In this article, we study extreme values of quadratic character sums with multiplicative coefficients $\sum_{n \le N}f(n)\chi_d(n)$. For a positive number $N$ within a suitable range, we employ the resonance method to establish a…

For $e$ a positive integer, we find restrictions modulo $2^e$ on the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial $\chi_S(x)$ of a Seidel matrix $S$. We show that, for a Seidel matrix of order $n$ even (resp. odd), there are at most…

We compute the second and third levels of the Lasserre hierarchy for the spherical finite distance problem. A connection is used between invariants in representations of the orthogonal group and representations of the general linear group,…

Large sets of equiangular lines are constructed from sets of mutually unbiased bases, over both the complex and the real numbers.

We develop the theory of equiangular lines in Euclidean spaces. Our focus is on the question of when a Seidel matrix having precisely three distinct eigenvalues has a regular graph in its switching class. We make some progress towards an…

We present a formula for the number of line segments connecting q+1 points of an n_1 x...x n_k rectangular grid. As corollaries, we obtain formulas for the number of lines through at least q points and, respectively, through exactly q…

We show that the maximum cardinality of an equiangular line system in $\mathbb R^{18}$ is at most $59$. Our proof includes a novel application of the Jacobi identity for complementary subgraphs. In particular, we show that there does not…

For an angle $\alpha\in (0,\pi)$, we consider plane graphs and multigraphs in which the edges are either (i) one-bend polylines with an angle $\alpha$ between the two edge segments, or (ii) circular arcs of central angle $2(\pi-\alpha)$. We…

An $L$-spherical code is a set of Euclidean unit vectors whose pairwise inner products belong to the set $L$. We show, for a fixed $\alpha,\beta>0$, that the size of any $[-1,-\beta]\cup\{\alpha\}$-spherical code is at most linear in the…

New bounds on the number of similar or directly similar copies of a pattern within a finite subset of the line or the plane are proved. The number of equilateral triangles whose vertices all lie within an $n$-point subset of the plane is…

An $n$-correct set $\mathcal{X}$ in the plane is a set of nodes admitting unique interpolation with bivariate polynomials of total degree at most $n$. A $k$-node line is a line passing through exactly $k$ nodes of $\mathcal{X}.$ A line can…

The existence of a uniform upper bound for the maximum number of limit cycles of planar piecewise linear differential systems with two zones separated by a straight line has been subject of interest of hundreds of papers. After more than 30…

The no-(k+1)-in line problem seeks the maximum number of points that can be selected from an $n \times n$ square lattice such that no $k+1$ of them are collinear. The problem was first posed more than $100$ years ago for the special case…

The classical No-Three-In-Line problem seeks the maximum number of points that may be selected from an $n\times n$ grid while avoiding a collinear triple. The maximum is well known to be linear in $n$. Following a question of Erde, we seek…

We give some new advances in the research of the maximum number of triangles that we may obtain in a simple arrangements of n lines or pseudo-lines.

In an undirected graph, the odd cycle packing number is the maximum number of pairwise vertex-disjoint odd cycles. The odd cycle transversal number is the minimum number of vertices that hit every odd cycle. The maximum ratio between…

We consider real and complex equiangular lines, generated by unit vectors. We show that, for an arbitrary dimension $d$, if there exists a set of $d^2$ equiangular unit vectors in $\mathbb{C}^d$, then there must exist a set of $d^2$…

Choose $N$ unoriented lines through the origin of ${\bf R}^{d+1}$. The sum of the angles between these lines is conjectured to be maximized if the lines are distributed as evenly as possible amongst the coordinate axes of some orthonormal…

We have found maximum possible runs of consecutive positive integers each having exactly $k$ divisors for some fixed values of $k$. In addition, we exhibit the run of 10 consecutive positive integers each having exactly 12 divisors and two…

This paper deals more generally with @-numbers defined as follows: Call `\textit{alpha number}' of order $(\underline{\alpha},\bar{\alpha})\in\mathbb{H}^2$, (denote its family by @$_{(\underline{\alpha},\bar{\alpha})\in\mathbb{H}^2;…
