Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a field with $q$ elements. In this note, we study some generalized arcs, that is, sets of $\mathbb{F}_q$-points in the projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2(\mathbb{F}_q)$ such that no six of them are on a conic. First, we…

We show explicit estimates on the number of $q$--rational points of an $F_q$--definable affine absolutely irreducible variety of the algebraic closure of the finite field $F_q$ of $q$ elements. Our estimates for a hypersurface significantly…

The problem of constructing curves with many points over finite fields has received considerable attention in the recent years. Using the class field theory approach, we construct new examples of curves ameliorating some of the known…

An $m$-general set in $AG(n,q)$ is a set of points such that any subset of size $m$ is in general position. A $3$-general set is often called a capset. In this paper, we study the maximum size of an $m$-general set in $AG(n,q)$,…

Given a surface F, we are interested in Z/2 valued invariants of immersions of F into R^3, which are constant on each connected component of the complement of the quadruple point discriminant in Imm(F,R^3). Such invariants will be called…

This paper makes a deep study of regular two-distance sets. A set of unit vectors $X$ in Euclidean space $\RR^n$ is said to be regular two-distance set if the inner product of any pair of its vectors is either $\alpha$ or $\beta$, and the…

Let $S = \{ {A_1},{A_2}, \cdots ,{A_n}\} $ be a finite point set in m-dimensional Euclidean space ${E^m}$, and$\left\| {{A_i}{A_j}} \right\|$ be the distance between $A_i$ and $A_j$. Define $\sigma (S) = \sum\limits_{1 \le i < j \le n}…

Let $f:\mathbb{K}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{K}^m$ be a generically finite polynomial map of degree $d$ between affine spaces. In arXiv:1411.5011 we proved that if $\mathbb{K}$ is the field of complex or real numbers, then the set $S_f$ of points…

For a given graph whose edges are labeled with general real numbers, we consider the set of functions from the vertex set into the Euclidean plane such that the distance between the images of neighbouring vertices is equal to the…

For $\mathrm{O}(\mathrm{q},k)$, the orthogonal group over a field $k$ of characteristic 2 with respect to a quadratic form $\mathrm{q}$, we discuss the isomorphism classes of fixed points of involutions. When the quadratic space is either…

In this paper we investigate the Erd\"os/Falconer distance conjecture for a natural class of sets statistically, though not necessarily arithmetically, similar to a lattice. We prove a good upper bound for spherical means that have been…

Given a measurable set $A\subset \mathbb R^d$ we consider the "large-distance graph" $\mathcal{G}_A$, on the ground set $A$, in which each pair of points from $A$ whose distance is bigger than 2 forms an edge. We consider the problems of…

In this article, for positive integers $n\geq m\geq 1$, the parameter spaces for the isomorphism classes of the generic point arrangements of cardinality $n$, and the antipodal point arrangements of cardinality $2n$ in the Eulidean space…

A set of vertices $S$ \emph{resolves} a graph $G$ if every vertex is uniquely determined by its vector of distances to the vertices in $S$. The \emph{metric dimension} of a graph $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a resolving set. In this…

We study maximal subalgebras of an arbitrary finite dimensional algebra over a field, and obtain full classification/description results of such algebras. This is done by first obtaining a complete classification in the semisimple case, and…

The numbers of $\mathbb{F}_q$-points of nonsingular hypersurfaces of a fixed degree in an odd-dimensional projective space are investigated, and an upper bound for them is given. Also we give the complete list of nonsingular hypersurfaces…

Let $r$ and $n$ be positive integers such that $r<n$, and $\mathbb{K}$ be an arbitrary field. We determine the maximal dimension for an affine subspace of $n$ by $n$ symmetric (or alternating) matrices with entries in $\mathbb{K}$ and with…

We survey the existing parts of a classification of finite groups generated by orthogonal transformations in a finite-dimensional Euclidean space whose fixed point subspace has codimension one or two and extend it to a complete…

We prove that admissible functions for Fubini-Study metrics on the complex projective space $P_{m}C$, of complex dimension $m$, invariant by a convenient automorphisms group, are lower bounded by a function going to minus infinity on the…

A rotation in a Euclidean space V is an orthogonal map on V which acts locally as a plane rotation with some fixed angle. We give a classification of all pairs of rotations in finite-dimensional Euclidean space, up to simultaneous…
