We give some new explicit examples of putatively optimal projective spherical designs. i.e., ones for which there is numerical evidence that they are of minimal size. These form continuous families, and so have little apparent symmetry in…
An RNA secondary structure is designable if there is an RNA sequence which can attain its maximum number of base pairs only by adopting that structure. The combinatorial RNA design problem, introduced by Hale\v{s} et al. in 2016, is to…
In this paper, we propose a class of super-schemes for efficiently solving nonlinear unconstrained optimization problems. The proposed approach introduces two novel choices of step-size parameters, leading to efficient descent directions…
A large family of linear, usually overdetermined, systems of partial differential equations that admit a multiplication of solutions, i.e, a bi-linear and commutative mapping on the solution space, is studied. This family of PDE's contains…
The regular polyhedra have the highest order of 3D symmetries and are exceptionally at- tractive templates for (self)-assembly using minimal types of building blocks, from nano-cages and virus capsids to large scale constructions like glass…
In 2000, Rees and Shalaby constructed simple indecomposable two-fold cyclic triple systems for all v congruent to 0, 1, 3, 4, 7, and 9 (mod 12) where v = 4 or v>11, using Skolem-type sequences. We construct, using Skolem-type sequences,…
Modern experimental methods enable the creation of self-assembly building blocks with tunable interactions, but optimally exploiting this tunability for the self-assembly of desired structures remains an important challenge. Many studies of…
We give the first example of a mosaic of three combinatorial designs with distinct parameters $2$-$(13,3,1)$, $2$-$(13,4,2)$, and $2$-$(13,6,5)$. Furthermore, we give examples of mosaics of $2$-$(9,3,2)$ designs that are not resolvable,…
Any stretching of Ringel's non-Pappus pseudoline arrangement when projected into the Euclidean plane, implicitly contains a particular arrangement of nine triangles. This arrangement has a complex constraint involving the sines of its…
The interplay between coding theory and $t$-designs started many years ago. While every $t$-design yields a linear code over every finite field, the largest $t$ for which an infinite family of $t$-designs is derived directly from a linear…
We give estimates on the number of combinatorial designs, which prove (and generalise) a conjecture of Wilson from 1974 on the number of Steiner Triple Systems. This paper also serves as an expository treatment of our recently developed…
In [Bal18] a new method of constructing simplex designs based on cyclic group on $n$ elements has been proposed. One of the claims put forward therein is existence of 3-point simplex 3-design in dimension $d = 3$. In this manuscript we…
A new one-parameter family of iterative method for solving nonlinear equations is constructed and studied. Two variants, both with cubic convergence, are developed, one for finding simple zeros and other for multiple zeros of known…
We prove that the set of non-degenerate second order maximally superintegrable systems in the complex Euclidean plane carries a natural structure of a projective variety, equipped with a linear isometry group action. This is done by…
It has been known for a long time that $t$-designs can be employed to construct both linear and nonlinear codes and that the codewords of a fixed weight in a code may hold a $t$-design. While a lot of progress in the direction of…
Selection of 25 examples from extensive nontrivial families for different types of nonlinear PDEs and their formal general solutions are given. The main goal here is to show on examples the types of solvable PDEs and what their general…
Let $G$ be an almost simple group. We prove that if $x \in G$ has prime order $p \ge 5$, then there exists an involution $y$ such that $<x,y>$ is not solvable. Also, if $x$ is an involution then there exist three conjugates of $x$ that…
We provide a method to construct $t$-designs from weighing matrices and association schemes. One instance of our method can produce a $3$-design from any (symmetric or skew-symmetric) conference matrix, thereby providing a partial answer to…
We construct new families of completely regular codes by concatenation methods. By combining parity check matrices of cyclic Hamming codes, we obtain families of completely regular codes. In all cases, we compute the intersection array of…
The resolutions and maximal sets of compatible resolutions of all 2-(120,8,1) designs arising frommaximal (120,8)-arcs in the known projective planes of order 16 are computed. It is shown that each of these designs is embeddable in a unique…
