We prove that the set of orthogonal separable coordinates on an arbitrary (pseudo-)Riemannian manifold carries a natural structure of a projective variety, equipped with an action of the isometry group. This leads us to propose a new,…

I analyze an unexpected connection between multiple orthogonal polynomials, $d$-orthogonal polynomials, production matrices and branched continued fractions. This work can be viewed as a partial extension of Viennot's combinatorial theory…

An imprimitive symmetric indecomposable association scheme of rank 5 is said to be Higmanian. A divisible design graph is a graph whose adjacency matrix is an incidence matrix of a symmetric divisible design. We establish conditions which…

Divisible design digraphs are constructed from skew balanced generalized weighing matrices and generalized Hadamard matrices. Commutative and non-commutative association schemes are shown to be attached to the constructed divisible design…

Discrete orthogonal matrices have several applications in information technology, such as in coding and cryptography. It is often challenging to generate discrete orthogonal matrices. A common approach widely in use is to discretize…

First examples of symmetric Hadamard matrices of orders 508 and 764 are constructed. The method used is known as the propus construction. A conjecture regarding this method is formally proposed but it appears implicitly in three previous…

Asymptotic Schur orthogonality relations are for irreducible unitary representations of locally compact groups that need not be discrete series, where $L^2$ pairing of matrix coefficients with respect to Haar measure is replaced by a limit…

Matrices are built and designed by applying procedures from lower order matrices. Matrix tensor products, direct sums or multiplication of matrices are such procedures and a matrix built from these is said to be a {\em separable} matrix. A…

Constructions of regular heptagon and triskaidecagon by trisection of an angle are well known. An elegant construction of the heptagon by S. Adlaj shows a 3-fold symmetry related to a Galois group. Based on the latter construction, in this…

We present a new method for manufacturing complex-valued harmonic morphisms from a wide class of Riemannian Lie groups. This yields new solutions from an important family of homogeneous Hadamard manifolds. We also give a new method for…

The orthogonal groups are a series of simple Lie groups associated to symmetric bilinear forms. There is no analogous series associated to symmetric trilinear forms. We introduce an infinite dimensional group-like object that can be viewed…

A certain family of orthogonal groups (called "Clifford groups" by G. E. Wall) has arisen in a variety of different contexts in recent years. These groups have a simple definition as the automorphism groups of certain generalized…

In this paper, using group actions, we introduce a new method for constructing partial geometric designs (sometimes referred to as $1\frac{1}{2}$-designs). Using this new method, we construct several infinite families of partial geometric…

We obtain the most general ensemble of qubits, for which it is possible to design a universal Hadamard gate. These states when geometrically represented on the Bloch sphere, give a new trajectory. We further consider some Hadamard `type' of…

Orthogonal surfaces are nice mathematical objects which have interesting connections to various fields, e.g., integer programming, monomial ideals and order dimension. While orthogonal surfaces in one or two dimensions are rather trivial…

In this article, we introduce a new family of groups, called Chambord groups and constructed from braided strand diagrams associated to specific semigroup presentations. It includes the asymptotically rigid mapping class groups previously…

We study the relation between certain non-degenerate lower Hessenberg infinite matrices $\mathcal{G}$ and the existence of sequences of orthogonal polynomials with respect to Sobolev inner products. In other words, we extend the well-known…

This note serves as a short and reader-friendly introduction to twisted Brin-Thompson groups, which were recently constructed by Belk and the author to provide a family of simple groups with a variety of interesting properties. Most…

We provide a new tableau model from which one can easily deduce the characters of finite-dimensional irreducible polynomial representations of the special orthogonal group $SO_n(\mathbb{C})$. This model originates from the representation…

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…
