Some Additive 2 - ( v , 5 , λ ) Designs

Andrea Caggegi (2015)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

Similarity:

Given a finite additive abelian group G and an integer k , with 3 k | G | , denote by 𝒟 k ( G ) the simple incidence structure whose point-set is G and whose blocks are the k -subsets C = { c 1 , c 2 , , c k } of G such that c 1 + c 2 + + c k = 0 . It is known (see [Caggegi, A., Di Bartolo, A., Falcone, G.: Boolean 2-designs and the embedding of a 2-design in a group arxiv 0806.3433v2, (2008), 1–8.]) that 𝒟 k ( G ) is a 2-design, if G is an elementary abelian p -group with p a prime divisor of k .

Construction of Mendelsohn designs by using quasigroups of ( 2 , q ) -varieties

Lidija Goračinova-Ilieva, Smile Markovski (2016)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Let q be a positive integer. An algebra is said to have the property ( 2 , q ) if all of its subalgebras generated by two distinct elements have exactly q elements. A variety 𝒱 of algebras is a variety with the property ( 2 , q ) if every member of 𝒱 has the property ( 2 , q ) . Such varieties exist only in the case of q prime power. By taking the universes of the subalgebras of any finite algebra of a variety with the property ( 2 , q ) , 2 < q , blocks of Steiner system of type ( 2 , q ) are obtained. The stated correspondence...

Uniqueness of Cartesian Products of Compact Convex Sets

Zbigniew Lipecki, Viktor Losert, Jiří Spurný (2011)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

Let X i , i∈ I, and Y j , j∈ J, be compact convex sets whose sets of extreme points are affinely independent and let φ be an affine homeomorphism of i I X i onto j J Y j . We show that there exists a bijection b: I → J such that φ is the product of affine homeomorphisms of X i onto Y b ( i ) , i∈ I.

On strongly affine extensions of commutative rings

Nabil Zeidi (2020)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

A ring extension R S is said to be strongly affine if each R -subalgebra of S is a finite-type R -algebra. In this paper, several characterizations of strongly affine extensions are given. For instance, we establish that if R is a quasi-local ring of finite dimension, then R S is integrally closed and strongly affine if and only if R S is a Prüfer extension (i.e. ( R , S ) is a normal pair). As a consequence, the equivalence of strongly affine extensions, quasi-Prüfer extensions and INC-pairs is shown....

Multidimensional self-affine sets: non-empty interior and the set of uniqueness

Kevin G. Hare, Nikita Sidorov (2015)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let M be a d × d real contracting matrix. We consider the self-affine iterated function system Mv-u, Mv+u, where u is a cyclic vector. Our main result is as follows: if | d e t M | 2 - 1 / d , then the attractor A M has non-empty interior. We also consider the set M of points in A M which have a unique address. We show that unless M belongs to a very special (non-generic) class, the Hausdorff dimension of M is positive. For this special class the full description of M is given as well. This paper continues our...

Leaps: an approach to the block structure of a graph

Henry Martyn Mulder, Ladislav Nebeský (2006)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

To study the block structure of a connected graph G = (V,E), we introduce two algebraic approaches that reflect this structure: a binary operation + called a leap operation and a ternary relation L called a leap system, both on a finite, nonempty set V. These algebraic structures are easily studied by considering their underlying graphs, which turn out to be block graphs. Conversely, we define the operation + G as well as the set of leaps L G of the connected graph G. The underlying graph...

Finite projective planes, Fermat curves, and Gaussian periods

Koen Thas, Don Zagier (2008)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

One of the oldest and most fundamental problems in the theory of finite projective planes is to classify those having a group which acts transitively on the incident point-line pairs (flags). The conjecture is that the only ones are the Desarguesian projective planes (over a finite field). In this paper, we show that non-Desarguesian finite flag-transitive projective planes exist if and only if certain Fermat surfaces have no nontrivial rational points, and formulate several other equivalences...

On the Hausdorff dimension of certain self-affine sets

Abercrombie Alex G.., Nair R. (2002)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

A subset E of ℝⁿ is called self-affine with respect to a collection ϕ₁,...,ϕₜ of affinities if E is the union of the sets ϕ₁(E),...,ϕₜ(E). For S ⊂ ℝⁿ let Φ ( S ) = 1 j t ϕ j ( S ) . If Φ(S) ⊂ S let E Φ ( S ) denote k 0 Φ k ( S ) . For given Φ consisting of contracting “pseudo-dilations” (affinities which preserve the directions of the coordinate axes) and subject to further mild technical restrictions we show that there exist self-affine sets E Φ ( S ) of each Hausdorff dimension between zero and a positive number depending on Φ. We also...

Distortion and spreading models in modified mixed Tsirelson spaces

S. A. Argyros, I. Deliyanni, A. Manoussakis (2003)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

The results of the first part concern the existence of higher order ℓ₁ spreading models in asymptotic ℓ₁ Banach spaces. We sketch the proof of the fact that the mixed Tsirelson space T[(ₙ,θₙ)ₙ], θ n + m θ θ and l i m n θ 1 / n = 1 , admits an ω spreading model in every block subspace. We also prove that if X is a Banach space with a basis, with the property that there exists a sequence (θₙ)ₙ ⊂ (0,1) with l i m n θ 1 / n = 1 , such that, for every n ∈ ℕ, | | k = 1 m x k | | θ k = 1 m | | x k | | for every ₙ-admissible block sequence ( x k ) k = 1 m of vectors in X, then there exists c...

A treatment of a determinant inequality of Fiedler and Markham

Minghua Lin (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Fiedler and Markham (1994) proved det H ^ k k det H , where H = ( H i j ) i , j = 1 n is a positive semidefinite matrix partitioned into n × n blocks with each block k × k and H ^ = ( tr H i j ) i , j = 1 n . We revisit this inequality mainly using some terminology from quantum information theory. Analogous results are included. For example, under the same condition, we prove det ( I n + H ^ ) det ( I n k + k H ) 1 / k .
