We consider $q$-ary (linear and nonlinear) block codes with exactly two distances: $d$ and $d+\delta$. Several combinatorial constructions of optimal such codes are given. In the linear (but not necessary projective) case, we prove that…

There has been enormous progress in the last few years in designing neural networks that respect the fundamental symmetries and coordinate freedoms of physical law. Some of these frameworks make use of irreducible representations, some make…

Let $A$ and $B$ be sets of nonnegative integers. For a positive integer $n$ let $R_{A}(n)$ denote the number of representations of $n$ as the sum of two terms from $A$. Let $\displaystyle s_{A}(x) = \max_{n \le x}R_{A}(n)$ and…

Let $\{c_k\}$ be a nonincreasing sequence of positive numbers (more general classes of sequences are also considered), and $\alpha>0$ be not an integer. We find necessary and sufficient conditions for the uniform convergence of the series…

We prove that any graph on $n$ vertices with max degree $d$ has at most $q{d+1 \choose 3}+{r \choose 3}$ triangles, where $n = q(d+1)+r$, $0 \le r \le d$. This resolves a conjecture of Gan-Loh-Sudakov.

A polytope in a finite-dimensional normed space is subequilateral if the length in the norm of each of its edges equals its diameter. Subequilateral polytopes occur in the study of two unrelated subjects: surface energy minimizing cones and…

In the present article, we study Bell based Euler polynomial of order {\alpha} and investigate some useful correlation formula, summation formula and derivative formula. Also, we introduce some relation of string number of the second kind.…

We study the maximal number of pairwise distinct columns in a $\Delta$-modular integer matrix with $m$ rows. Recent results by Lee et al. provide an asymptotically tight upper bound of $O(m^2)$ for fixed $\Delta$. We complement this and…

We consider the problem of finding $A_2(n,\{d_1,d_2\})$ defined as the maximal size of a binary (non-linear) code of length $n$ with two distances $d_1$ and $d_2$. Binary codes with distances $d$ and $d+2$ of size…

Let $\mathcal{L}$ be the closure of the set of all real numbers $\alpha$, such that there exist infinitely many integers $n$, such that $\alpha=\log\frac{d(n+1)}{d(n)}$, where $d$ is the number of divisors of $n$. We give improved lower…

We develop a new tool, namely polynomial and linear algebraic methods, for studying systems of word equations. We illustrate its usefulness by giving essentially simpler proofs of several hard problems. At the same time we prove extensions…

We investigate integer numbers which possess at the same time the properties to be triangulars and squares, that are, numbers $a$ for which do exist integers $m$ and $n$ such that $ a = n^2 = \frac{m \cdot (m+1)}{2} $. In particular, we are…

We study the problem of determining the maximum size of a spherical two-distance set with two fixed angles (one acute and one obtuse) in high dimensions. Let $N_{\alpha,\beta}(d)$ denote the maximum number of unit vectors in $\mathbb R^d$…

Let $ \prod_{i=1}^d (X-\alpha_i Y) \in{\mathbb C}[X,Y]$ be a binary form and let $\epsilon_1,\dots,\epsilon_d$ be nonzero complex numbers. We consider the family of binary forms $ \prod_{i=1}^d (X-\alpha_i \epsilon_i^aY)$, $a\in {\mathbb…

Christoph, Dragani\'{c}, Gir\~{a}o, Hurley, Michel, and M\"{u}yesser conjectured that, when $d\mid n$, the expected number of cycles in a uniformly random cycle-factor of a directed $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices is uniquely maximised by…

Roughly speaking, a near-best (abbr. NB) quasi-interpolant (abbr. QI) is an approximation operator of the form $Q_af=\sum_{\alpha\in A} \Lambda_\alpha (f) B_\alpha$ where the $B_\alpha$'s are B-splines and the $\Lambda_\alpha (f)$'s are…

In this paper, we explore the interrelationship between Eulerian numbers and B splines. Specifically, using B splines, we give the explicit formulas of the refined Eulerian numbers, and descents polynomials. Moreover, we prove that the…

The Tur\'an number $ex(n,H)$ is the maximum number of edges in an $H$-free graph on $n$ vertices. Let $T$ be any tree. The odd-ballooning of $T$, denoted by $T_o$, is a graph obtained by replacing each edge of $T$ with an odd cycle…

The planar Tur\'an number, $ex_\mathcal{P}(n,H)$, is the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex planar graph which does not contain $H$ as a subgraph. The topic of extremal planar graphs was initiated by Dowden (2016). He obtained sharp…

The dimension of a block design is the maximum positive integer $d$ such that any $d$ of its points are contained in a proper subdesign. Pairwise balanced designs PBD$(v,K)$ have dimension at least two as long as not all points are on the…
