We describe the classification of orthogonal arrays OA$(2048,14,2,7)$, or, equivalently, completely regular $\{14;2\}$-codes in the $14$-cube ($30848$ equivalence classes). In particular, we find that there is exactly one…
In this paper, we show how certain three-class association schemes and orthogonal arrays give rise to partial geometric designs. We also investigate the connections between partial geometric designs and certain regular graphs having three…
It is known that a Delsarte $t$-design in a $Q$-polynomial association scheme has degree at least $\left \lceil{\frac{t}{2}}\right \rceil $. Following Ionin and Shrikhande who studied combinatorial $(2s-1)$-designs (i.e., Delsarte designs…
An Orthogonally resolvable Matching Design OMD$(n, k)$ is a partition of the edges the complete graph $K_n$ into matchings of size $k$, called blocks, such that the blocks can be resolved in two different ways. Such a design can be…
In computer experiments, it has become a standard practice to select the inputs that spread out as uniformly as possible over the design space. The resulting designs are called space-filling designs and they are undoubtedly desirable…
Higher-dimensional orthogonal packing problems have a wide range of practical applications, including packing, cutting, and scheduling. Previous efforts for exact algorithms have been unable to avoid structural problems that appear for…
We study two popular ways to sketch the shortest path distances of an input graph. The first is distance preservers, which are sparse subgraphs that agree with the distances of the original graph on a given set of demand pairs. Prior work…
We study the convergence of the Augmented Decomposition Algorithm (ADA) proposed in [32] for solving multi-block separable convex minimization problems subject to linear constraints. We show that the global convergence rate of the exact ADA…
The construction of quantum error-correcting codes (QECCs) with good parameters is a hot topic in the area of quantum information and quantum computing. Quantum maximum distance separable (QMDS) codes are optimal because the minimum…
We consider the optimization problem of constructing a binary orthogonal array (OA) starting from a bigger one, by removing a specified amount of lines. In particular, we develop a genetic algorithm (GA) where the underlying chromosomes are…
We give a method of constructing self-orthogonal codes from equitable partitions of association schemes. By applying this method we construct self-orthogonal codes from some distance-regular graphs. Some of the obtained codes are optimal.…
The focus of this thesis is the study and construction of covering arrays, relying on maximal period sequences and other tools from finite fields. A covering array of strength $t$, denoted $\mathrm{CA}(N; t, k,v)$, is an $N\times k$ array…
Orthogonal minimally aliased response surface (OMARS) designs permit the study of quantitative factors at three levels using an economical number of runs. In these designs, the linear effects of the factors are neither aliased with each…
We provide a method for parallelizing the branch-and-bound with isomorphism pruning algorithm developed by Margot [Symmetric ILP: Coloring and small integers, Discrete Optimization (4) (2007), 40-62]. We apply our method to classify…
Designing a new class of rectangular two-dimensional sparse array to enhance the signal resolving capabilities with a limited number of sensors has always been a challenge. We explore the non-uniformity of the sparse arrays to enhance the…
Orientable sequences of order n are infinite periodic sequences with symbols drawn from a finite alphabet of size k with the property that any particular subsequence of length n occurs at most once in a period in either direction. They were…
We introduce systematic methods to create optimal designs for order-of-addition (OofA) experiments, those that study the order in which $m$ components are applied---for example, the order in which chemicals are added to a reaction or layers…
We study two popular ways to sketch the shortest path distances of an input graph. The first is distance preservers, which are sparse subgraphs that agree with the distances of the original graph on a given set of demand pairs. Prior work…
Difference arrays are used in applications such as software testing, authentication codes and data compression. Pseudo-orthogonal Latin squares are used in experimental designs. A special class of pseudo-orthogonal Latin squares are the…
Let $G$ be an unweighted, undirected graph. An additive $k$-spanner of $G$ is a subgraph $H$ that approximates all distances between pairs of nodes up to an additive error of $+k$, that is, it satisfies $d_H(u,v) \le d_G(u,v)+k$ for all…
