A triple system is cancellative if it does not contain three distinct sets $A,B,C$ such that the symmetric difference of $A$ and $B$ is contained in $C$. We show that every cancellative triple system $\mathcal{H}$ that satisfies certain…
A Steiner structure $\dS = \dS_q[t,k,n]$ is a set of $k$-dimensional subspaces of $\F_q^n$ such that each $t$-dimensional subspace of $\F_q^n$ is contained in exactly one subspace of $\dS$. Steiner structures are the $q$-analogs of Steiner…
Can every physical system simulate any Turing machine? This is a classical problem which is intimately connected with the undecidability of certain physical phenomena. Concerning fluid flows, Moore asked in [15] if hydrodynamics is capable…
The paper is an investigation of the structure of block-transitive automorphism groups of a 3-design with small block size. Let $G$ be a block-transitive automorphism group of a nontrivial $3$-$(v,k,\lambda)$ design $\mathcal{D}$ with $k\le…
A group $G$ has cube-free order if no prime to the third power divides $|G|$. We describe an algorithm that given two cube-free groups $G$ and $H$ of known order, decides whether $G\cong H$, and, if so, constructs an isomorphism $G\to H$.…
By a famous result of Doyen, Hubaut and Vandensavel \cite{DHV}, the 2-rank of a Steiner triple system on $2^n-1$ points is at least $2^n -1 -n$, and equality holds only for the classical point-line design in the projective geometry…
Let STS(n) denote the number of Steiner triple systems on n vertices, and let F(n) denote the number of 1-factorizations of the complete graph on n vertices. We prove the following upper bound. STS(n) <= ((1 + o(1)) (n/e^2))^(n^2/6) F(n) <=…
The Kramer-Mesner method for constructing designs with a prescribed automorphism group $G$ has proven effective many times. In the special case of Steiner designs, the task reduces to solving an exact cover problem, with the advantage that…
A complete classification is given of finite groups whose elements are partitioned into three orbits by the automorphism groups, solving the long-standing classification problem initiated by G. Higman in 1963. As a consequence, a…
We propose a new approach to studies on partial Steiner triple systems consisting in determining complete graphs contained in them. We establish the structure which complete graphs yield in a minimal PSTS that contains them. As a by-product…
The classification, up to isomorphism, of all self-embedding monomial power permutations of Hamming Steiner triple systems of order n=2^m-1 for small m, m < 23, is given. As far as we know, for m in {5,7,11,13,17,19}, all given…
This is my master thesis, under the supervision of Professor Amiram Braun. We classify in these paper the Gorenstein invariant rings in the modular case, where the group that acts on the 3-variable polynomial ring is finite , and the Char…
The transitivity degree of a group $G$ is the supremum of all integers $k$ such that $G$ admits a faithful $k$-transitive action. Few obstructions are known to impose an upper bound on the transitivity degree for infinite groups. The…
We introduce an impartial combinatorial game on Steiner triple systems called Nofil. Players move alternately, choosing points of the triple system. If a player is forced to fill a block on their turn, they lose. We explore the play of…
Nov\'{a}k conjectured in 1974 that for any cyclic Steiner triple systems of order $v$ with $v\equiv 1\pmod{6}$, it is always possible to choose one block from each block orbit so that the chosen blocks are pairwise disjoint. We consider the…
It is well-known that pythagorean triples can be represented by points of the unit circle with rational coordinates. These points form an abelian group, and we describe its structure. This structural description yields, almost immediately,…
``What kind of ring can be represented as the singular cohomology ring of a space?'' is a classic problem in algebraic topology, posed by Steenrod. In this paper, we consider this problem when rings are the graded Stanley-Reisner rings, in…
Fix a prime power $q$ and parameters $1\leq t\leq k\leq n$, the corresponding Steiner system in the Grassmann scheme, or the $q$-Steiner system, is a collection $\mathfrak{B}$ of $k$-dimensional subspaces of $\mathbb{F}_{q}^n$ such that for…
A Steiner 2-design of block size k is an ordered pair (V, B) of finite sets such that B is a family of k-subsets of V in which each pair of elements of V appears exactly once. A Steiner 2-design is said to be r-even-free if for every…
We introduce Poisson triple systems, which are vector spaces with 3 trilinear operations satisfying 9 polynomial identities of degree 5. We show that every Poisson triple system has a universal enveloping Poisson algebra. Finally, we…
