We deal with group divisible designs (GDDs) that have block size four and group type , where or 4 (mod 6). We show that the necessary conditions for the existence of a 4‐GDD of type are sufficient when = 14, 20, 22, 26, 28, 32, 34, 38, 40, 44, 46, 50, 52, 58, 62, 68, 76, 88, 92, 100, 104, 116, 124, 136, 152, 160, 176, 184, 200, 208, 224, 232, 248, 272, 304, 320, 368, 400, 448, 464 and 496. Using these results we go on to show that the necessary conditions are sufficient for , = 19, 23, 25, 29, 31, , , as well as for , = 2, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, , with possible exceptions , and for a few large values of . 相似文献

An ‐ary ‐radius sequence is a finite sequence of elements taken from an alphabet of size in which any two distinct elements occur within distance of each other somewhere in the sequence. The study of constructing short ‐radius sequences was motivated by some problems occurring in large data transfer. Let be the shortest length of any ‐ary ‐radius sequence. We show that the conjecture by Bondy et al is true for , and determine the exact values of for new infinitely many . Further, we investigate new sequences which we call ‐difference, as they are related to ‐radius sequences and seem to be interesting in themselves. Finally, we answer a question about the optimal length of packing and covering analogs of universal cycles proposed by D?bski et al. 相似文献

Due to the applications in network coding, subspace codes and designs have received many attentions. Suppose that and is an ‐dimensional space over the finite field . A ‐spread is a ‐set of ‐dimensional subspaces of such that each nonzero vector is contained in exactly one element of it. A partial ‐parallelism in is a set of pairwise disjoint ‐spreads. As the number of ‐dimensional subspaces in is , there are at most spreads in a partial ‐parallelism. By studying the independence numbers of Cayley graphs associated to a special type of partial ‐parallelisms in , we obtain new lower bounds for partial ‐parallelisms. In particular, we show that there exist at least pairwise disjoint ‐spreads in . 相似文献

Let be a fixed prime power and let denote a vector space of dimension over the Galois field with elements. A subspace partition (also called “vector space partition”) of is a collection of subspaces of with the property that every nonzero element of appears in exactly one of these subspaces. Given positive integers such that , we say a subspace partition of has type if it is composed of subspaces of dimension and subspaces of dimension . Let . In this paper, we prove that if divides , then one can (algebraically) construct every possible subspace partition of of type whenever , where and . Our construction allows us to sequentially reconfigure batches of subspaces of dimension into batches of subspaces of dimension . In particular, this accounts for all numerically allowed subspace partition types of under some additional conditions, for example, when . 相似文献

In this article, we mainly consider the existence problem of a group divisible design GDD of type . We present two recursive constructions for this configuration using candelabra systems and construct explicitly a few small examples admitting given automorphism groups. As an application, several new infinite classes of GDD s of type are produced. Meanwhile a few new infinite families on candelabra quadruple systems with group sizes being odd and stem size greater than one are also obtained. 相似文献

Hyperovals in projective planes turn out to have a link with t‐designs. Motivated by an unpublished work of Lonz and Vanstone, we present a construction for t‐designs and s‐resolvable t‐designs from hyperovals in projective planes of order . We prove that the construction works for . In particular, for the construction yields a family of 5‐ designs. For numerous infinite families of 4‐designs on points with block size can be constructed for any . The construction assumes the existence of a 4‐ design, called the indexing design, including the complete 4‐ design. Moreover, we prove that if the indexing design is s‐resolvable, then so is the constructed design. As a result, many of the constructed designs are s‐resolvable for . We include a short discussion on the simplicity or non‐simplicity of the designs from hyperovals. 相似文献

The ‐rank of a Steiner triple system (STS) is the dimension of the linear span of the set of characteristic vectors of blocks of , over GF . We derive a formula for the number of different STSs of order and given ‐rank , , and a formula for the number of STSs of order and given ‐rank , . Also, we prove that there are no STSs of ‐rank smaller than and, at the same time, ‐rank smaller than . Our results extend previous study on enumerating STSs according to the rank of their codes, mainly by Tonchev, V.A. Zinoviev, and D.V. Zinoviev for the binary case and by Jungnickel and Tonchev for the ternary case. 相似文献

An ‐arc in is a set of points such that each line contains at most of the selected points. It is well known that ‐arcs in correspond to projective linear codes. Let denote the maximal number of points for which an ‐arc in exists. In this paper we obtain improved lower bounds on by explicitly constructing ‐arcs. Some of the constructed ‐arcs correspond to linear codes meeting the Griesmer bound. All results are obtained by integer linear programming. 相似文献

In this paper we relate ‐designs to a forbidden configuration problem in extremal set theory. Let denote a column of 1's on top of 0's. Let denote the matrix consisting of rows of 1's and rows of 0's. We consider extremal problems for matrices avoiding certain submatrices. Let be a (0, 1)‐matrix forbidding any submatrix . Assume is ‐rowed and only columns of sum are allowed to be repeated. Assume that has the maximum number of columns subject to the given restrictions. Assume is sufficiently large. Then has each column of sum and exactly once and, given the appropriate divisibility condition, the columns of sum correspond to a ‐design with block size and parameter . The proof derives a basic upper bound on the number of columns of by a pigeonhole argument and then a careful argument, for large m, reduces the bound by a substantial amount down to the value given by design‐based constructions. We extend in a few directions. 相似文献

An ‐star is a complete bipartite graph . An ‐star system of order , is a partition of the edges of the complete graph into ‐stars. An ‐star system is said to be ‐colourable if its vertex set can be partitioned into sets (called colour classes) such that no ‐star is monochromatic. The system is ‐chromatic if is ‐colourable but is not ‐colourable. If every ‐colouring of an ‐star system can be obtained from some ‐colouring by a permutation of the colours, we say that the system is uniquely ‐colourable. In this paper, we first show that for any integer , there exists a ‐chromatic 3‐star system of order for all sufficiently large admissible . Next, we generalize this result for ‐star systems for any . We show that for all and , there exists a ‐chromatic ‐star system of order for all sufficiently large such that (mod ). Finally, we prove that for all and , there exists a uniquely ‐chromatic ‐star system of order for all sufficiently large such that (mod ). 相似文献

A covering array of strength is an array of symbols from an alphabet of size such that in every subarray, every ‐tuple occurs in at least one row. A covering array is optimal if it has the smallest possible for given , , and , and uniform if every symbol occurs or times in every column. Before this paper, the only known optimal covering arrays for were orthogonal arrays, covering arrays with constructed from Sperner's Theorem and the Erd?s‐Ko‐Rado Theorem, and 11 other parameter sets with and . In all these cases, there is a uniform covering array with the optimal size. It has been conjectured that there exists a uniform covering array of optimal size for all parameters. In this paper, a new lower bound as well as structural constraints for small uniform strength‐2 covering arrays is given. Moreover, covering arrays with small parameters are studied computationally. The size of an optimal strength‐2 covering array with and is now known for 21 parameter sets. Our constructive results continue to support the conjecture. 相似文献

Group divisible designs (GDDs) with block size 4 and at most 30 points are known for all feasible group types except three, namely , and . In this paper we provide solutions for the first two of these three 4‐GDDs without assuming any automorphisms. We also construct several other 4‐GDDs. These include classes of 4‐GDDs of types for where and solutions for 4‐GDDs of types for a wide range of values of satisfying or , including all cases with . Most of the remaining unknown 4‐GDDs of type have . 相似文献

For any , the ‐planar crossing number of , is defined as the minimum of over all graphs with . Pach et al [Comput.

We improve the upper bound to as . For the class of bipartite graphs, we show that the best constant is exactly for every .

By Raaphorst et al, for a prime power , covering arrays (CAs) with strength 3 and index 1, defined over the alphabet , were constructed using the output of linear feedback shift registers defined by cubic primitive polynomials in . These arrays have rows and columns. We generalize this construction to apply to all polynomials; provide a new proof that CAs are indeed produced; and analyze the parameters of the generated arrays. Besides arrays that match the parameters of those of Raaphorst et al, we obtain arrays matching some constructions that use Chateauneuf‐Kreher doubling; in both cases these are some of the best arrays currently known for certain parameters. 相似文献
