A canonical Huffman sequence is characterized by a zero inner-product between itself and each of its shifted copies, except at their largest relative shifts: their aperiodic auto-correlation then becomes delta-like, a single central peak…
Low-discrepancy sequences have seen widespread adoption in computer graphics thanks to their superior convergence rates. Since rendering integrals often comprise products of lower-dimensional integrals, recent work has focused on developing…
In this paper, we apply two-to-one functions over $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$ in two generic constructions of binary linear codes. We consider two-to-one functions in two forms: (1) generalized quadratic functions; and (2) $\left(x^{2^t}+x\right)^e$…

Quaternary sequences of both even and odd period having low autocorrelation are studied. We construct new families of balanced quaternary sequences of odd period and low autocorrelation using cyclotomic classes of order eight, as well as…
We present sufficient conditions for when an ordering of universal cycles $\alpha_1, \alpha_2, \ldots, \alpha_m$ for disjoint sets $\mathbf{S}_1, \mathbf{S}_2, \ldots , \mathbf{S}_m$ can be concatenated together to obtain a universal cycle…
Let $p$ be an odd prime number, $\mathbb{F}_{p^m}$ be a finite field of cardinality $p^m$ and $s$ a positive integer. Using some combinatorial identities, we obtain certain properties for Kronecker product of matrices over $\mathbb{F}_p$…
Residue number systems based on pairwise relatively prime moduli are a powerful tool for accelerating integer computations via the Chinese Remainder Theorem. We study a structured family of moduli of the form $2^n - 2^k + 1$, originally…
The work in this article is concerned with two different types of families of finite sets: separating families and splitting families (they are also called "systems"). These families have applications in combinatorial search, coding theory,…
We present a natural extension of the notion of nondegenerate rational maps (quadrirational maps) to arbitrary dimensions. We refer to these maps as $2^n-$rational maps. In this note we construct a rich family of $2^n-$rational maps. These…

The family of graphs of reduced words of a certain subcollection of permutations in the union $\cup_{n\geq 4}\frak{S}_{n}$ of symmetic groups is investigated. The subcollection is characterised by the hook cycle type $(n-2,1,1)$ with…

The study of frequency-hopping sequences (FHSs) has been focused on the establishment of theoretical bounds for the parameters of FHSs as well as on the construction of optimal FHSs with respect to the bounds. Peng and Fan (2004) derived…
