Suppose that $A$ is a finite, nonempty subset of a cyclic group of either infinite or prime order. We show that if the difference set $A-A$ is ``not too large'', then there is a nonzero group element with at least as many as…

It is proven that there are infinitely prime pairs whose difference is no greater than 84. In proving that result, a new sieve weight is constructed. The new idea is to construct the largest sieve support which admits the use of the…

We investigate Cameron-Liebler sets of planes in the Klein quadric $Q^+(5,q)$ in PG$(5,q)$. We prove that there are many examples of such Cameron-Liebler sets of planes in the Klein quadric. More specifically, we provide an incomplete list…

In this paper, we study skew frame starters, which are strong frame starters that satisfy an additional "skew" property. We prove three new non-existence results for cyclic skew frame starters of certain types. We also construct several…

This report gives an overview of the history of finite projective planes and their properties before going on to outline the proof that no projective plane of order 10 exists. The report also investigates the search carried out by…

In this paper, we define two matrices named as "difference matrices", denoted by $D$ and $DD$ which significantly contribute to achieve regular single-edge QC-LDPC codes with the shortest length and the certain girth as well as regular and…

We show that there exists pairs of consecutive primes less than $x$ whose difference is larger than $t(1+o(1))(\log{x})(\log\log{x})(\log\log\log\log{x})(\log\log\log{x})^{-2}$ for any fixed $t$. Our proof works by incorporating recent…

We analyze the dynamics of a 4-parameter family of planar ordinary differential equations, given by a polynomial of degree 5 that is equivariant under a symmetry of order 6. We obtain the number of limit cycles as a function of the…

A set of $N$ permutations of $\{1,2,\dots,v\}$ is $(N,v,t)$-suitable if each symbol precedes each subset of $t-1$ others in at least one permutation. The central problems are to determine the smallest $N$ for which such a set exists for…

Let $g(k)$ be the maximum size of a planar set that determines at most $k$ distances. We prove $$\frac{\pi}{3\,C(\Lambda_{hex})}\ k\sqrt{\log k} (1+o(1)) \le g(k) \le C k\log k,$$ so $g(k) \asymp k\sqrt{\log k}$ with an explicit constant…

We begin the study of collections of three blocks which can occur in a symmetric configuration with block size 3, $v_3$. Formulae are derived for the number of occurrences of these and it is shown that the triangle, i.e. abf, ace, bcd is a…

In this paper, we introduce a weakening of the Freiman isomorphisms between subsets of non necessarily abelian groups. Inspired by the breakthrough result of Kravitz, [14], on cyclic groups, as a first application, we prove that any subset…

It is well-known that random attractors of a random dynamical system are generally not unique. It was shown in recent work by Hans Crauel and the author that if there exist more than one pullback or weak random attractor which attracts a…

Meanders form a set of combinatorial problems concerned with the enumeration of self-avoiding loops crossing a line through a given number of points, $n$. Meanders are considered distinct up to any smooth deformation leaving the line fixed.…

It has been conjectured by Sarkozy that with finitely many exceptions, the set of quadratic residues modulo a prime $p$ cannot be represented as a sumset $\{a+b\colon a\in A, b\in B\}$ with non-singleton sets $A,B\subset F_p$. The case…

We investigate the second smallest unresolved feasible set of parameters of strongly regular graphs, $(v,k,\lambda,\mu)=(85,14,3,2)$. Using the classification of cubic graphs of small degree, we restrict possible local structure of such a…

Cyclic codes are an interesting subclass of linear codes and have been used in consumer electronics, data transmission technologies, broadcast systems, and computer applications due to their efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. In…

In this paper, we are interested in providing lower estimations for the maximum number of limit cycles $H(n)$ that planar piecewise linear differential systems with two zones separated by the curve $y=x^n$ can have, where $n$ is a positive…

Complete sets of mutually unbiased bases are only known to exist in prime-power dimensions. We will describe a few approaches to the problem proving the (non)-existence of four mutually unbiased bases in dimension 6. These will include the…

Cyclic codes are an interesting type of linear codes and have wide applications in communication and storage systems due to their efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. Inspired by the recent work on binary cyclic codes published in…
