In this work we show that every minimal code in a semisimple group algebra $\mathbb{F}_qG$ is essential if $G$ is a simple group. Since the alternating group $A_n$ is simple if $n=3$ or $n\geq 5$, we present some examples of minimal codes…
We prove that the length of the shortest identity in a finite simple group of Lie type of rank $r$ defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$, is bounded (from above and below) by explicit polynomials in $q$ and $r$.
The smallest eigenvalues of (distance-j) Hamming graphs with distance parameter j at least half the length were completely determined by Brouwer et al. (2018). In the present work, we address the complementary regime, namely distances j…
For each integer $s\geq 1$, we present a family of curves that are $\mathbb{F}_q$-Frobenius nonclassical with respect to the linear system of plane curves of degree s. In the case $s = 2$, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for…
Some families of linear permutation polynomials of $\mathbb{F}_{q^{ms}}$ with coefficients in $\mathbb{F}_{q^{m}}$ are explicitly described (via conditions on their coefficients) as isomorphic images of classical subgroups of the general…
In this paper, we extend the theory of minimal limit key polynomials of valuations on the polynomial ring $\kx$. We use the theory of cuts on ordered abelian groups to show that the previous results on bounded sets of key polynomials of…
We present a class of homogeneous ideals which are generated by monomials and binomials of degree two and are set-theoretic complete intersections. This class includes certain reducible varieties of minimal degree and, in particular, the…
In this article, we derive the list of the characteristic polynomials of the Frobenius endomorphism of simple supersingular abelian varieties of dimension $1,~2,~3,~4,~5,~6,~7$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$ where $q=p^n$, $n$ odd.
A linear arrangement is a labeling or a numbering or a linear ordering of the vertices of a graph. In this paper we solve the minimum linear arrangement problem for bijective connection graphs (for short BC graphs) which include hypercubes,…
Given a finite field $\F_q$ and $n\in \N^*$, one could try to compute all polynomial endomorphisms $\F_q^n\lp \F_q^n$ up to a certain degree with a specific property. We consider the case $n=3$. If the degree is low (like 2,3, or 4) and the…
We give an new, elementary proof of the result that the smallest non-cyclic quotients of automorphism group of free group is the linear group over the field of two elements, and moreover all minimal quotients are obtained by the standard…
Let $F(x, y)$ be a binary form of degree at least three and non-zero discriminant. We estimate the area $A_F$ bounded by the curve $|F(x, y)| = 1$ for four families of binary forms. The first two families that we are interested in are…
In this paper we establish the relation between key polynomials (as defined in \cite{SopivNova}) and minimal pairs of definition of a valuation. We also discuss truncations of valuations on a polynomial ring $K[x]$. We prove that a…
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of subsets of a ground set $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ with $|\mathcal{F}|=m$, and let $\mathcal{F}^{\updownarrow}$ denote the family of all subsets of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ that are subsets or supersets of sets in…
Much of the analysis of F-theory-based Standard Models boils down to computing cohomologies of line bundles on matter curves. By varying parameters one can degenerate such matter curves to singular ones, typically with many nodes, where the…
By means of filters, minimal R_1 and minimal regular topologies are characterized on suitable intervals consisting of non-trivial R_0 topologies.
The problem of finding and characterizing minimal sets of dequantizers and quantizers applied in the mapping of operators onto functions is considered, for finite-dimensional quantum systems. The general properties of such sets are…
Local sets, a graph structure invariant under local complementation, have been originally introduced in the context of quantum computing for the study of quantum entanglement within the so-called graph state formalism. A local set in a…
Building on classical theorems of Sperner and Kruskal-Katona, we investigate antichains $\mathcal F$ in the Boolean lattice $B_n$ of all subsets of $[n]:=\{1,2,\dots,n\}$, where $\mathcal F$ is flat, meaning that it contains sets of at most…
Denote by $A_n$ the set of square $(0,1)$ matrices of order $n$. The set $A_n$, $n\le8$, is partitioned into row/column permutation equivalence classes enabling derivation of various facts by simple counting. For example, the number of…
