In this paper, by studying the position of umbilical normal vectors in the normal bundle, we prove that pseudo-umbilical totally real submanifolds with flat normal connection in non-flat complex space forms must be minimal.

New $s$-extremal extremal unimodular lattices in dimensions $38$, $40$, $42$ and $44$ are constructed from self-dual codes over $\mathbb{F}_5$ by Construction A. In the process of constructing these codes, we obtain a self-dual $[44,22,14]$…

In this article, we construct linear codes over the commutative non-unital ring $I$ of size four. We obtain their Lee-weight distributions and study their binary Gray images. Under certain mild conditions, these classes of binary codes are…

We construct a $40$-dimensional extremal Type II lattice not having any subsets consisting of $40$ orthogonal minimal vectors, and determine the automorphism group. This lattice gives an example different from the $16470$ lattices…

Motivated by the behavior of the trace pairing over tame cyclic number fields, we introduce the notion of tame lattices. Given an arbitrary non-trivial lattice $\mathcal{L}$ we construct a parametric family of full-rank sub-lattices…

In this paper, we study spherical $T$-designs and their harmonic strength $\text{Hst}(X)$ on the unit circle $S^1$. For any finite set $T\subset\mathbb{N}$, we constructively demonstrate the existence of a finite design $X$ such that…

We define a notion of vexillar design for the flag variety in the spirit of the spherical designs introduced by Delsarte, Goethals and Seidel. For a finite subgroup of the orthogonal group, we explain how conditions on the group have the…

Given $n+1$ unit vectors in $\mathbf{R}^n$ or $\mathbf{C}^n,$ consider the absolute values of the determinants of the vectors taken $n$ at a time. By taking a geometric perspective, we show that the minimum of these determinants is…

The theoretical minimum emittance cells are the optimal configurations for achieving the absolute minimum emittance, if specific optics constraints are satisfied at the middle of the cell's dipole. Linear lattice design options based on an…

In an earlier paper (math.NT/9906019) we showed that any integral unimodular lattice L of rank n which is not isometric with Z^n has a characteristic vector of norm at most n-8. [A "characteristic vector" of L is a vector w in L such that…

For some extremal (optimal) odd unimodular lattices L in dimensions n=12,16,20,32,36,40 and 44, we determine all positive integers k such that L contains a k-frame. This result yields the existence of an extremal Type I Zk-code of lengths…

We formulate explicit predictions concerning the symmetry of optimal codes in compact metric spaces. This motivates the study of optimal codes in various spaces where these predictions can be tested.

Anti-elementarity is a strong way of ensuring that a class of structures , in a given first-order language, is not closed under elementary equivalence with respect to any infinitary language of the form L $\infty$$\lambda$. We prove that…

We derive general linear programming bounds for spherical $(k,k)$-designs. This includes lower bounds for the minimum cardinality and lower and upper bounds for minimum and maximum energy, respectively. As applications we obtain a universal…

We use minimal tilting complexes to construct an explicit bijection between the set of thick tensor ideals with the two-out-of-three property in the category of finite-dimensional modules over a quantum group at a root of unity and the set…

This paper partially addresses the problem of characterizing the lengths of vectors in a family of Euclidean lattices that arise from any CM number field. We define a modified quadratic form on these lattices, the weighted norm, that…

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…

We exhibit algorithms for calculating Tits' buildings and orbits of vectors in a lattice $L$ for certain subgroups of $\operatorname{O}(L)$. We discuss how these algorithms can be applied to understand the configuration of boundary…

We identify universal polar dual pairs of spherical codes $C$ and $D$ such that for a large class of potential functions $h$ the minima of the discrete $h$-potential of $C$ on the sphere occur at the points of $D$ and vice versa. Moreover,…
