A Barker sequence is a binary sequence for which all nontrivial aperiodic autocorrelations are at most 1 in magnitude. An old conjecture due to Turyn asserts that there is no Barker sequence of length greater than 13. In 1961, Turyn and…

We give a new proof of the fact that Barker polynomials of even degree greater than 12, and hence Barker sequences of odd length greater than 13 do not exist. This is intimately tied to irreducibility questions and proved as a consequence…

A Barker sequence is a binary sequence for which all nontrivial aperiodic autocorrelations are either 0, 1 or -1. The only known Barker sequences have length 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 11 or 13. It is an old conjecture that no longer Barker sequences…

The run vector of a binary sequence reflects the run structure of the sequence, which is given by the set of all substrings of the run length encoding. The run vector and the aperiodic autocorrelations of a binary sequence are strongly…

We show that if a Barker sequence of length $n>13$ exists, then either $n=3979201339721749133016171583224100$, or $n > 4\cdot10^{33}$. This improves the lower bound on the length of a long Barker sequence by a factor of nearly 2000. We also…

We proved recently (see \cite{lhgarasu}) the result on the title for odd prime divisors of such an $n.$ The result implies for many $n's$, more precisely, for an infinity of $n$'s with an arbitrary fixed number of prime divisors, the…

For an arbitrary integer N that is at least 2, this paper gives a construction of a strictly stationary, N-tuplewise independent sequence of (non-degenerate) bounded random variables such that the Central Limit Theorem fails to hold. The…

This research announcement describes in very rough terms methods and a computer language under development, which can be used to prove the nonexistence of binary linear codes. Over a hundred new results have been obtained by the author. For…

We prove a conjecture of Boros, Caro, F\"uredi and Yuster on the maximum number of edges in a 2-connected graph without repeated cycle lengths, which is a restricted version of a longstanding problem of Erd\H{o}s. Our proof together with…

In the paper of Gohar M. Kyureghyan and Alexander Pott (Designs, Codes and Cryptography, 29, 149-164, 2003), the linear feedback polynomials of the Sidel'nikov-Lempel-Cohn-Eastman sequences were determined for some special cases. When…

We consider the Tur\'an-type problem of bounding the size of a set $M \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^n$ that does not contain a linear copy of a given fixed set $N \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^k$, where $n$ is large compared to $k$. An Erd\H{o}s-Stone…

A complete classification of the perfect binary one-error-correcting codes of length 15 as well as their extensions of length 16 was recently carried out in [P. R. J. \"Osterg{\aa}rd and O. Pottonen, "The perfect binary one-error-correcting…

Exhibiting an explicit Boolean function with a large high-order nonlinearity is an important problem in cryptography, coding theory, and computational complexity. We prove lower bounds on the second-order, third-order, and higher-order…

We obtain an explicit formula for the number of permutations of [n] that avoid the barred pattern bar{1}43bar{5}2. A curious feature of its counting sequence, 1, 1, 2, 5, 14, 43, 145, 538, 2194,..., is that the displayed terms agree with…

The doubly shortened perfect codes of length 13 are classified utilizing the classification of perfect codes in [P.R.J. \"Osterg{\aa}rd and O. Pottonen, The perfect binary one-error-correcting codes of length 15: Part I - Classification,…

Stanley, building on work of Stern, defined an array of numbers by the recurrence $s(n, 2k) = s(n-1, k)$, $s(n, 2k+1) = s(n-1, k) + s(n-1, k+1)$. Stanley showed that, for each positive integer $r$, the sequence $s_n^r:= \sum_k s(n,k)^r$…

Turyn-type sequences, TT(n), are quadruples of {+,-1}-sequences (A;B;C;D), with lengths n,n,n,n-1 respectively, where the sum of the nonperiodic autocorrelation functions of A,B and twice that of C,D is a delta-function (i.e., vanishes…

A binary matrix has the consecutive ones property (C1P) if it is possible to order the columns so that all 1s are consecutive in every row. In [McConnell, SODA 2004 768-777] the notion of incompatibility graph of a binary matrix was…

In this paper we investigate enumeration of some classes of $n$-character strings and binary necklaces. Recall that binary necklaces are necklaces in two colors with length $n$. We prove three results (Theorems 1, 1' and 2) concerning the…

Burkill and Mirsky, and Kalmanson, prove independently that, for every $r\ge 2, n\ge 1$, there is a sequence of $r^{2^n}$ vectors in $\mathbb R^n$, which does not contain a subsequence of $r+1$ vectors $v^1, v^2,\dots,v^{r+1}$ such that,…
