A regular-graph design is a block design for which a pair $\{a,b\}$ of distinct points occurs in $\lambda+1$ or $\lambda$ blocks depending on whether $\{a,b\}$ is or is not an edge of a given $\delta$-regular graph. Our paper describes a…

Given a subgroup $H$ of a group $(G,+)$, a $(G,H,k,1)$ difference family (DF) is a set $\mathcal F$ of $k$-subsets of $G$ such that $\{f-f':f,f'\in F, f\neq f',F\in \mathcal F\}=G\setminus H$. Let $g\mathbb Z_{gh}$ is the subgroup of order…

An explicit construction of a family of binary LDPC codes called LU(3,q), where q is a power of a prime, was recently given. A conjecture was made for the dimensions of these codes when q is odd. The conjecture is proved in this note. The…

Let $n$ be a positive integer. Denote by $\mathrm{PG}(n,q)$ the $n$-dimensional projective space over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of order $q$. A blocking set in $\mathrm{PG}(n,q)$ is a set of points that has non-empty intersection with…

We construct all integral non-group-theoretical modular categories of dimension $p^2q^2$, where $p$ and $q$ are distinct prime numbers, establishing that a necessary and sufficient condition for their existence is that $p \mid q+1$, and…

A design is additive under an abelian group $G$ (briefly, $G$-additive) if, up to isomorphism, its point set is contained in $G$ and the elements of each block sum up to zero. The only known Steiner 2-designs that are $G$-additive for some…

We show that the metric dimension of a finite projective plane of order $q\geq 23$ is $4q-4$, and describe all resolving sets of that size. Let $\tau_2$ denote the size of the smallest double blocking set in $\mathrm{PG}(2,q)$, the…

A holey Schr\"oder design of type $h_1^{n_1}h_4^{n_2}\cdots h^{n_k}_k$ (HSD$(h_1^{n_1}h_4^{n_2}\cdots h^{n_k}_k))$ is equivalent to a frame idempotent Schr\"oder quasigroup (FISQ$(h_1^{n_1}h_4^{n_2}\cdots h^{n_k}_k))$ of order $n$ with…

This paper is mainly devoted to constructions of \(q\)-analogs of group divisible designs and their applications. We give a complete description of the action of \(G=\GL(m,q^l)\) on \(\Omega_k^{k-1}\), where $3\leq k\leq \min\left\lbrace…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $K$ with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. For unipotent elements $u \in G$ and nilpotent elements $e \in \mathfrak{g}$, the Jordan block sizes of $\operatorname{Ad}(u)$ and…

Fix positive integers $p,q,$ and $r$ so that $p$ is prime, $q=p^r$, and $q\equiv 1$ (mod $4$). Fix a graph $G$ as follows: If $r$ is odd or $p\not\equiv 3$ (mod $4$), let $G$ be the $q$-vertex Paley graph; if $r$ is even and $p\equiv 3$…

In this paper, the sufficient and necessary condition for the minimum distance of the BCH codes over $\mathbb{F}_q$ with length $q+1$ and designed distance 3 to be 3 and 4 are provided. Let $d$ be the minimum distance of the BCH code…

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…

This paper investigates $2$-$(v,5,\lambda)$ designs $\mathcal{D}$ admitting a block-transitive automorphism group $G$. We first prove that if $G$ is point-imprimitive, then $v$ must be one of 16, 21, or 81. We further provide a complete…

Let $\mathcal{D}$ be a non-trivial $G$-block-transitive $3$-$(v,k,1)$ design, where $T\leq G \leq \mathrm{Aut}(T)$ for some finite non-abelian simple group $T$. It is proved that if $T$ is a simple exceptional group of Lie type, then $T$ is…

Tang and Ding [IEEE IT 67 (2021) 244-254] studied the class of narrow-sense BCH codes $\mathcal{C}_{(q,q+1,4,1)}$ and their dual codes with $q=2^m$ and established that the codewords of the minimum (or the second minimum) weight in these…

In 1998, E. Couselo, S. Gonz\'alez, V. T. Markov, and A. A. Nechaev introduced the notions of recursive codes and recursively differentiable quasigroups. They conjectured that recursive MDS codes of dimension $2$ and length $4$ exist over…

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…

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…

Maximum distance separable (MDS) codes are very important in both theory and practice. There is a classical construction of a family of $[2^m+1, 2u-1, 2^m-2u+3]$ MDS codes for $1 \leq u \leq 2^{m-1}$, which are cyclic, reversible and BCH…
