We study combinatorial configurations with the associated point and line graphs being strongly regular. Examples not belonging to known classes such as partial geometries and their generalizations or elliptic semiplanes are constructed.…

We determine explicit formulas for the number of representations of a positive integer $n$ by quaternary quadratic forms with coefficients $1$, $2$, $5$ or $10$. We use a modular forms approach.

In this paper, string C-groups of all ranks $3 \leq r \leq \frac{n}{2}$ are provided for each alternating group $A_n$, $n \geq 12$. As the string C-group representations of $A_n$ have also been classified for $n \leq 11$, and it is known…

Supersymmetric configurations of non-orthogonally intersecting M-5-branes can be obtained by rotation of one of a pair of parallel M-5-branes. Examples preserving 1/4, 3/16 and 1/8 supersymmetry are reviewed.

We investigate the average number of representations of a positive integer as the sum of $k + 1$ perfect $k$-th powers of primes. We extend recent results of Languasco and the last Author, which dealt with the case $k = 2$ [6] and $k = 3$…

Many authors have recently studied the degenerate harmonic numbers. This paper makes two main contributions. First, we derive several explicit expressions for these numbers, which are a degenerate version of the ordinary harmonic numbers.…

We show that every sufficiently large integer is a sum of a prime and two almost prime squares, and also a sum of a smooth number and two almost prime squares. The number of such representations is of the expected order of magnitude. We…

We calculate the real rank and stable rank of CCR algebras which either have only finite dimensional irreducible representations or have finite topological dimension. We show that either rank of A is determined in a good way by the ranks of…

We study modular forms of some congruence subgroups. In this paper, we treat the cases level is 2-power, 3-power or 5. Structures of graded rings and many identities of infinite sum or infinite product are given. Theory of rational (1/3,…

For integers $k \geq 2$ and $n \geq k+1$, we prove the following: If $n\cdot k$ is even, there is a connected $k$-regular graph on $n$ vertices. If $n\cdot k$ is odd, there is a connected nearly $k$-regular graph on $n$ vertices.

Let $r \leqslant n$ be nonnegative integers, and let $N = \binom{n}{r} - 1$. For a matroid $M$ of rank $r$ on the finite set $E = [n]$ and a partial field $k$ in the sense of Semple--Whittle, it is known that the following are equivalent:…

Word-representable graphs, characterized by the existence of a semi-transitive orientation, form a well-studied class of graphs. Comparability graphs form another well-studied class and constitute a subclass of word-representable graphs.…

In this paper, we study the symmetric rank of products of linear forms and an irreducible quadratic form. The main result presents a new, non-trivial lower bound for the rank, and the arguments rely on the apolarity lemma. In the special…

Melchior's inequality implies that the average line-length in a simple, rank-$3$, real-representable matroid is less than $3$. A similar result holds for complex-representable matroids, using Hirzebruch's inequality, but with a weaker bound…

We show that for all integers $m\geq 2$, and all integers $k\geq 2$, the orthogonal groups $\Orth^{\pm}(2m,\Fk)$ act on abstract regular polytopes of rank $2m$, and the symplectic groups $\Sp(2m,\Fk)$ act on abstract regular polytopes of…

Let $\sigma_b(X_{m,d}(\mathbb {C}))(\mathbb {R})$, $b(m+1) < \binom{m+d}{m}$, denote the set of all degree $d$ real homogeneous polynomials in $m+1$ variables (i.e. real symmetric tensors of format $(m+1)\times ... \times (m+1)$, $d$ times)…

Exactly integrable systems connected to semisimple algebras of second rank with an arbitrary choice of grading are presented in explicit form. General solutions of these systems are expressed in terms of matrix elements of two fundamental…

We investigate generalized quadratic forms with values in the set of rational integers over quadratic fields. We characterize the real quadratic fields which admit a positive definite binary generalized form of this type representing every…

We study the representation dimension of the class of algebras known as quantum complete intersections. For such an algebra, we show that the representation dimension is at most twice its codimension. Moreover, we show that the…

We show that for several notions of rank including tensor rank, Waring rank, and generalized rank with respect to a projective variety, the maximum value of rank is at most twice the generic rank. We show that over the real numbers, the…
