($n = 4k$) magic squares, singly even ($n = 4k+2$) magic squares and odd ($n = 2k+1$) magic…
One of the classical problems in group theory is determining the set of positive integers $n$ such that every group of order $n$ has a particular property $P$, such as cyclic or abelian. We first present the Sylow theorems and the idea of…
In recent work, M. Schneider and the first author studied a curious class of integer partitions called "sequentially congruent" partitions: the $m$th part is congruent to the $(m+1)$th part modulo $m$, with the smallest part congruent to…
In this article, we study the metacyclic p-group codes arising from finite semisimple group algebras. In [CM25], we studied group codes arising from metacyclic groups with order divisible by two distinct odd primes. In the current work, we…
Mersenne numbers and Fermat numbers are two hot and difficult issues in number theory. This paper constructs a special group for every positive odd number other than 1, and discovers an algorithm for determining the multiplicative order of…
We report the results of a computer investigation of sets of mutually orthogonal latin squares (MOLS) of small order. For $n\le9$ we 1. Determine the number of orthogonal mates for each species of latin square of order $n$. 2. Calculate the…
When doubly-affine matrices such as Latin and magic squares with a single non-zero eigenvalue are powered up they become constant matrices after a few steps. The process of compounding squares of orders m and n can then be used to generate…
We present an oracle factorisation algorithm which finds a nontrivial factor of almost all positive integers $n$ based on the knowledge of the number of points on certain elliptic curves in residue rings modulo $n$.
A proper Euler's magic matrix is an integer $n\times n$ matrix $M\in\mathbb Z^{n\times n}$ such that $M\cdot M^t=\gamma\cdot I$ for some nonzero constant $\gamma$, the sum of the squares of the entries along each of the two main diagonals…
This paper studies a generalization of magic squares to finite projective space $\mathbb{P}^n(q)$. We classify at all functions from $\mathbb{P}^n(q)$ into a finite field where the sum along any $r$-flat is $0$. In doing so we show…
After attaching explicitly to the M\"obius strip an invertible module over the ring of real polynomial functions on the real circle, we expound as directly as possible the many faces and the main algebraic properties of invertible modules.…
We study $n$-dimensional matrices with $\{0,1\}$-entries ($n$-cubes) such that all their $2$-dimensional slices are incidence matrices of symmetric designs. A known construction of these objects obtained from difference sets is generalized…
The goal of this paper is to consider some relations between varieties of representations of groups and varieties of associative algebras. The main emphasis is put on the varieties of representations of groups induced by the varieties of…
Let $M(n)$ denote the number of distinct entries in the $n \times n$ multiplication table. The function $M(n)$ has been studied by Erd\H{o}s, Tenenbaum, Ford, and others, but the asymptotic behaviour of $M(n)$ as $n \to \infty$ is not known…
We construct a moduli space for the connected subgroups of an algebraic group and the corresponding universal family. Morphisms from an algebraic variety to this moduli space correspond to flat families of connected algebraic subgroups…
In this paper, we study the concept of "binary color-coded magic squares" by assigning two distinct colors to the even and odd numbers within a magic square. We investigate the uniqueness of patterns within these squares using three…
The purpose of this work is to analyse a family of mutually orthogonal polynomials on the unit ball with respect to an inner product which includes an additional term on the sphere. First, we will get connection formulas relating classical…
In this note, we establish an equivalence of categories between the category of all eight-dimensional composition algebras with any given quadratic form $n$ over a field $k$ of characteristic not two, and a category arising from an action…
By exploiting relationships between the values taken by ordinary characters of symmetric groups we prove two theorems in the modular representation theory of the symmetric group. 1. The decomposition matrices of symmetric groups in odd…
Over the last decade, Sudoku, a combinatorial number-placement puzzle, has become a favorite pastimes of many all around the world. In this puzzle, the task is to complete a partially filled $9 \times 9$ square with numbers 1 through 9,…
