The main goal of the paper is to establish a sufficient condition for a two-valenced association scheme to be schurian and separable. To this end, an analog of the Desargues theorem is introduced for a noncommutative geometry defined by the…

We construct a pair of non-commutative rank 8 association schemes from a rank 3 non-symmetric association scheme. For the pair, two association schemes have the same character table but different Frobenius-Schur indicators. This situation…

Z-mapping graph is a balanced bipartite graph $G$ of a digraph $D$ by split each vertex of $D$ into a pair of vertices of $G$. Based on the property of the $G$, it is proved that if $D$ is strong connected and $G$ is Hamiltonian, then $D$…

We prove that an equivalent condition for a uniform space to be coverable is that the images of the natural projections in the fundamental inverse system are uniformly open in a certain sense. As corollaries we (1) obtain a concrete way to…

We prove that all (generalized) Higman groups on at least $5$ generators are superrigid for measure equivalence. More precisely, let $k\ge 5$, and let $H$ be a group with generators $a_1,\dots,a_k$, and Baumslag-Solitar relations given by…

We prove that a strongly connected balanced bipartite digraph $D$ of order $2a$ is hamiltonian, provided $a\geq3$ and $d(x)+d(y)\geq 3a$ for every pair of vertices $x$, $y$ with a common in-neighbour or a common out-neighbour in $D$.

We construct inhomogeneous isoparametric families of hypersurfaces with non-austere focal set on each symmetric space of non-compact type and rank greater than or equal to 3. If the rank is greater than or equal to 4, there are infinitely…

A conjecture of Carsten Thomassen states that every 4-connected line graph is hamiltonian. It is known that the conjecture is true for 7-connected line graphs. We improve this by showing that any 5-connected line graph of minimum degree at…

A maniplex of rank n s an n-valent properly edge-coloured graph that generalises, simultaneously, maps on surfaces and abstract polytopes. The problem of stability in maniplexes is a natural variant of the problem of stability in graphs. A…

In this paper we show that for any fusion $\mathcal{B}$ of an association scheme $\mathcal{A}$, the generalized Hamming scheme $H(n,\mathcal{B})$ is a nontrivial fusion of $H(n,\mathcal{A})$. We analyze the case where $\mathcal{A}$ is the…

We find a two-parameter family of ordinary differential systems in dimension five with the affine Weyl group symmetry of type $D_3^{(2)}$. We show its symmetry and holomorphy conditions. This is the second example which gave higher order…

We classify the pairwise transitive 2-designs, that is, 2-designs such that a group of automorphisms is transitive on the following five sets of ordered pairs: point-pairs, incident point-block pairs, non-incident point-block pairs,…

We prove that a generically regular semisimple Higgs bundle equipped with a non-degenerate symmetric pairing on any Riemann surface always has a harmonic metric compatible with the pairing. We also study the classification of such…

An irreducible character $\chi$ of an association scheme is called nonlinear if the multiplicity of $\chi$ is greater than $1$. The main result of this paper gives a characterization of commutative association schemes with at most two…

We show that any two Hadamard graphs on the same number of vertices are quantum isomorphic. This follows from a more general recipe for showing quantum isomorphism of graphs arising from certain association schemes. The main result is built…

In this note, we prove that every 4-connected optimal 2-planar graph is Hamiltonian-connected. Furthermore, we show that the 4-connectedness condition is sharp by constructing infinitely many 3-connected optimal 2-planar graphs that are…

In this paper, we investigate hypergroups which arise from association schemes in a canonical way; this class of hypergroups is called realizable. We first study basic algebraic properties of realizable hypergroups. Then we prove that two…

We show that every 4-uniform hypergraph with $n$ vertices and minimum pair degree at least $(5/9+o(1))n^2/2$ contains a tight Hamiltonian cycle. This degree condition is asymptotically optimal.

We give a positive answer to the Chavel's conjecture [J. Diff. Geom. 4 (1970), 13-20]: a simply connected rank one normal homogeneous space is symmetric if any pair of conjugate points are isotropic. It implies that all simply connected…

A classical theorem of Micallef says that if $F \colon (\Sigma, g) \to \mathbb{R}^4$ is a stable minimal immersion of an oriented $2$-dimensional complete Riemannian manifold (that is parabolic) into $\mathbb{R}^4$, it is necessarily…
