Optimal Subcodes of Second Order Reed-Muller Codes andMaximal Linear Spaces of Bivectors of Maximal Rank

There are exactlytwo non-equivalent [32,11,12]-codes in the binaryReed-Muller code which contain and have the weight set {0,12,16,20,32}. Alternatively,the 4-spaces in the projective space over the vector space for which all points have rank 4 fall into exactlytwo orbits under the natural action of PGL(5) on .     

Hyperplane Sections of Kantor's Unitary Ovoids

The projective plane is embedded as a variety of projective points in , where M is a nine dimensional -module for the groupG=GL(3,q ²). The hyperplane sections of thisvariety and their stabilizers in the group G aredetermined. When q 2 (mod 3) one such hyperplanesection is a member of the family of Kantor's unitary ovoids.We furtherdetermine all sections whereD has codimension two in M and demonstratethat these are never empty. Consequences are drawn for Kantor'sovoids.     

Minihypers and Linear Codes Meeting the Griesmer Bound: Improvements to Results of Hamada, Helleseth and Maekawa

This article improves results of Hamada, Helleseth and Maekawa on minihypers in projective spaces and linear codes meeting the Griesmer bound.In [10,12],it was shown that any -minihyper, with , where , is the disjoint union of points, lines,..., -dimensional subspaces. For q large, we improve on this result by increasing the upper bound on non-square, to non-square, square, , and (4) for square, p prime, p<3, to . In the case q non-square, the conclusion is the same as written above; the minihyper is the disjoint union of subspaces. When q is square however, the minihyper is either the disjoint union of subspaces, or the disjoint union of subspaces and one subgeometry . For the coding-theoretical problem, our results classify the corresponding codes meeting the Griesmer bound.     

True Dimension of Some Binary Quadratic Trace Goppa Codes

We compute in this paper the true dimension over of Goppa Codes (L, g) defined by the polynomial proving, this way, a conjecture stated in [14,16].     

On posets with isomorphic interval posets

Let be a partially ordered set, Int the system of all (nonempty) intervals of partially ordered by the set-theoretical inclusion . We are interested in partially ordered sets with Int isomorphic to Int . We are going to show that they correspond to couples of binary relations on A satisfying some conditions. If is a directed partially ordered set, the only with Int isomorphic to Int are corresponding to direct decompositions of ( denotes the dual of . The present results include those presented in the paper [11] by V. Slavík. Systems of intervals, particularly of lattices, have been investigated by many authors, cf. [1]–[11].     

A Constructive Proof of the Generalized Gelfand Isomorphism

Using an analog of the classical Frobenius recursion, we define the notion of a Frobenius -homomorphism. For , this is an ordinary ring homomorphism. We give a constructive proof of the following theorem. Let X be a compact Hausdorff space, the th symmetric power of X, and the algebra of continuous complex-valued functions on X with the sup-norm; then the evaluation map defined by the formula identifies the space with the space of all Frobenius -homomorphisms of the algebra into with the weak topology.     

Tissus linéaires et théorèmes d'algébrisation de type Abdel-inverse et Reiss-inverse

A d-web in ( ,0) is given by d complex analytic foliations of codimension one in ( ,0) which are in general position. A d-web in ( ,0) is linear if all the leaves are (pieces of) hyperplanes in and is algebraic if it is associated, by duality, to a nondegenerate algebraic curve in of degree d. We characterize linear webs in ( ,0). We give explicit conditions under which a linear d-web in ( ,0) is algebraic and we obtain equations for in this case. Some related problems are discussed and some questions are posed.     

On Complete Arcs Arising from Plane Curves

We point out an interplay between -Frobenius non-classical plane curves and complete -arcs in . A typical example that shows how this works is the one concerning an Hermitian curve. We present some other examples here which give rise to the existence of new complete -arcs with parameters and being a power of the characteristic. In addition, for q a square, new complete -arcs with either and or and are constructed by using certain reducible plane curves.     

Bernstein-Type Theorems and Uniqueness Theorems

Let be an entire function of finite type with respect to finite order and let be a subset of an open cone in a certain n-dimensional subspace (the smaller , the sparser ). We assume that this cone contains a ray 0} \right\}$$ " align="middle" border="0"> . It is shown that the radial indicator of at any point may be evaluated in terms of function values at points of the discrete subset . Moreover, if tends to zero fast enough as over , then this function vanishes identically. To prove these results, a special approximation technique is developed. In the last part of the paper, it is proved that, under certain conditions on and , which are close to exact conditions, the function bounded on is bounded on the ray.     

Multiplicative Difference Sets via Additive Characters

We use Fourier analysis on the additive group of to give an alternative proof of the recent theorem of Maschietti and to prove recent conjectures of No, Chung and Yun and No, Golomb, Gong, Lee and Gaal on difference sets in the multiplicative group of , m odd. Along the ay e prove a stronger form of a celebrated theorem of Welch on the 3-valued cross-correlation of maximal length sequences.
