The existence of large sets of Kirkman triple systems (LKTSs) is one of the best-known open problems in combinatorial design theory. Steiner quadruple systems with resolvable derived designs (RDSQSs) play an important role in the recursive…
It this paper we study a class of perturbed Hamiltonian systems under perturbations of thirteen order in order to detect the number of limit cycles which bifurcate from some periodic orbits of the unperturbed Hamiltonian system. The system…
It is established that the logarithm of the number of latin $d$-cubes of order $n$ is $\Theta(n^{d}\ln n)$ and the logarithm of the number of pairs of orthogonal latin squares of order $n$ is $\Theta(n^2\ln n)$. Similar estimations are…
A number of applications of Steiner triple systems (e.g. disk erasure codes) exist that require a special ordering of its blocks. Universal cycles, introduced by Chung, Diaconis, and Graham in 1992, and Gray codes are examples of listing…
It is established that up to isomorphism,there are only one (K_4-e)-design of order 6, three (K_4-e)-designs of order 10 and two (K_4-e)-designs of order 11. As an application of our enumerative results, we discuss the fine triangle…
The identity of the smallest quadrangulation with minimum degree 3 also containing parallel edges is unknown. However, it has already been determined that its order (the number of vertices) is between 11 and 14. This paper narrows this…
Symmetry protected states (SPT's) of quantum spin systems were studied by several authors. For one-dimensional systems (spin chains), there is an essentially complete and rigorous understanding: SPT's corresponding to finite on-site…
For a given poset, we consider its representations by systems of subspaces of a unitary space ordered by inclusion. We classify such systems for all posets for which an explicit classification is possible.
We provide a classification method of weighing matrices based on a classification of self-orthogonal codes. Using this method, we classify weighing matrices of orders up to 15 and order 17, by revising some known classification. In…
We determine all possible orders of automorphisms of complex K3 surfaces. A positive integer N is the order of an automorphism of a complex K3 surface if and only if $\phi(N) \leq 20$ where $\phi$ is the Euler function.
We prove that with high probability $\mathbb{G}^{(3)}(n,n^{-1+o(1)})$ contains a spanning Steiner triple system for $n\equiv 1,3\pmod{6}$, establishing the exponent for the threshold probability for existence of a Steiner triple system. We…
Let $p$ be a fixed prime. We show that the number of isomorphism classes of finite rings of order $p^n$ is $p^\alpha$, where $\alpha=\frac{4}{27}n^3+O(n^{5/2})$. This result was stated (with a weaker error term) by Kruse and Price in 1969;…
We reach beyond the celebrated theorems of Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado and Hilton-Milner, and, a recent theorem of Han-Kohayakawa, and determine all maximal intersecting triples systems. It turns out that for each $n\ge7$ there are exactly 15…
This paper presents a methodology for constructing iterative schemes of any order of convergence for solving nonlinear systems of equations. It also provides formulas for the order of convergence of any iterative schemes constructed using…
In this article we present the largest set of unitals (totally 553) in projective planes of order 16. An open question is what is the number of the known unitals that are non-isomorphic to the reported ones. The results are obtained with a…
The purposes of this paper are to classify lower triangular forms and to determine under what conditions a nonlinear system is equivalent to a specific type of lower triangular forms. According to the least multi-indices and the greatest…
We determine the numbers of integral tetrahedra with diameter $d$ up to isomorphism for all $d\le 1000$ via computer enumeration. Therefore we give an algorithm that enumerates the integral tetrahedra with diameter at most $d$ in $O(d^5)$…
Coding theory and $t$-designs have close connections and interesting interplay. In this paper, we first introduce a class of ternary linear codes and study their parameters. We then focus on their three-weight subcodes with a special weight…
Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph, and $s,t$ vertices of $G$. We present an efficient algorithm which enumerates the set of minimal $st$-separators of $G$ in ascending order of cardinality, with a delay of $O(n^{3.5})$ per separator. In…
The $\mathscr{P}$-position sets of some combinatorial games have special combinatorial structures. For example, the $\mathscr{P}$-position set of the hexad game, first investigated by Conway and Ryba, is the block set of the Steiner system…
