This is the first paper that provides a systematic treatment of the $r$-dimensional PTE problem in additive number theory, abbreviated by PTE$_r$, through its connection with combinatorial design theory, the branch of combinatorial…
Using the classification of finite simple groups we prove Alperin's weight conjecture and the character theoretic version of Broue's abelian defect group conjecture for 2-blocks of finite groups with an elementary abelian defect group of…
It is shown that the countably infinite dimensional pointed vector space (the vector space equipped with a constant) over a finite field has infinitely many first order definable reducts. This implies that the countable homogeneous…
The new class of integrable mappings and chains is introduced. Corresponding (1+2) integrable systems invariant with respect to such discrete transformations are represented in explicit form. Soliton like solutions of them are represented…
The set of prime numbers has been analyzed, based on their algebraic and arithmetical structure. Here by obtaining a sort of linear formula for the set of prime numbers, they are redefined and identified; under a systematic procedure it has…
In this note, we present an interesting corollary of a theorem of Hamada and Ohmori. We prove that the complementary of PG(n,2) is the only design, up to an isomorphism, whose blocks form a group for the symmetric difference.
We prove that 2-dimensional simplicial complexes whose first homology group is trivial have topological embeddings in 3-space if and only if there are embeddings of their link graphs in the plane that are compatible at the edges and they…
This paper investigates $2$-$(v,5,\lambda)$ designs $\mathcal{D}$ admitting a block-transitive automorphism group $G$. We first prove that if $G$ is point-imprimitive, then $v$ must be one of 16, 21, or 81. We further provide a complete…
We give a strongly explicit construction of $\varepsilon$-approximate $k$-designs for the orthogonal group $\mathrm{O}(N)$ and the unitary group $\mathrm{U}(N)$, for $N=2^n$. Our designs are of cardinality $\mathrm{poly}(N^k/\varepsilon)$…
The elements of a finite field of prime order canonically correspond to the integers in an interval. This induces an ordering on the elements of the field. Using this ordering, Kiss and Somlai recently proved interesting properties of the…
Group action is a standard approach to obtain $t$-designs. In this approach, selecting a specific permutation group with a certain degree of transitivity or homogeneity and a proper set of base blocks is important for obtaining $t$-$(v, k,…
In this note we present three representations of a 248-dimensional Lie algebra, namely the algebra of Lie point symmetries admitted by a system of five trivial ordinary differential equations each of order forty-four, that admitted by a…
In this note, we give direct constructions of some group divisible designs (GDDs) with block size $4$ that have up to $50$ points.
Let A be a supersingular abelian variety over a finite field k. We give an approximate description of the structure of the group A(k) of rational points of A over k in terms of the characteristic polynomial f of the Frobenius endomorphism…
We present constructions and results about GDDs with two groups and block size 6. We study those GDDs in which each block has configuration (s,t), that is in which each block has exactly s points from one of the two groups and t points from…
In this short communication we introduce a rather simple autonomous system of 2 nonlinearly-coupled first-order Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs), whose initial-values problem is explicitly solvable by algebraic operations. Its ODEs…
Combinatorial $t$-designs have nice applications in coding theory, finite geometries and several engineering areas. There are two major methods of constructing $t$-designs. One of them is via group actions of certain permutation groups…
Order and symmetry are main structural principles in mathematics. We give five examples where on the face of it order is not apparent, but deeper investigations reveal that they are governed by order structures. These examples are finite…
In this paper we investigate the spectrum of super-simple 2-$(v,5,1)$ directed designs (or simply super-simple 2-$(v,5,1)$DDs) and also the size of their smallest defining sets. We show that for all $v\equiv1,5\ ({\rm mod}\ 10)$ except…
We consider branched coverings which are simple in the sense that any point of the target has at most one singular preimage. The cobordism classes of $k$-fold simple branched coverings between $n$-manifolds form an abelian group…
