A theory of matchings for finite subsets of an abelian group, introduced in connection with a conjecture of Wakeford on canonical forms for homogeneous polynomials, has since been extended to the setting of field extensions and to that of…
The origins of the notion of matchings in groups spawn from a linear algebra problem proposed by E. K. Wakeford [24] which was tackled in 1996 [10]. In this paper, we first discuss unmatchable subsets in abelian groups. Then we formulate…
The concept of matchings originated in group theory to address a linear algebra problem related to canonical forms for symmetric tensors. In an abelian group $(G,+)$, a matching is a bijection $f: A \to B$ between two finite subsets $A$ and…
A matching from a finite subset $A$ of an abelian group to another subset $B$ is a bijection $f:A\rightarrow B$ with the property that $a+f(a)$ never lies in $A$. A matching is called acyclic if it is uniquely determined by its multiplicity…
In this paper, we formulate and prove linear analogues of results concerning matchings in groups. A matching in a group G is a bijection f between two finite subsets A,B of G with the property, motivated by old questions on symmetric…
In this paper, we introduce the notions of matching matrices in groups and vector spaces, which lead to some necessary conditions for existence of acyclic matching in abelian groups and its linear analogue. We also study the linear local…
We formulate and prove matroid analogues of results concerning matchings in groups. A matching in an abelian group $(G,+)$ is a bijection $f:A\to B$ between two finite subsets $A,B$ of $G$ satisfying $a+f(a)\notin A$ for all $a\in A$. A…
In this paper, we define locally matchable subsets of a group which is derived from the concept of matchings in groups and used as a tool to give alternative proofs for existing results in matching theory. We also give the linear analogue…
In this paper, we define locally matchable subsets of a group which is extracted from the concept of matchings in groups and used as a tool to give alternative proofs for existing results in matching theory. We also give the linear analogue…
We present sufficient conditions for the existence of matchings in abelian groups and their linear counterparts. These conditions lead to extensions of existing results in matching theory. Additionally, we classify subsets within abelian…
A matching in a group G is a bijection f from a subset A to a subset B in G such that af(a) does not belong to A for all a in A. The group G is said to have the matching property if, for any finite subsets A,B in G of same cardinality with…
A matching from a finite subset $A\subset\mathbb{Z}^n$ to another subset $B\subset\mathbb{Z}^n$ is a bijection $f : A \rightarrow B$ with the property that $a+f(a)$ never lies in $A$. A matching is called acyclic if it is uniquely…
In this paper we prove a sufficient condition for the existence of matchings in arbitrary groups and its linear analogue, which lead to some generalizations of the existing results in the theory of matchings in groups and central extensions…
Deltoids provide a natural framework for studying defective (partial) matchings in abelian groups, and we develop both structure and existence results in this setting. Given finite subsets $A$ and $B$ of an abelian group $G$, a matching is…
This paper develops matroidal analogues of classical results on matchings in abelian groups. By embedding matroid ground sets in an abelian group, we introduce base matchings between matroid bases, recover the group-theoretic setting in the…
The notion of acyclic matching property was provided by Losonczy and it was proved that torsion-free groups admit this property. In this paper, we introduce a duality of acyclic matching as a tool for classification of some Abelian groups,…
For a given extension $A \subset E$ of associative algebras we describe and classify up to an isomorphism all $A$-complements of $E$, i.e. all subalgebras $X$ of $E$ such that $E = A + X$ and $A \cap X = \{0\}$. Let $X$ be a given…
A linking system of difference sets is a collection of mutually related group difference sets, whose advantageous properties have been used to extend classical constructions of systems of linked symmetric designs. The central problems are…
The purpose of this note is to give a number of open problems on matching theory and their relation to the well-known results in this area. We also give a linear analogue of the acyclic matchings.
Automorphism groups are intrincate conjugacy invariants for subshifts, which can reveal important features of the dynamical structure of a shift action. One important case is the study of automorphism groups when the underlying subshift has…
