We study 4-by-4 squares formed by cards from the EvenQuads deck. EvenQuads is a card game with 64 cards where cards have 3 attributes with 4 values in each attribute. A quad is four cards with all attributes the same, all different, or half…
We study the maximum number of quads among $\ell$ cards from an EvenQuads deck of size $2^n$. This corresponds to enumerating quadruples of integers in the range $[0,\ell-1]$ such that their bitwise XOR is zero. In this paper, we conjecture…
We define a \textit{cap} in the affine geometry $AG(n,2)$ to be a subset in which any collection of 4 points is in general position. In this paper we classify, up to affine equivalence, all caps in $AG(n,2)$ of size $k \leq 9$. As a result,…

Codes that can correct up to $t$ symmetric errors and detect all unidirectional errors, known as $t$-EC-AUED codes, are studied in this paper. Given positive integers $q$, $a$ and $t$, let $n_q(a,t+1)$ denote the length of the shortest…
