A class of permutation trinomials over finite fields

Xiang-dong Hou (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Let q > 2 be a prime power and f = - x + t x q + x 2 q - 1 , where t * q . We prove that f is a permutation polynomial of q ² if and only if one of the following occurs: (i) q is even and T r q / 2 ( 1 / t ) = 0 ; (ii) q ≡ 1 (mod 8) and t² = -2.

Doubly stochastic matrices and the Bruhat order

Richard A. Brualdi, Geir Dahl, Eliseu Fritscher (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

The Bruhat order is defined in terms of an interchange operation on the set of permutation matrices of order n which corresponds to the transposition of a pair of elements in a permutation. We introduce an extension of this partial order, which we call the stochastic Bruhat order, for the larger class Ω n of doubly stochastic matrices (convex hull of n × n permutation matrices). An alternative description of this partial order is given. We define a class of special faces of Ω n induced by permutation...

Brauer relations in finite groups

Alex Bartel, Tim Dokchitser (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

If G is a non-cyclic finite group, non-isomorphic G -sets X , Y may give rise to isomorphic permutation representations [ X ] [ Y ] . Equivalently, the map from the Burnside ring to the rational representation ring of G has a kernel. Its elements are called Brauer relations, and the purpose of this paper is to classify them in all finite groups, extending the Tornehave–Bouc classification in the case of p -groups.

Determination of a type of permutation trinomials over finite fields

Xiang-dong Hou (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

Let f = a x + b x q + x 2 q - 1 q [ x ] . We find explicit conditions on a and b that are necessary and sufficient for f to be a permutation polynomial of q ² . This result allows us to solve a related problem: Let g n , q p [ x ] (n ≥ 0, p = c h a r q ) be the polynomial defined by the functional equation c q ( x + c ) n = g n , q ( x q - x ) . We determine all n of the form n = q α - q β - 1 , α > β ≥ 0, for which g n , q is a permutation polynomial of q ² .

G-matrices, J -orthogonal matrices, and their sign patterns

Frank J. Hall, Miroslav Rozložník (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

A real matrix A is a G-matrix if A is nonsingular and there exist nonsingular diagonal matrices D 1 and D 2 such that A - T = D 1 A D 2 , where A - T denotes the transpose of the inverse of A . Denote by J = diag ( ± 1 ) a diagonal (signature) matrix, each of whose diagonal entries is + 1 or - 1 . A nonsingular real matrix Q is called J -orthogonal if Q T J Q = J . Many connections are established between these matrices. In particular, a matrix A is a G-matrix if and only if A is diagonally (with positive diagonals) equivalent to a column permutation...

Nested matrices and inverse M -matrices

Jeffrey L. Stuart (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Given a sequence of real or complex numbers, we construct a sequence of nested, symmetric matrices. We determine the L U - and Q R -factorizations, the determinant and the principal minors for such a matrix. When the sequence is real, positive and strictly increasing, the matrices are strictly positive, inverse M -matrices with symmetric, irreducible, tridiagonal inverses.

Minimal and minimum size latin bitrades of each genus

James Lefevre, Diane Donovan, Nicholas J. Cavenagh, Aleš Drápal (2007)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Suppose that T and T are partial latin squares of order n , with the property that each row and each column of T contains the same set of entries as the corresponding row or column of T . In addition, suppose that each cell in T contains an entry if and only if the corresponding cell in T contains an entry, and these entries (if they exist) are different. Then the pair T = ( T , T ) forms a . The of T is the total number of filled cells in T (equivalently T ). The latin bitrade is if there is no...

Symmetry classes of tensors associated with the semi-dihedral groups S D 8 n

Mahdi Hormozi, Kijti Rodtes (2013)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We discuss the existence of an orthogonal basis consisting of decomposable vectors for all symmetry classes of tensors associated with semi-dihedral groups S D 8 n . In particular, a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of such a basis associated with S D 8 n and degree two characters is given.

A computation of positive one-peak posets that are Tits-sincere

Marcin Gąsiorek, Daniel Simson (2012)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

A complete list of positive Tits-sincere one-peak posets is provided by applying combinatorial algorithms and computer calculations using Maple and Python. The problem whether any square integer matrix A ( ) is ℤ-congruent to its transpose A t r is also discussed. An affirmative answer is given for the incidence matrices C I and the Tits matrices C ̂ I of positive one-peak posets I.

Vandermonde nets

Roswitha Hofer, Harald Niederreiter (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

The second-named author recently suggested identifying the generating matrices of a digital (t,m,s)-net over the finite field q with an s × m matrix C over q m . More exactly, the entries of C are determined by interpreting the rows of the generating matrices as elements of q m . This paper introduces so-called Vandermonde nets, which correspond to Vandermonde-type matrices C, and discusses the quality parameter and the discrepancy of such nets. The methods that have been successfully used...
