A maximal arc of degree k in a finite projective plane P of order q = ks is a set of (q-s+1)k points that meets every line of P in either k or 0 points. The collection of the nonempty intersections of a maximal arc with the lines of P is a…

Under mild assumptions, we characterise modules with projective resolutions of length n in the target category of filtrated K-theory over a finite topological space in terms of two conditions involving certain Tor-groups. We show that the…

Let $A_q$ be the alternating central extension of the q-Onsager algebra, a comodule algebra over the quantum loop algebra of $sl_2$. We classify one-dimensional representations of $A_q$, and show that spin-j K-operators constructed in…

New upper bounds on the smallest size t_{2}(2,q) of a complete arc in the projective plane PG(2,q) are obtained for 853 <= q <= 4561 and q\in T1\cup T2 where T1={173,181,193,229,243,257,271,277,293,343,373,409,443,449,457,…

Let $\ell_1,\ell_2,\dots$ be a countable collection of lines in ${\mathbb R}^d$. For any $t \in [0,1]$ we construct a compact set $\Gamma\subset{\mathbb R}^d$ with Hausdorff dimension $d-1+t$ which projects injectively into each $\ell_i$,…

Let us consider a specialization of an untwisted quantum affine algebra of type $ADE$ at a nonzero complex number, which may or may not be a root of unity. The Grothendieck ring of its finite dimensional representations has two bases,…

We study the flat CR twistor model $Q^{2,2}\subset \mathbb{CP}^3$ by explicit projective methods. Using the anti-holomorphic involution $j$ associated with the twistor fibration, we classify the projective lines contained in $Q^{2,2}$ into…

In each of the three projective planes coordinatised by the Knuth's binary semifield $\mathbb{K}_n$ of order $2^n$ and two of its Knuth derivatives, we exhibit a new family of infinitely many translation hyperovals. In particular, when…

We describe new classification results in the theory of generalized quadrangles (= Tits-buildings of rank $2$ and type $\mathbb{B}_2$), more precisely in the (large) sub theory of skew translation generalized quadrangles ("STGQs"). Some of…

Clifford geometric algebras of multivectors are introduced which exhibit a bilinear form which is not necessarily symmetric. Looking at a subset of bi-vectors in CL(K^{2n},B), we proof that theses elements generate the Hecke algebra…

We give an interpretation of the $(q,t)$-deformed Cartan matrices of finite type and their inverses in terms of bigraded modules over the generalized preprojective algebras of Langlands dual type in the sense of Gei\ss-Leclerc-Schr\"{o}er…

In the period 1994-1999 Thas wrote a series of three papers on generalized quadrangles of order $(s, s^2)$. In this Part IV we classify all finite translation generalized quadrangles of order $(s, s^2)$ having a kernel of size at least 3,…

The $\imath$Hall algebra of the projective line is by definition the twisted semi-derived Ringel-Hall algebra of the category of $1$-periodic complexes of coherent sheaves on the projective line. This $\imath$Hall algebra is shown to…

In the previous works of the authors, a step-by-step algorithm FOP which uses any fixed order of points in the projective plane $\mathrm{PG}(2,q)$ is proposed to construct small complete arcs. In each step, the algorithm adds to a current…

Let $Q$ be a tree-type quiver, $\mathbf{k} Q$ its path algebra, and $\lambda$ a nonzero element in the field $\mathbf{k}$. We construct irreducible morphisms in the Auslander-Reiten quiver of the transjective component of the bounded…

We find a new highly symmetrical and very numerous class (millions of non-isomorphic sets) of 4-dim Kochen-Specker (KS) vector sets. Due to the nature of their geometrical symmetries, they cannot be obtained from previously known ones. We…

A $t\text{-}(n,K,\lambda;q)$ design, also called the $q$-analog of a $t$-wise balanced design, is a set ${\mathcal B}$ of subspaces with dimensions contained in $K$ of the $n$-dimensional vector space ${\mathbb F}_q^n$ over the finite field…

In this paper, we classify all commutative weakly distance-regular digraphs of girth $g$ and one type of arcs under the assumption that $p_{(1,g-1),(1,g-1)}^{(2,g-2)}\geq k_{1,g-1}-2$. In consequence, we recover [13, Theorem 1.1] as a…

Given a smooth plane quartic curve C over a field k of characteristic 0, with Jacobian variety J, and a marked rational point P of C(k), we construct a reductive group G and a G-variety X, together with an injection J(k)/2J(k) -> G(k)\X(k).…

If an Fq-linear set LU in a projective space is defined by a vector subspace U which is linear over a proper superfield of Fq, then all of its points have weight at least 2. It is known that the converse of this statement holds for linear…
