A pair $\{T_0,T_1\}$ of disjoint collections of $k$-subsets (blocks) of a set $V$ of cardinality $v$ is called a $t$-$(v,k)$ trade or simply a $t$-trade if every $t$-subset of $V$ is included in the same number of blocks of $T_0$ and $T_1$.…

Mahmoodian and Soltankhah $\cite{MMS}$ conjectured that there does not exist any $t$-$(v,k)$ trade of volume $s_{i}< s <s_{i+1}$, where $s_{i}=2^{t+1}-2^{t-i}, i=0,1,..., t-1$. Also they showed that the conjecture is true for $i=0$. In this…

A 3-way $(v,k,t)$ trade $T$ of volume $m$ consists of three pairwise disjoint collections $T_1$, $T_2$ and $T_3$, each of $m$ blocks of size $k$, such that for every $t$-subset of $v$-set $V$, the number of blocks containing this $t$-subset…

A {\sf $\mu$-way Latin trade} of volume $s$ is a collection of $\mu$ partial Latin squares $T_1,T_2,...,T_{\mu}$, containing exactly the same $s$ filled cells, such that if cell $(i, j)$ is filled, it contains a different entry in each of…

A u-way (v; k; t) trade is a pair T = (X; T_1; T2,...,T_u) such that for each t-subset of v-set X the number of blocks containing this t-subset is the same in each Ti (1 <= i <=u). In the other words for each 1 <= i < j <= u, (X; T_i; T_j)…

A $\mu$-way $(v,k,t)$ $trade$ of volume $m$ consists of $\mu$ disjoint collections $T_1$, $T_2, \dots T_{\mu}$, each of $m$ blocks, such that for every $t$-subset of $v$-set $V$ the number of blocks containing this t-subset is the same in…

A $[t]$-trade is a pair $T=(T_+, T_-)$ of disjoint collections of subsets (blocks) of a $v$-set $V$ such that for every $0\le i\le t$, any $i$-subset of $V$ is included in the same number of blocks of $T_+$ and of $T_-$. It follows that…

A defining set of a Latin square is a partially filled-in Latin square which completes to no other Latin square of the same order. We introduce the concept of a $k$-strong defining set, in which if less than $k$ entries are deleted, the…

Two $n \times n$ Latin squares $L_1, L_2$ are said to be orthogonal if, for every ordered pair $(x,y)$ of symbols, there are coordinates $(i,j)$ such that $L_1(i,j) = x$ and $L_2(i,j) = y$. A $k$-MOLS is a sequence of $k$…

A Latin hypercuboid of order $n$ is a $d$-dimensional matrix of dimensions $n\times n\times\cdots\times n\times k$, with symbols from a set of cardinality $n$ such that each symbol occurs at most once in each axis-parallel line. If $k=n$…

A $t\text{-}(n,k,\lambda;q)$-design is a set of $k$-subspaces, called blocks, of an $n$-dimensional vector space $V$ over the finite field with $q$ elements such that each $t$-subspace is contained in exactly $\lambda$ blocks. A partition…

A $\mu$-way $(v, k, t)$ trade $T = \{T_{1} , T_{2}, . . ., T_{\mu} \}$ of volume $m$ consists of $\mu$ disjoint collections $T_{1}, T_{2}, \ldots, T_{\mu}$, each of $m$ blocks of size $k$, such that for every $t$-subset of $v$-set $V$ the…

The dimension of a block design is the maximum positive integer $d$ such that any $d$ of its points are contained in a proper subdesign. Pairwise balanced designs PBD$(v,K)$ have dimension at least two as long as not all points are on the…

Tur\'an number is one of primary topics in the combinatorics of finite sets,in this paper, we will present a new upper bound for Tur\'an number.

In 2008, Cavenagh and Dr\'{a}pal, et al, described a method of constructing Latin trades using groups. The Latin trades that arise from this construction are entry-transitive (that is, there always exists an autoparatopism of the Latin…

Let $\mathcal D=(\Omega, \mathcal B)$ be a pair of $v$ point set $\Omega$ and a set $\mathcal B$ consists of $k$ point subsets of $\Omega$ which are called blocks. Let $d$ be the maximal cardinality of the intersections between the distinct…

Semi-Latin squares have been extensively studied. They can be interpreted as a special case of latinized block designs where the number of columns is equal to the number of replicates in the design. Latinized row-column designs are…

The study of order volumes in financial markets has shown that these display several non-trivial statistical properties. Most studies have been focused on the bulk properties of volume of incoming orders or of realized transactions rather…

In the theory of tractability of multivariate problems one usually studies problems with finite smoothness. Then we want to know which $s$-variate problems can be approximated to within $\varepsilon$ by using, say, polynomially many in $s$…

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…
