Abstract

top
A trilinear alternating form on dimension n can be defined based on a Steiner triple system of order n . We prove some basic properties of these forms and using the radical polynomial we show that for dimensions up to 15 nonisomorphic Steiner triple systems provide nonequivalent forms over G F ( 2 ) . Finally, we prove that Steiner triple systems of order n with different number of subsystems of order ( n - 1 ) / 2 yield nonequivalent forms over G F ( 2 ) .
