In this article, we construct linear codes over the commutative non-unital ring $I$ of size four. We obtain their Lee-weight distributions and study their binary Gray images. Under certain mild conditions, these classes of binary codes are…

We present compact distributed interactive proofs for the recognition of two important graph classes, well-studied in the context of centralized algorithms, namely complement reducible graphs and distance-hereditary graphs. Complement…

In this paper, we mainly consider quasi-cyclic (QC) codes over finite chain rings. We study module structures and trace representations of QC codes, which lead to some lower bounds on the minimum Hamming distance of QC codes. Moreover, we…

Consider a family $\mathcal F$ of $C_{2r+1}$-free graphs, where $r\geq 2$. Suppose that each graph in $\mathcal F$ has minimum degree linear in its number of vertices. Thomassen showed that such a family has bounded chromatic number, or,…

For a linear code $\mathcal{C} \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^n$ and $\alpha \in [0,1]$, call a set $S \subseteq [n]$ an (unweighted) one-sided $\alpha$-sparsifier of $\mathcal{C}$ if for all $c \in \mathcal{C}$, $\mathrm{wt}(c_S)\geq \alpha \cdot…

A two-dimensional simplicial complex is called $d$-{\em regular} if every edge of it is contained in exactly $d$ distinct triangles. It is called $\epsilon$-expanding if its up-down two-dimensional random walk has a normalized maximal…

Let $A$ be a group acting by automorphisms on the group $G.$ \textit{The commuting graph $\Gamma(G,A)$ of $A$-orbits} of this action is the simple graph with vertex set $\{x^{A} : 1\ne x \in G \}$, the set of all $A$-orbits on $G\setminus…

We prove that an arbitrary compact metrizable group can be realized as the automorphism group of a graphing; this is a continuous analogue to Frucht's theorem recovering arbitrary finite groups are automorphism groups of finite graphs. The…

Given a finite, simple, connected graph $G=(V,E)$ with $|V|=n$, we consider the associated graph Laplacian matrix $L = D - A$ with eigenvalues $0 = \lambda_1 < \lambda_2 \leq \dots \leq \lambda_n$. One can also consider the same graph…

The cycle space of a graph $G$, denoted $C(G)$, is a vector space over ${\mathbb F}_2$, spanned by all incidence vectors of edge-sets of cycles of $G$. If $G$ has $n$ vertices, then $C_n(G)$ is the subspace of $C(G)$, spanned by the…

We prove that for many pairs $H_1, H_2$ of root subgroups of the automorphism group $\text{Aut}(\mathbb{C}^2)$ the diagonal action of the group generated by $H_1, H_2$ on $(\mathbb{C}^2)^m$ has an open orbit for any positive integer $m$.…

The commuting graph of a finite non-commutative semigroup $S$, denoted $\cg(S)$, is a simple graph whose vertices are the non-central elements of $S$ and two distinct vertices $x,y$ are adjacent if $xy=yx$. Let $\mi(X)$ be the symmetric…

Let C be an additive subgroup of $\Z_{2k}^n$ for any $k\geq 1$. We define a Gray map $\Phi:\Z_{2k}^n \longrightarrow \Z_2^{kn}$ such that $\Phi(\codi)$ is a binary propelinear code and, hence, a Hamming-compatible group code. Moreover,…

For a directed graph $G$, a $t$-identifying code is a subset $S\subseteq V(G)$ with the property that for each vertex $v\in V(G)$ the set of vertices of $S$ reachable from $v$ by a directed path of length at most $t$ is both non-empty and…

We study $c$-crossing-critical graphs, which are the minimal graphs that require at least $c$ edge-crossings when drawn in the plane. For $c=1$ there are only two such graphs without degree-2 vertices, $K_5$ and $K_{3,3}$, but for any fixed…

An identifying code $C$ of a graph $G$ is a dominating set of $G$ such that any two distinct vertices of $G$ have distinct closed neighbourhoods within $C$. These codes have been widely studied for over two decades. We give an improvement…

We study two families of cyclotomic graphs and perfect codes in them. They are Cayley graphs on the additive group of $\mathbb{Z}[\zeta_m]/A$, with connection sets $\{\pm (\zeta_m^i + A): 0 \le i \le m-1\}$ and $\{\pm (\zeta_m^i + A): 0 \le…

Hopping cyclic codes (HCCs) are (non-linear) cyclic codes with the additional property that the $n$ cyclic shifts of every given codeword are all distinct, where $n$ is the code length. Constant weight binary hopping cyclic codes are also…

An $\textit{identifying code}$ of a closed-twin-free graph $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices of $G$ such that any two vertices in $G$ have a distinct intersection between their closed neighborhood and $S$. It was conjectured that there exists a…
