This paper develops an explicit and implementable framework for constructing spherical designs by lifting point sets from tight fusion frames. By combining existing ingredients, we obtain, in every dimension, explicit spherical $5$-designs…
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…
Spherical t-designs are Chebyshev-type averaging sets on the d-sphere S^d which are exact for polynomials of degree at most t. This concept was introduced in 1977 by Delsarte, Goethals, and Seidel, who also found the minimum possible size…
The paper deals with recursive constructions for simple 3-designs based on other 3-designs having $(1, \sigma)$-resolution. The concept of $(1, \sigma)$-resolution may be viewed as a generalization of the parallelism for designs. We show…
This work presents a recursive construction for simple $t$-designs using resolutions of the ingredient designs. The result extends a construction of $t$-designs in our recent paper [39]. Essentially, the method in [39] describes the blocks…
Inspired by protein folding, we explored the construction of three-dimensional structures and machines from one-dimensional chains of simple building blocks. This approach not only allows us to recreate the self-replication mechanism…
In 1963, Shrikhande and Raghavarao published a recursive construction for designs that starts with a resolvable design (the "master design") and then uses a second design (the "indexing design") to take certain unions of blocks in each…
We define a triangle design as a partition of the set of lines of a projective space into triangles, where a triangle consists of three pairwise intersecting lines with no common point. A triangle design is balanced if all points are…
Almost designs ($t$-adesigns) were proposed and discussed by Ding as a certain generalization of combinatorial designs related to almost difference sets. Unlike $t$-designs, it is not clear whether $t$-adesigns need also be $(t-1)$-designs…
We provide a method to construct $t$-designs from weighing matrices and association schemes. One instance of our method can produce a $3$-design from any (symmetric or skew-symmetric) conference matrix, thereby providing a partial answer to…
The aim of this paper is to present a recursive construction of simple t-designs for arbitrary t. The construction is of purely combinatorial nature and it requires finding solutions for the indices of the ingredient designs that satisfy a…
Unitary designs are essential tools in several quantum information protocols. Similarly to other design concepts, unitary designs are mainly used to facilitate averaging over a relevant space, in this case, the unitary group…
A $3$-$(v,\{4,6\},1)$ design is a configuration of $v$ points and a collection of $4$- and $6$-element subsets called blocks, that jointly contain every 3-element subset exactly once. Using an exhaustive computer search on $v\leq 28$ points…
In areas as diverse as contemporary art, play structures, climbing equipment, and modular construction toys, we see the presence of building block-like polyhedral complexes, which are generalizations of the pieces in the game Tetris. We…
Let $n=2^k-1$ and $m=2^{k-2}$ for a certain $k\ge 3$. Consider the point-line geometry of $2m$-element subsets of an $n$-element set. Maximal singular subspaces of this geometry correspond to binary simplex codes of dimension $k$. For $k\ge…
We present a new construction of triple arrays by combining a symmetric 2-design with a resolution of another 2-design. This is the first general method capable of producing non-extremal triple arrays. We call the triple arrays which can be…
Generalized $t$-designs, which form a common generalization of objects such as $t$-designs, resolvable designs and orthogonal arrays, were defined by Cameron [P.J. Cameron, A generalisation of $t$-designs, \emph{Discrete Math.}\ {\bf 309}…
Methods were developed in Ref. [1] for constructing reference metrics (and from them differentiable structures) on three-dimensional manifolds with topologies specified by suitable triangulations. This note generalizes those methods by…
This paper classifies spherical objects in various geometric settings in dimensions two and three, including both minimal and partial crepant resolutions of Kleinian singularities, as well as arbitrary flopping 3-fold contractions with only…
We define symmetric designs of dimension $n$ and propriety $d$, providing a unifying generalization of several classes of higher-dimensional symmetric designs previously studied. We focus on the case $n=d=3$, which leads to the following…
