In this paper, we propose a new method for constructing a class of non-GRS MDS codes. The lengths of these codes can reach up to $\frac{q+3}{2}$ (for finite fields of odd characteristic) and $\frac{q+4}{2}$ (for even characteristic),…
We construct orthogonal arrays OA$_{\lambda} (k,n)$ (of strength two) having a row that is repeated $m$ times, where $m$ is as large as possible. In particular, we consider OAs where the ratio $m / \lambda$ is as large as possible; these…
We study the problem of recovering an incomplete $m\times n$ matrix of rank $r$ with columns arriving online over time. This is known as the problem of life-long matrix completion, and is widely applied to recommendation system, computer…
Stretching is a new sparse matrix method that makes matrices sparser by making them larger. Stretching has implications for computational complexity theory and applications in scientific and parallel computing. It changes matrix sparsity…
We study $m \times n$ matrices whose columns are of the form \[\{(a_{1j},\ldots, a_{nj}): \quad a_{1j} = \lambda_j,\ a_{ij} = \pm\lambda_j\ , \ \lambda_j >0 ,\ j=1,2,\ldots,n\}.\] We explicitly construct for all $a = (a_1,\ldots,…

We describe a new random greedy algorithm for generating regular graphs of high girth: Let $k\geq 3$ and $c \in (0,1)$ be fixed. Let $n \in \mathbb{N}$ be even and set $g = c \log_{k-1} (n)$. Begin with a Hamilton cycle $G$ on $n$ vertices.…
Let $R$ and $S$ be two sequences of nonnegative integers in nonincreasing order and with the same sum, and let ${\cal A}(R,S)$ be the class of all $(0,1)$-matrices having row sum $R$ and column sum $S$. For a positive integer $t$, the…
We propose a novel method for the construction of orthogonal arrays. The algorithm makes use of the Kronecker Product operator in association with unit column vectors to generate new orthogonal arrays from existing orthogonal arrays. The…

Siran constructed infinite families of k-crossing-critical graphs for every k > 2 and Kochol constructed such families of simple graphs for every k > 1. Richter and Thomassen argued that, for any given k > 0 and r > 5, there are only…
We establish basic information about border rank algorithms for the matrix multiplication tensor and other tensors with symmetry. We prove that border rank algorithms for tensors with symmetry (such as matrix multiplication and the…
We initiate a study of the zero-nonzero patterns of n by n alternating sign matrices. We characterize the row (column) sum vectors of these patterns and determine their minimum term rank. In the case of connected alternating sign matrices,…
We study the rank of complex sparse matrices in which the supports of different columns have small intersections. The rank of these matrices, called design matrices, was the focus of a recent work by Barak et. al. (BDWY11) in which they…
Given a $\{0,1\}$-matrix $M$, the graph realization problem for $M$ asks if there exists a spanning forest such that the columns of $M$ are incidence vectors of paths in the forest. The problem is closely related to the recognition of…
We show that every principal submatrix of a square matrix $A$ with only entries in $\{0,1,-1\}$ has even rank if and only if $A$ is skew-symmetric up to multiplication of rows/columns by $-1$.
A known Kronecker construction of completely regular codes has been investigated taking different alphabets in the component codes. This approach is also connected with lifting constructions of completely regular codes. We obtain several…
