We say that collection of $n$-qudit gates is universal if there exists $N_0\geq n$ such that for every $N\geq N_0$ every $N$-qudit unitary operation can be approximated with arbitrary precision by a circuit built from gates of the…

We investigate $k$-nets with $k\geq 4$ embedded in the projective plane $PG(2,\mathbb{K})$ defined over a field $\mathbb{K}$; they are line configurations in $PG(2,\mathbb{K})$ consisting of $k$ pairwise disjoint line-sets, called…

Lower and upper bounds on the size of a covering of subspaces in the Grassmann graph $\cG_q(n,r)$ by subspaces from the Grassmann graph $\cG_q(n,k)$, $k \geq r$, are discussed. The problem is of interest from four points of view: coding…

In this article we consider a set C of points in PG(4,q), q even, satisfying certain combinatorial properties with respect to the planes of PG(4,q). We show that there is a regular spread in the hyperplane at infinity, such that in the…

In this article, for generalized projective spaces with any weights, we prove four main theorems in three different contexts where the Unital Set Condition USC (Definition $2.8$) on ideals is further examined. In the first context we prove,…

Let $Q$ be a finite set of points in the plane. For any set $P$ of points in the plane, $S_{Q}(P)$ denotes the number of similar copies of $Q$ contained in $P$. For a fixed $n$, Erd\H{o}s and Purdy asked to determine the maximum possible…

In the space of marked group, we determine the structure of groups which are limit points of the set of all generalized quaternion groups.

Let $\mathcal{Q}_1$ and $\mathcal{Q}_2$ be two arbitrary quadrics with no common hyperplane in ${\mathbb{P}}^n(\mathbb{F}_q)$. We give the best upper bound for the number of points in the intersection of these two quadrics. Our result…

There are two known families of maximum scattered $\mathbb{F}_q$-linear sets in $PG(1,q^t)$: the linear sets of pseudoregulus type and for $t\geq 4$ the scattered linear sets found by Lunardon and Polverino. For $t=4$ we show that these are…

In this work, we prove the existence of maximal partial line spreads in PG(5,q) of size q^3+q^2+kq+1, with 1 \leq k \leq (q^3-q^2)/(q+1), k an integer. Moreover, by a computer search, we do this for larger values of k, for q \leq 7. Again…

Let $q$ be a fixed odd prime. We show that a finite subset $B$ of integers, not containing any perfect $q^{th}$ power, contains a $q^{th}$ power modulo almost every prime if and only if $B$ corresponds to a blocking set (with respect to…

We obtain new lower and upper bounds for the maximum multiplicity of some weighted and, respectively, non-weighted common geometric graphs drawn on n points in the plane in general position (with no three points collinear): perfect…

Blocking semiovals and the determination of their (minimum) sizes constitute one of the central research topics in finite projective geometry. In this article we introduce the concept of blocking set with the $r_\infty$-property in a finite…

We give uniform upper bounds for the number of rational points of height at most $B$ on non-singular complete intersections of two quadrics in $\mathbb{P}^3$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. To do this, we combine determinant methods with descent…

Cameron and Erd\H{o}s asked whether the number of \emph{maximal} sum-free sets in $\{1, \dots , n\}$ is much smaller than the number of sum-free sets. In the same paper they gave a lower bound of $2^{\lfloor n/4 \rfloor }$ for the number of…

We study moduli of ``self-associated'' sets of points in ${\bf P}^n$ for small $n$. In particular, we show that for $n=5$ a general such set arises as a hyperplane section of the Lagrangean Grassmanian $LG(5,10) \subset {\bf P}^{15}$ (this…

The paper considers the problem of finding the largest possible set P(n), a subset of the set N of the natural numbers, with the property that a number is in P(n) if and only if it is a sum of n distinct naturals all in P(n) or none in…

Minimal linear codes are in one-to-one correspondence with special types of blocking sets of projective spaces over a finite field, which are called strong or cutting blocking sets. In this paper we prove an upper bound on the minimal…

The metric dimension of a graph $G$ is defined as the minimum number of vertices in a subset $S\subset V(G)$ such that all other vertices are uniquely determined by their distances to the vertices in $S$, and is denoted by $\dim(G)$. In…

A dominating set of a graph $G$ is a subset $S$ of its vertices such that each vertex of $G$ not in $S$ has a neighbor in $S$. A face-hitting set of a plane graph $G$ is a set $T$ of vertices in $G$ such that every face of $G$ contains at…
