The "Perpendicular Bisectors Construction" is a natural way to seek a replacement for the circumcenter of a noncyclic quadrilateral in the plane. In this paper, we generalize this iterative construction to a construction on polytopes with…

We propose a method for the construction of sets of variable dimension strong non-overlapping matrices basing on any strong non-overlapping set of strings.

We survey techniques for constructing spaces with non-trivial self covers. These processes include methods for building low and high dimension continua which non-trivially self. We also discuss several related group theoretic and…

An $m$-$cover$ of lines of a finite projective space ${\rm PG}(r,q)$ (of a finite polar space $\cal P$) is a set of lines $\cal L$ of ${\rm PG}(r,q)$ (of $\cal P$) such that every point of ${\rm PG}(r,q)$ (of $\cal P$) contains $m$ lines of…

We obtain BPS configurations of the BLG theory and its variant including mass terms for scalars and fermions in addition to a background field with different world-volume and R-symmetries. Three cases are considered, with world-volume…

We compare three notions of genericity of separable metric structures. Our analysis provides a general model theoretic technique of showing that structures are generic in descriptive set theoretic (topological) sense and in measure…

Subspace codes are the $q$-analog of binary block codes in the Hamming metric. Here the codewords are vector spaces over a finite field. They have e.g. applications in random linear network coding, distributed storage, and cryptography. In…

In this article we construct new minimal intersection sets in ${\mathrm{AG}}(r,q^2)$ sporting three intersection numbers with hyperplanes; we then use these sets to obtain linear error correcting codes with few weights, whose weight…

We present here the AdS generalization of BPS preons, which were introduced as the hypothetical constituents of M-theory preserving all but one supersymmetries. Our construction, suggested by the relation of `lower dimensional preons' with…

In this paper, we study certain moduli spaces of vector bundles on the blowup of the projective plane in at least 10 very general points. Moduli spaces of sheaves on general type surfaces may be nonreduced, reducible and even disconnected.…

We present a uniform framework for constructing $3$-designs from $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb F_q)$-invariant subspaces of $\mathbb F_q[X,Y]_k$, the space of homogeneous polynomials of degree $k$. Given such a subspace $W$, we associate a…

We construct compact polyhedra with $m$-gonal faces whose links are generalized 3-gons. It gives examples of cocompact hyperbolic bildings of type $P(m,3)$. For $m=3$ we get compact spaces covered by Euclidean buildings of type $A_2$.

This article is a continuation of a previous article which concerned the splitting problem for subspaces of superspaces. We begin with a general account of projective superspaces. Subsequently, we specialise to subvarieties of `positive'…

In recent years, many useful applications of the polynomial method have emerged in finite geometry. Indeed, algebraic curves, especially those defined by R\'edei-type polynomials, are powerful in studying blocking sets. In this paper, we…

Extends previous work on block-partitioned mixed generalized inverses from two subsets of system variables with distinct consistency requirements to three subsets. Does not include any notable theoretical contributions.

For a given attractor black hole with generic D6-D4-D2-D0-charges in four dimensions we identify the set of supersymmetric branes, static or stationary in global coordinates, of the corresponding eleven-dimensional near horizon geometry.…

We give a sufficient condition in order that $n$ closed connected subsets in the $n$-dimensional real projective space admit a common multitangent hyperplane.

In 2023 we obtained a $Q$-polynomial structure for the projective geometry $L_N(q)$. In the present paper, we display a more general $Q$-polynomial structure for $L_N(q)$. Our new $Q$-polynomial structure is defined using a free parameter…

Let $\mathcal{M}(n,m;\F \bp^n)$ be the configuration space of $m$-tuples of pairwise distinct points in $\F \bp^n$, that is, the quotient of the set of $m$-tuples of pairwise distinct points in $\F \bp^n$ with respect to the diagonal action…

Using arbitrary bases for the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$, we obtain the generalized M\"obius transformations (GMTs), which are a class of bijections between the projective geometry $PG(n-1,q)$ and the set of roots…
