In this paper we investigate the geometric properties of the configuration consisting of a $k$-subspace $\Gamma$ and a canonical subgeometry $\Sigma$ in $\mathrm{PG}(n-1,q^n)$, with $\Gamma\cap\Sigma=\emptyset$. The idea motivating is that…

This paper considers a generalization of the existing concept of parallel (with respect to a given connection) geometric objects and its possible usage as a suggesting rule in searching for adequate field equations in theoretical physics.…

It is shown that inhomogeneous broadening of the spectral line of active impurities may sustain simultaneously parity (P) and time (T) symmetries of a medium, in a finite range of field frequencies, what is forbidden by the causality…

Every maximum scattered linear set in $\mathrm{PG}(1,q^5)$ is the projection of an $\mathbb{F}_q$-subgeometry $\Sigma$ of $\mathrm{PG}(4,q^5)$ from a plane $\Gamma$ external to the secant variety to $\Sigma$. The pair $(\Gamma,\Sigma)$ will…

Let $\pi$ be an order-$q$-subplane of $PG(2,q^3)$ that is exterior to $\ell_\infty$. The exterior splash of $\pi$ is the set of $q^2+q+1$ points on $\ell_\infty$ that lie on an extended line of $\pi$. Exterior splashes are projectively…

This is the first in a series of articles devoted to providing a foundation for a theory of flocks of arbitrary cones in PG(3,q). The desire to have such a theory stems from a need to better understand the very significant and applicable…

In this paper, we introduce and study the Parallel Polyhedral Projection Method (3PM) and the Approximate Parallel Polyhedral Projection Method (A3PM) for finding a point in the intersection of finitely many closed convex sets. Each…

The maximum scattered linear sets in $PG(1,q^n)$ have been completely classified for $n \le 4$ by Csajb\'ok-Zanella and Lavrauw-Van de Voorde. Here a wide class of linear sets in $PG(1,q^5)$ is studied which depends on two parameters.…

The polygonal distributions are a class of distributions that can be defined via the mixture of triangular distributions over the unit interval. The class includes the uniform and trapezoidal distributions, and is an alternative to the beta…

Given independent normally distributed points A,B,C,D in Euclidean 3-space, let Q denote the plane determined by A,B,C and D^ denote the orthogonal projection of D onto Q. The probability that the tetrahedron ABCD is acute remains…

Given two parallelisms of a projective space we describe a construction, called blending, that yields a (possibly new) parallelism of this space. For a projective double space $(\mathbb{P},\parallel_\ell,\parallel_r)$ over a quaternion skew…

We consider the action of the $2$-dimensional projective special linear group $PSL(2,q)$ on the projective line $PG(1,q)$ over the finite field $\F_q$, where $q$ is an odd prime power. A subset $S$ of $PSL(2,q)$ is said to be an…

A well known class of objects in combinatorial design theory are {group divisible designs}. Here, we introduce the $q$-analogs of group divisible designs. It turns out that there are interesting connections to scattered subspaces,…

Given a graph $G$, we have the adjacency matrix $A(G)$ and degree diagonal matrix $D(G)$. The $Q$-spectrum is the all eigenvalues of $Q$-matrix $Q(G)=A(G)+D(G)$. A class of graphs is determined by their generalized $Q$-spectrum (DGQS for…

Based on the classical Pl\"ucker correspondence, we present algebraic and geometric properties of discrete integrable line complexes in $CP^3$. Algebraically, these are encoded in a discrete integrable system which appears in various guises…

This paper deals with the typical cell in a Poisson line tessellation in the plane whose directional distribution is concentrated on three equally spread values with possibly different weights. Such a random polygon can only be a triangle,…

A divisible design graph is a graph whose adjacency matrix is an incidence matrix of a (group) divisible design. Divisible design graphs were introduced in 2011 as a generalization of $(v,k,\lambda)$-graphs. Here we describe four new…

A regular linear line complex is a three-parameter set of lines in space, whose Pl\"ucker vectors lie in a hyperplane, which is not tangent to the Klein quadric. Our main result is a bound $O(n^{1/2}m^{3/4} + m+n)$ for the number of…

Triple factorisations of finite groups $G$ of the form $G=PQP$ are essential in the study of Lie theory as well as in geometry. Geometrically, each triple factorisation $G=PQP$ corresponds to a $G$-flag transitive point/line geometry such…

In this paper we are interested in the stratum H^{hyp}(4) of translation surfaces, which consists of pairs (M,\omega), where M is a hyper-elliptic Riemann surface of genus 3, and \omega is a holopmorphic 1-form on M having only one zero. We…
