We obtain new bounds for (a variant of) the Furstenberg set problem for high dimensional flats over $\mathbb{R}^n$. In particular, let $F\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $1\leq k \leq n-1$, $s\in (0,k]$, and $t\in (0,k(n-k)]$. We say that $F$ is a…
We consider surjective endomorphisms f of degree > 1 on the projective n-space with n = 3, and f^{-1}-stable hypersurfaces V. We show that V is a hyperplane (i.e., deg(V) = 1) but with four possible exceptions; it is conjectured that deg(V)…
A finite set of the Euclidean space is called an $s$-distance set provided the number of Euclidean distances in the set is $s$. Determining the largest possible $s$-distance set for the Euclidean space of a given dimension is challenging.…
A vector space over a field $\mathbb{F}$ is a set $V$ together with two binary operations, called vector addition and scalar multiplication. It is standard practice to think of a Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$ as an $n$-dimensional real…
Superspace is considered as space of parameters of the supercoherent states defining the basis for oscillator-like unitary irreducible representations of the generalized superconformal group SU(2m,2n/2N) in the field of quaternions H. The…
We consider sketch vectors of geometric objects $J$ through the \mindist function \[ v_i(J) = \inf_{p \in J} \|p-q_i\| \] for $q_i \in Q$ from a point set $Q$. Collecting the vector of these sketch values induces a simple, effective, and…
A subspace of matrices over $\mathbb{F}_{q^e}^{m\times n}$ can be naturally embedded as a subspace of matrices in $\mathbb{F}_q^{em\times en}$ with the property that the rank of any of its matrix is a multiple of $e$. It is quite natural to…
Exponential vector space [shortly \emph{evs}] is an algebraic order extension of vector space in the sense that every evs contains a vector space and conversely every vector space can be embedded into such a structure. This evs structure…
A $t\text{-}(n,k,\lambda;q)$-design is a set of $k$-subspaces, called blocks, of an $n$-dimensional vector space $V$ over the finite field with $q$ elements such that each $t$-subspace is contained in exactly $\lambda$ blocks. A partition…
A set of lines through the origin is called equiangular if every pair of lines defines the same angle, and the maximum size of an equiangular set of lines in $\mathbb{R}^n$ was studied extensively for the last 70 years. In this paper, we…
The problem of finding the maximal dimension of linear or affine subspaces of matrices whose rank is constant, or bounded below, or bounded above, has attracted many mathematicians from the sixties to the present day. The problem has caught…
A $q$-covering design $\mathbb{C}_q(n, k, r)$, $k \ge r$, is a collection $\mathcal X$ of $(k-1)$-spaces of $\mathrm{PG}(n-1, q)$ such that every $(r-1)$-space of $\mathrm{PG}(n-1, q)$ is contained in at least one element of $\mathcal X$ .…
Let $n,n'$ be positive integers and let $V$ be an $(n+n')$-dimensional vector space over a finite field $\mathbb{F}$ equipped with a non-degenerate alternating, hermitian or quadratic form. We estimate the proportion of pairs $(U, U')$,…
An arc is a set of vectors of the $k$-dimensional vector space over the finite field with $q$ elements ${\mathbb F}_q$, in which every subset of size $k$ is a basis of the space, i.e. every $k$-subset is a set of linearly independent…
Three $k$-dimensional subspaces $A$, $B$, and $C$ of an $n$-dimensional vector space $V$ over a finite field are called a $3$-cluster if $A \cap B \cap C = \{\mathbf{0}_V\}$ and yet $\dim(A+B+C) \leq 2k$. A special kind of $3$-cluster,…
A basic problem for the constant dimension subspace coding is to determine the maximal possible size A_q (n, d, k) of a set of k-dimensional subspaces in Fnq such that the subspace distance satisfies d(U, V )> or =d for any two different…
We study the properties of the maximal volume $k$-dimensional sections of the $n$-dimensional cube $[-1,1]^n$. We obtain a first order necessary condition for a $k$-dimensional subspace to be a local maximizer of the volume of such…
Uniform laws of large numbers form a cornerstone of Vapnik--Chervonenkis theory, where they are characterized by the finiteness of the VC dimension. In this work, we study uniform convergence phenomena in cartesian product spaces, under…
In this paper, we study flag codes on the vector space $\mathbb{F}_q^n$, being $q$ a prime power and $\mathbb{F}_q$ the finite field of $q$ elements. More precisely, we focus on flag codes that attain the maximum possible distance (optimum…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field and ${\sf G}(2,k^4)$ the Grassmannian of 2-planes in $k^4$. We associate to each 6-dimensional subspace $R$ of the space of 4x4 matrices over $k$ a closed subscheme ${\bf X}_R \subseteq {\sf…
