Lower bounds for the number of local nearrings on groups of order $p^3$ are obtained. On each non-metacyclic non-abelian or metacyclic abelian groups of order $p^3$ there exist at least $p+1$ non-isomorphic local nearrings
Much work has been done attempting to understand the dynamic behaviour of the so-called "3x+1" function. It is known that finite sequences of iterations with a given length and a given number of odd terms have some combinatorial properties…
Block-transitive Steiner $t$-designs form a central part of the study of highly symmetric combinatorial configurations at the interface of several disciplines, including group theory, geometry, combinatorics, coding and information theory,…
Bound q\bar q -systems are considered in the framework of three different versions of the 3-dimensional reduction of the Bethe-Salpeter equation, all having the correct one-body limit when one of the constituent quark masses tends to…
For each prime p other than 3, and each power q=p^k, we present two large classes of permutation polynomials over F_{q^2} of the form X^r B(X^{q-1}) which have at most five terms, where B(X) is a polynomial with coefficients in {1,-1}. The…
In the literature, we have several results associated with canonical decomposition of commuting contractions. In this paper, we generalize a few of these results to $Q$-commuting contractions. Here we mainly deal with $Q$-commuting and…
We discuss various scattering properties of non-topological solitons, Q-balls, on potential obstructions in (1+1) and (2+1) dimensions. These obstructions, barriers and holes, are inserted into the potential of the theory via the coupling…
We study the generalized q-dimensions of measures supported on non-autonomous conformal attractors, which are the generalizations of Moran sets and the attractors of iterated function systems. We first prove that the critical values of…
Previous work has studied the pattern count on singly restricted permutations. In this work, we focus on patterns of length 3 in multiply restricted permutations, especially for double and triple pattern-avoiding permutations. We derive…
We determine all permutation polynomials over F_{q^2} of the form X^r A(X^{q-1}) where, for some Q which is a power of the characteristic of F_q, the integer r is congruent to Q+1 (mod q+1) and all terms of A(X) have degrees in {0, 1, Q,…
We completely characterize $L^p-L^q$ boundedness of two classes of Forelli-Rudin type operators on the unit ball of $\mathbb{C}^n$ for all $(p, q)\in [1, \infty]\times [1, \infty]$. The results are not only a complement to some previous…
Model independent verification of the quark combinatorics rules, which govern the ratios of the yields of secondaries, is presented for jet processes. Because of a large number of produced resonances in the hadron jets, a test of the quark…
An $n$-length binary word is $q$-decreasing, $q\geq 1$, if every of its length maximal factor of the form $0^a1^b$ satisfies $a=0$ or $q\cdot a > b$.We show constructively that these words are in bijection with binary words having no…
We extend Shi's 2002 quantum lower bound for collision in $r$-to-one functions with $n$ inputs. Shi's bound of $\Omega((n/r)^{1/3})$ is tight, but his proof applies only in the case where the range has size at least $3n/2$. We give a…
A $q$-ary $t$-$(n,w,\lambda)$ design is a collection $\mathcal{A}$ of vectors of weight $w$ in $\mathbb{F}_{q}^{n}$ with the property that every vector of weight $t$ in $\mathbb{F}_{q}^{n}$ is contained in exactly $\lambda$ members of…
A nonsingular surface of degree $d \geq 2$ in $\mathbb{P}^3$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ has at most $((d-1)q+1)d$ $\mathbb{F}_q$-lines, and this bound is optimal for $d = 2, \sqrt{q}+1, q+1$.
Recently it was shown (by the author) that every graph of size $q$ (the number of edges) and minimum degree $\delta$ is hamiltonian if $q\le\delta^2+\delta-1$ (arXiv:1107.2201v1). In this paper we present the exact analog of this result for…
We obtain an upper bound on the number of extended irreducible q-ary Goppa codes of degree $r$ and length $q^n+1$, where $q=p^t$ and $n$ and $r>2$ are prime numbers.
We give an exponential upper and a quadratic lower bound on the number of pairwise non-isotopic simple closed curves can be placed on a closed surface of genus g such that any two of the curves intersects at most once. Although the gap is…
This paper introduces a non-variational quantum algorithm designed to solve a wide range of combinatorial optimisation problems, including constrained and non-binary problems. The algorithm leverages an engineered interference process…
