Quadratic algebras are generalizations of Lie algebras; they include the symmetry algebras of 2nd order superintegrable systems in 2 dimensions as special cases. The superintegrable systems are exactly solvable physical systems in classical…

We establish the existence of simple designs with parameters $2$-$(55,10,4)$, $3$-$(20,5,4)$, $3$-$(21,7,30)$, $4$-$(15,5,2)$, $4$-$(16,8,45)$, $5$-$(16,7,10)$, and $5$-$(17,8,40)$, which have previously been unknown. For the corresponding…

One of the earliest results in enumerative combinatorial geometry is the following theorem of de Bruijn and Erd\H{o}s: Every set of points $E$ in a projective plane determines at least $|E|$ lines, unless all the points are contained in a…

A residual design ${\cal{D}}_B$ with respect to a block $B$ of a given design $\cal{D}$ is defined to be linearly embeddable over $GF(p)$ if the $p$-ranks of the incidence matrices of ${\cal{D}}_B$ and $\cal{D}$ differ by one. A sufficient…

We consider composition and division algebras over the real numbers: We note two r\^oles for the group $G_{2}$: as automorphism group of the octonions and as the isotropy group of a generic 3-form in 7 dimensions. We show why they are…

We give a classification and complete algebraic description of groups allowing only finitely many (left multiplication invariant) circular orders. In particular, they are all solvable groups with a specific semi-direct product…

Let $F_q$ be a field with $q$ elements, where $q$ is a power of a prime number $p\geq 5$. For any integer $m\geq 2$ and $a\in F_q^*$ such that the polynomial $x^m-a$ is irreducible in $F_q[x]$, we combine two different methods to construct…

B. Xu characterized rank $4$ self-dual association schemes inducing three partial geometric designs by their character tables. We construct such association schemes as Schur rings over abelian $2$-groups.

A Ryser design $\mathcal{D}$ on $v$ points is a collection of $v$ proper subsets (called blocks) of a point-set with $v$ points such that every two blocks intersect each other in $\lambda$ points (and $\lambda < v$ is a fixed number) and…

Given a prime $p$, we construct a permutation group containing at least $p^{p-2}$ non-conjugated regular elementary abelian subgroups of order $p^3$. This gives the first example of a permutation group with exponentially many non-conjugated…

We give a general description of the structure of a discrete double groupoid (with an extra, quite natural, filling condition) in terms of groupoid factorizations and groupoid 2-cocycles with coefficients in abelian group bundles. Our…

This work is devoted to study new bialgebra structures related to 2-associative algebras. A 2-associative algebra is a vector space equipped with two associative multiplications. We discuss the notions of 2-associative bialgebras,…

We revisit the results on admissible transformations between normal linear systems of second-order ordinary differential equations with an arbitrary number of dependent variables under several appropriate gauges of the arbitrary elements…

Almost block diagonal linear systems of equations can be exemplified by two modules. This makes it possible to construct all sequential forms of band and/or block elimination methods, six old and fourteen new. It allows easy assessment of…

A kind of self-dual quasi-abelian codes of index $2$ over any finite field $F$ is introduced. By counting the number of such codes and the number of the codes of this kind whose relative minimum weights are small, such codes are proved to…

The simple permutations in two permutation classes --- the 321-avoiding permutations and the skew-merged permutations --- are enumerated using a uniform method. In both cases, these enumerations were known implicitly, by working backwards…

All exactly integrable systems connected with the semisimple algebras of the second rank with an arbitrary choice of the grading in them are presented in explicit form. General solution of such systems are expressed in terms of the matrix…

In this paper, we consider a set of similar triangles with parallel sides, along with a set of points in the plane. It turns out that the set $\mathbb{R}_2= \{\pm <x >=\pm (x^2,x,1); x\in\mathbb{R} \}$ describes this set of triangles quite…

The goal of this thesis is to define a 2-dimensional version of abelian categories, where symmetric 2-groups play the role that abelian groups played in 1-dimensional algebra. Abelian and 2-abelian groupoid enriched categories are defined…

Given a hyperbolic quadric of PG(5,2), there are 28 points off this quadric and 56 lines skew to it. It is shown that the $(28_6, 56_3)$-configuration formed by these points and lines is isomorphic to the combinatorial Grassmannian of type…
