Hilbert order is widely applied in many areas. However, most of the algorithms are confined to low dimensional cases. In this paper, algorithms for encoding and decoding arbitrary dimensional Hilbert order are presented. Eight algorithms…

Let $\mathrm{pod}_{-3}(n)$ denote the number of partition triples of $n$ where the odd parts in each partition are distinct. We find many arithmetic properties of $\mathrm{pod}_{-3}(n)$ involving the following infinite family of…

We show that the maximum number of unit distances or of diameters in a set of n points in d-dimensional Euclidean space is attained only by specific types of Lenz constructions, for all d >= 4 and n sufficiently large, depending on d. As a…

Sliced Latin hypercube designs (SLHDs) are widely used in computer experiments with both quantitative and qualitative factors and in batches. Optimal SLHDs achieve better space-filling property on the whole experimental region. However,…

Two Latin squares $L=[l(i,j)]$ and $M=[m(i,j)]$, of even order $n$ with entries $\{0,1,2,\ldots,n-1\}$, are said to be nearly orthogonal if the superimposition of $L$ on $M$ yields an $n\times n$ array $A=[(l(i,j),m(i,j))]$ in which each…

We investigate pairs of diagonal cubic equations with integral coefficients. For a class of such Diophantine systems with 11 or more variables, we are able to establish that the number of integral solutions in a large box is at least as…

We are answering the question why 4-dimensional space has the metric 1+3 by making a general argument from a certain type of equations of motion linear in momentum for any spin (except spin zero) in any even dimension d. All known free…

In this paper we propose a general ternary construction of lattices from three rows and ternary codes. Most laminated lattices and Kappa lattices in ${\bf R}^n$, $n\leq 24$ can be recovered from our tenary construction naturally. This…

All indecomposable unimodular hermitian lattices in dimensions 14 and 15 over the ring of integers in $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-3})$ are determined. Precisely one lattice in dimension 14 and two lattices in dimension 15 have minimal norm 3.

In this work, we calculate leading-order anomalous dimension matrices for dimension-6 four-quark operators which appear in the operator product expansion of flavour non-diagonal and diagonal vector and axial-vector two-point correlation…

We continue our systematic search for symmetric Hadamard matrices based on the so called propus construction. In a previous paper this search covered the orders $4v$ with odd $v\le41$. In this paper we cover the cases $v=43,45,47,49,51$.…

Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a finite set of integer points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, which we assume has many symmetries, and let $P\in\mathbb{R}^d$ be a fixed point. We calculate the distances from $P$ to the points in $\mathcal{S}$ and compare the…

Orthogonal surfaces are nice mathematical objects which have interesting connections to various fields, e.g., integer programming, monomial ideals and order dimension. While orthogonal surfaces in one or two dimensions are rather trivial…

The orthogonal projection of a 4-cube onto a uniform random 3-subspace in R^4 is a convex 3-polyhedron P with 14 vertices almost surely. Three numerical characteristics of P -- volume, surface area and mean width -- are studied. These…

The Fibonacci cube $\Gamma_n$ is obtained from the $n$-cube $Q_n$ by removing all the vertices that contain two consecutive 1s. If, in addition, the vertices that start and end with 1 are removed, the Lucas cube $\Lambda_n$ is obtained. The…

A paper by Cavenagh and Wanless diagnosed the possible intersection of any two transversals of the back circulant Latin square B_n, and used the result to completely determine the spectrum for 2-way k-homogeneous latin trades. We give a…

Recent research on computing the diameter of geometric intersection graphs has made significant strides, primarily focusing on the 2D case where truly subquadratic-time algorithms were given for simple objects such as unit-disks and…

We present an explicit basis for orders of arbitrary level N>1 in definite rational quaternion algebras. These orders have applications to computations of spaces of elliptic and quaternionic modular forms.

We discuss the problem of existence of latin squares without a substructure consisting of six elements $(r_1,c_2,l_3)$, $(r_2,c_3,l_1)$, $(r_3,c_1,l_2)$, $(r_2,c_1,l_3)$, $(r_3,c_2,l_1)$, $(r_1,c_3,l_2)$. Equivalently, the corresponding…

We consider the problem of orienting the edges of the $n$-dimensional hypercube so only two different in-degrees $a$ and $b$ occur. We show that this can be done, for two specified in-degrees, if and only if an obvious necessary condition…
