A finite group $G$ is called a Schur group, if any Schur ring over $G$ is the transitivity module of a permutation group on the set $G$ containing the regular subgroup of all right translations. It was proved by R. P\"oschel (1974) that…

Let $\mathcal{D} = (\mathcal{P}, \mathcal{B})$ be a $2$-$(v, k, \lambda)$ design, and let $G$ be a half-flag-transitive automorphism group of ${\cal D}$. In this article, we first establish three sufficient conditions for $G$ to be…

We describe new classification results in the theory of generalized quadrangles (= Tits-buildings of rank $2$ and type $\mathbb{B}_2$), more precisely in the (large) sub theory of skew translation generalized quadrangles ("STGQs"). Some of…

Given a flag in each of the vertex-transitive tessellations of the Euclidean plane by regular polygons, we determine the flag stabilizer under the action of the automorphism group of a regular cover. In so doing we give a presentation of…

In the mid-1990s, two groups of authors independently obtained classifications of vertex-transitive graphs whose order is a product of two distinct primes. In the intervening years it has become clear that there is additional information…

A directed triple system of order $v$ (or, DTS$(v)$) is decomposition of the complete directed graph $\vec{K_v}$ into transitive triples. A $v$-good sequencing of a DTS$(v)$ is a permutation of the points of the design, say $[x_1 \; \cdots…

A new infinite family of bipartite cubic 3-arc transitive graphs is constructed and studied. They provide the first known examples admitting a 2-arc transitive vertex-biquasiprimitive group of automorphisms for which the index two subgroup…

Staggered $t$-structures are a class of $t$-structures on derived categories of equivariant coherent sheaves. In this note, we show that the derived category of coherent sheaves on a partial flag variety, equivariant for a Borel subgroup,…

We show that for any n divisible by 3, almost all order-n Steiner triple systems have a perfect matching (also known as a parallel class or resolution class). In fact, we prove a general upper bound on the number of perfect matchings in a…

Sets of signed permutation matrices satisfying the GR(4,4) algebra are shown to be, up to sign, left cosets of Klein's famous Vierergruppe. In this way we verify the count done by computer in 2012, and set it in a more significant…

In this paper we give the first construction of a q-analog of a Steiner system. Using a computer search we found at least 26 q-Steiner Systems S_2[2,3,13] admitting the normalizer of a singer cycle as a group of automorphisms.

Here we study the automorphism groups of $1$-designs constructed from finite nonabelian simple groups by using two methods presented in Moori (Information Security, Coding Theory and Related Combinatorics, 2011). We obtain some general…

Kontsevich and Soibelman reformulated and slightly generalised the topological recursion of math-ph/0702045, seeing it as a quantization of certain quadratic Lagrangians in $T^*V$ for some vector space $V$. KS topological recursion is a…

The flower at a point x in a Steiner triple system (X; B) is the set of all triples containing x. Denote by J3F(r) the set of all integers k such that there exists a collection of three STS(2r+1) mutually intersecting in the same set of k +…

We prove that categorified quantum sl(2) is an inverse limit of Flag 2-categories defined using cohomology rings of iterated flag varieties. This inverse limit is an instance of a 2-limit in a bicategory giving rise to a universal property…

We say that a group G acts infinitely transitively on a set X if for every integer m the induced diagonal action of G is transitive on the cartesian mth power of X with the diagonals removed. We describe three classes of affine algebraic…

We show that for any n divisible by 3, almost all order-n Steiner triple systems admit a decomposition of almost all their triples into disjoint perfect matchings (that is, almost all Steiner triple systems are almost resolvable).

A non-degenerate second-order maximally conformally superintegrable system in dimension 2 naturally gives rise to a quadric with position dependent coefficients. It is shown how the system's St\"ackel class can be obtained from this…

Consider an almost-simple algebraic group G and a choice of complex root of unity q. We study the category of quasi-coherent sheaves $\mathscr{X}_q$ on the half-quantum flag variety, which itself forms a sheaf of tensor categories over the…

The intersection of two Steiner triple systems (X,A) and (X,B) is the set A intersect B. The fine intersection problem for Steiner triple systems is to determine for each v, the set I(v), consisting of all possible pairs (m,n) such that…
