In this paper, we obtain new lower and upper bounds for the problem of bipartite biregular cages. Moreover, for girth $6$, we give the exact parameters of the $(m,n;6)$-bipartite biregular cages when $n\equiv -1$ $\pmod m$ using the…

In this article we construct uncountably many new homogeneous locally finite Steiner triple systems of countably infinite order as Fra\"{\i}ss\'{e} limits of classes of finite Steiner triple systems avoiding certain subsystems. The…

In this article, we show the existence of large sets $\operatorname{LS}_2[3](2,k,v)$ for infinitely many values of $k$ and $v$. The exact condition is $v \geq 8$ and $0 \leq k \leq v$ such that for the remainders $\bar{v}$ and $\bar{k}$ of…

Given $n$ items with at most $d$ of which being positive, instead of testing these items individually, the theory of combinatorial group testing aims to identify all positive items using as few tests as possible. This paper is devoted to a…

For any integer $n\geq 2$, we construct an infinite family of Stein fillable contact $(4n-1)$-manifolds each of which admits infinitely many pairwise homotopy inequivalent Stein fillings.

This is the second in a series of papers which give an explicit description of the reconstruction algebra as a quiver with relations; these algebras arise naturally as geometric generalizations of preprojective algebras of extended Dynkin…

A disjoint $(v,k,k-1)$ difference family in an additive group $G$ is a partition of $G\setminus\{0\}$ into sets of size $k$ whose lists of differences cover, altogether, every non-zero element of $G$ exactly $k-1$ times. The main purpose of…

Kirkman triple systems (KTSs) are among the most popular combinatorial designs and their existence has been settled a long time ago. Yet, in comparison with Steiner triple systems, little is known about their automorphism groups. In…

In this paper we illustrate the use of the results from [1] proving that $D(4)$-triple $\{a, b, c\}$ with $a < b < a + 57\sqrt{a}$ has a unique extension to a quadruple with a larger element. This furthermore implies that $D(4)$-pair $\{a,…

A set $\{a_i\:|\: 1\leq i \leq k\}$ of non-negative integers is a Golomb ruler if differences $a_i-a_j$, for any $i \neq j$, are all distinct.All finite Sidon sets are Golomb rulers, and vice versa. A set of $I$ disjoint Golomb rulers (DGR)…

In this paper various Steiner systems $S(2,k,v)$ for $k = 6$ are collected and enumerated for specific constructions. In particular, two earlier unknown types of $1$-rotational designs are found for the groups $SL(2,5)$ and $((\mathbb Z_3…

In this paper we use the Recursion Theorem to show the existence of various infinite sequences and sets. Our main result is that there is an increasing sequence e_0, e_1, e_2 .. such that W_{e_n}={e_{n+1}} for every n. Similarly, we prove…

The task of identifying resolving sets has been extensively studied due to its wide relevance in fields such as chemistry, robot navigation, combinatorial optimization, pattern recognition, and image processing. These applications have…

We prove several structural properties of Steiner triple systems (STS) of order 3w+3 that include one or more transversal subdesigns TD(3,w). Using an exhaustive search, we find that there are 2004720 isomorphism classes of STS(21)…

We discuss group divisible designs with block size four and type $g^u b^1 (gu/2)^1$, where $u = 5$, 6 and 7. For integers $a$ and $b$, we prove the following. (i) A 4-GDD of type $(4a)^5 b^1 (10a)^1$ exists if and only if $a \ge 1$, $b…

It is well known that, whenever $k$ divides $n$, the complete $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices can be partitioned into disjoint perfect matchings. Equivalently, the set of $k$-subsets of an $n$-set can be partitioned into parallel…

We prove that if $A$ is a string algebra then there are not three irreducible morphisms between indecomposable $A$-modules such that its composition belongs to $\Re^{6} \backslash \Re^{7}$, whenever the compositions of two of them are not…

A collection of sets is {\em intersecting} if every two members have nonempty intersection. We describe the structure of intersecting families of $r$-sets of an $n$-set whose size is quite a bit smaller than the maximum ${n-1 \choose r-1}$…

It is proved that the number of 9-regular partitions of n is divisible by 3 when n is congruent to 3 mod 4, and by 6 when n is congruent to 13 mod 16. An infinite family of congruences mod 3 holds in other progressions modulo powers of 4…

In this paper, we investigate the construction of orthogonal product states with strong nonlocality in multiparty quantum systems. Firstly, we focus on the tripartite system and propose a general set of orthogonal product states exhibiting…
