Perfect difference families (PDFs for short) are important both in theoretical and in applications. Perfect difference matrices (PDMs for short) and the equivalent structure had been extensively studied and used to construct perfect…
For a 4th order 3-dimensional symmetric tensor with its some entries $1$ or $-1$, we show the analytic sufficient and necessary conditions of its positive definiteness. By applying these conclusions, several strict inequalities is bulit for…
We study the problem of finding the largest number $T(n, m)$ of ternary vectors of length $n$ such that for any three distinct vectors there are at least $m$ coordinates where they pairwise differ. For $m = 1$, this is the classical…
We construct $n$-vertex graphs $G$ where $\epsilon n^2$ edges must be deleted to become triangle-free, which contain less than $\epsilon^{(C_{\text{new}}-o(1))\log_2 1/\epsilon}n^3$ triangles for $C_{\text{new}}= \frac{1}{4\log_2(4/3)}…
In this work, we study linear error-correcting codes against adversarial insertion-deletion (insdel) errors, a topic that has recently gained a lot of attention. We construct linear codes over $\mathbb{F}_q$, for…
A graph admitting a perfect matching has the Perfect-Matching-Hamiltonian property (for short the PMH-property) if each of its perfect matchings can be extended to a Hamiltonian cycle. In this paper we establish some sufficient conditions…
Let $h(n)$ denote the maximum number of triangles with angles between $59^\circ$ and $61^\circ$ in any $n$-element planar set. Our main result is an exact formula for $h(n)$. We also prove $h(n)= n^3/24+ O(n \log n)$ as $n\to \infty$.…
The hull of a linear code over finite fields is the intersection of the code and its dual, and linear codes with small hulls have applications in computational complexity and information protection. Linear codes with the smallest hull are…
The sizes of optimal constant-composition codes of weight three have been determined by Chee, Ge and Ling with four cases in doubt. Group divisible codes played an important role in their constructions. In this paper, we study the problem…
This article emphasizes an extension of the study of metric and par- tition dimension to hypergraphs. We give a sharp lower bounds for the metric and partition dimension of hypergraphs in general and give exact values under specified…
In this paper, we study the explicit geometry of threefolds, in particular, Fano varieties. We find an explicitly computable positive integer $N$, such that all but a bounded family of Fano threefolds have $N$-complements. This result has…
The paper deals with the problem of deciding if two finite-dimensional linear subspaces over an arbitrary field are identical up to a permutation of the coordinates. This problem is referred to as the permutation code equivalence. We show…
Let $\varepsilon>0$. We construct an explicit, full-measure set of $\alpha \in[0,1]$ such that if $\gamma \in \mathbb{R}$ then, for almost all $\beta \in[0,1]$, if $\delta \in \mathbb{R}$ then there are infinitely many integers $n\geq 1$…
Perfect codes obtained by the Vasil'ev--Sch\"onheim construction from a linear base code and quadratic switching functions are transitive and, moreover, propelinear. This gives at least $\exp(cN^2)$ propelinear $1$-perfect codes of length…
We construct new linear codes with high minimum distance d. In at least 12 cases these codes improve the minimum distance of the previously known best linear codes for fixed parameters n,k. Among these new codes there is an optimal ternary…
In this paper, we introduce a general construction of linear codes with small dimension hull from any non LCD codes. Furthermore, we show that for any linear code $\Co$ over $\F_q$ ($q > 3$) with $dim(Hull(\Co))=h$ there exist an equivalent…
We provide an improvement over Meshulam's bound on cap sets in $F_3^N$. We show that there exist universal $\epsilon>0$ and $C>0$ so that any cap set in $F_3^N$ has size at most $C {3^N \over N^{1+\epsilon}}$. We do this by obtaining quite…
We show that the number $p\_d$ of non-similar perfect $d$-dimensional lattices satisfies eventually the inequalities$e^{d^{1-\epsilon}}<p\_d<e^{d^{3+\epsilon}}$ for arbitrary smallstrictly positive $\epsilon$.
Certain simplicial complexes are used to construct a subset $D$ of $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}^m$ and $D$, in turn, defines the linear code $C_{D}$ over $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$ that consists of $(v\cdot d)_{d\in D}$ for $v\in \mathbb{F}_{2^n}^m$. Here we…
We prove that, for sufficiently large $n$, every graph of order $n$ with minimum degree at least $0.852n$ has a fractional edge-decomposition into triangles. We do this by refining a method used by Dross to establish a bound of $0.9n$. By a…
