The 4-GDDs of type 3562

We determine the 22 isomorphism classes of 4-GDDs with group type $3^5{6}^2$ and compare their automorphism groups. We also observe for the first time an example of a three dimensional Pasch triangle in a GDD.     

Left dihedral codes over finite chain rings

Let R be a finite commutative chain ring, $D_{2n}$ be the dihedral group of size 2n and $R[D_{2n}]$ be the dihedral group ring. In this paper, we completely characterize left ideals of $R[D_{2n}]$ (called left $D_{2n}$-codes) when $\gcd (char(R),n)=1$. In this way, we explore the structure of some skew-cyclic codes of length 2 over R and also over $R\times S$, where S is an isomorphic copy of R. As a particular result, we give the structure of cyclic codes of length 2 over R. In the case where $R={\mathbb{F}}_{p^m}$ is a Galois field, we give a classification for left $D_{2N}$-codes over ${\mathbb{F}}_{p^m}$, for any positive integer N. In both cases we determine dual codes and identify self-dual ones.     

Automorphism groups of designs with λ=1

If $G$ is a finite group and $k=q>2$ or $k=q+1$ for a prime power $q$ then, for infinitely many integers $v$, there is a 2-$(v,k,1)$-design $\mathbf{D}$ for which $\mathrm{Aut}\mathbf{D}?G$.     

Inverse closed ultradifferential subalgebras

In previous work we have shown that classical approximation theory provides methods for the systematic construction of inverse-closed smooth subalgebras. Now we extend this work to treat inverse-closed subalgebras of ultradifferentiable elements. In particular, Carleman classes and Dales–Davie algebras are treated. As an application the result of Demko, Smith and Moss, and Jaffard on the inverse of a matrix with exponential decay is obtained within the framework of a general theory of smoothness.

Linear Fractional Transformation Methods in $ {\shadC}^n $

We consider the generalization of linear fractional transformations of the plane to $ {\shadC}^n $ . Analogs of the one-variable theory are developed including fixed point sets and points of symmetry. The domains in $ {\shadC}^n $ that are images of the ball under these transformations are found. Finally, we see some examples where classical fixed point results follow from this theory in a natural way.
