Use of polynomial indicator functions to enumerate fractional factorial designs with given properties is first introduced by Fontana, Pistone and Rogantin (2000) for two-level factors, and generalized by Aoki (2019) for multi-level factors.…

A $t$-$(n,d,\lambda)$ design over ${\mathbb F}_q$, or a subspace design, is a collection of $d$-dimensional subspaces of ${\mathbb F}_q^n$, called blocks, with the property that every $t$-dimensional subspace of ${\mathbb F}_q^n$ is…

Finite dynamical systems (FDSs) are commonly used to model systems with a finite number of states that evolve deterministically and at discrete time steps. Considered up to isomorphism, those correspond to functional graphs. As such, FDSs…

It is an elementary fact that the size of an orthogonal array of strength t on k factors must be a multiple of a certain number, say L_t, that depends on the orders of the factors. Thus L_t is a lower bound on the size of arrays of strength…

Linear algebra computations are foundational for neural networks and machine learning, often handled through arrays. While many functional programming languages feature lists and recursion, arrays in linear algebra demand constant-time…

The article describes prime intervals into the prime factorization of the middle binomial coefficient. Prime factors and prime powers are distributed in layers. Each layer consists of non-repeated prime numbers which are chosen (not…

Let $q$ be an odd prime and $k$ be a natural number. We show that a finite subset of integers $S$ that does not contain any perfect $q^{th}$ power, contains a $q^{th}$ power residue modulo almost every natural numbers $N$ with at most $k$…

This work presents an abstract model for the computations performed by analytic column stores or columnar query processors. The model is based on circuits whose wires carry columns rather than scalar values, and whose nodes apply operators…

Every m by n matrix A with rank r has exactly r independent rows and r independent columns. The fact has become the most fundamental theorem in linear algebra such that we may favor it in an unconscious way. The sole aim of this paper is to…

A magic rectangle of order $m\times n$ with precisely $r$ filled cells in each row and precisely $s$ filled cells in each column, denoted $MR(m,n;r,s)$, is an arrangement of the numbers from 0 to $mr-1$ in an $m\times n$ array such that…

We develop $D$-optimal designs for linear models with first-order interactions on a subset of the $2^K$ full factorial design region, when both the number of factors set to the higher level and the number of factors set to the lower level…

Factorization is the central ingredient in any theoretical prediction for collider experiments. We introduce a factorization formalism that can be applied to any desired observable, like event shapes or jet observables, for any number of…

We study the polynomial algebra (over a ring containing the rationals) in an n by m matrix of variables, and subject to the relation that says that the product of any two variables in the same column is zero. We show that the sub-algebra of…

Every isometry of a finite dimensional euclidean space is a product of reflections and the minimum length of a reflection factorization defines a metric on its full isometry group. In this article we identify the structure of intervals in…

Given $\mathbb{F}_{q^{n}}$, a field with $q^n$ elements, where $q $ is a prime power and $n$ is positive integer. For $r_1,r_2,m_1,m_2 \in \mathbb{N}$, $k_1,k_2 \in \mathbb{N}\cup \{0\}$, a rational function $F = \frac{F_1}{F_2}$ in…

Rectangular designs are classified as regular, Latin regular, semiregular, Latin semiregular and singular designs. Some series of selfdual as well as alpharesolvable designs are obtained using matrix approaches which belong to the above…

We define the disposition polynomial $R_{m}(x_1, x_2, ..., x_n)$ as $\prod_{k=0}^{m-1}(x_1+x_2+...+x_n+k)$. When $m=n-1$, this polynomial becomes the generating function of plane trees with respect to certain statistics as given by Guo and…

We study the $k$-Bonacci word over the infinite alphabet $\mathbb{N}$. Since the alphabet is infinite, the usual factor complexity is infinite and does not provide any information. We therefore investigate factor occurrence statistics in…

In this paper we relate t-designs to a forbidden configuration problem in extremal set theory. Let 1_t 0_l denote a column of t 1's on top of l 0's. We assume t>l. Let q. (1_t 0_l) denote the (t+l)xq matrix consisting of t rows of q 1's and…

The study of good nonregular fractional factorial designs has received significant attention over the last two decades. Recent research indicates that designs constructed from quaternary codes (QC) are very promising in this regard. The…
