The relation between equiangular sets of lines in the real space and distance-regular double covers of the complete graph is well known and studied since the work of Seidel and others in the 70's. The main topic of this paper is to continue…

A set of lines in $\mathbb{R}^d$ passing through the origin is called equiangular if any two lines in the set form the same angle. We proved an alternative version of the three-point semidefinite constraints developed by Bachoc and…

In this paper, we give a new proof of the Lemmens-Seidel conjecture on the maximum number of equiangular lines with a common angle $\arccos(1/5)$. This conjecture was previously resolved by Cao, Koolen, Lin, and Yu in 2022 through an…

In 1973, Lemmens and Seidel posed the problem of determining the maximum number of equiangular lines in $\mathbb{R}^r$ with angle $\arccos(\alpha)$ and gave a partial answer in the regime $r \leq 1/\alpha^2 - 2$. At the other extreme where…

A generalisation of Riemannian geometry is considered, based exclusively on the minimal assumptions that the line element $ds$ is a regular function of position and direction and that the distance of every point from itself is equal to…

We study some examples when there is actually an equality in the linear algebra bound. When the vectors considered span in fact the entire space. We would like to point out that in some cases this provides some interesting extra information…

We derive a procedure for computing an upper bound on the number of equiangular lines in various Euclidean vector spaces by generalizing the classical pillar decomposition developed by (Lemmens and Seidel, 1973); namely, we use linear…

Lines and circles pose significant scalability challenges in synthetic geometry. A line with $n$ points implies ${n \choose 3}$ collinearity atoms, or alternatively, when lines are represented as functions, equality among ${n \choose 2}$…

The edge-length ratio of a straight-line drawing of a graph is the ratio between the lengths of the longest and of the shortest edge in the drawing. The planar edge-length ratio of a planar graph is the minimum edge-length ratio of any…

We show that the maximum cardinality of an equiangular line system in 14 and 16 dimensions is 28 and 40, respectively, thereby solving a longstanding open problem. We also improve the upper bounds on the cardinality of equiangular line…

In this paper, we offer a brief introduction to the $p$-adic numbers and operations in the metric space defined under the $p$-adic norm. Specifically, we provide a clear description of the derivation of the $p$-adic number via the…

In this work nonlinear pseudo-differential equations with the infinite number of derivatives are studied. These equations form a new class of equations which initially appeared in p-adic string theory. These equations are of much interest…

We consider the distances between a line and a set of points in the plane defined by the L^p-norms of the vector consisting of the euclidian distance between the single points and the line. We determine lines with minimal geometric…

The goal of this paper is to study a $p$-adic analog of the joint of the conjectures of Andr\'e--Oort and Andr\'e--Pink. More precisely, on a product of ordinary Siegel formal moduli schemes, we study the distribution of points whose…

Zauner's conjecture asserts that $d^2$ equiangular lines exist in all $d$ complex dimensions. In quantum theory, the $d^2$ lines are dubbed a SIC, as they define a favoured standard informationally complete quantum measurement called a…
