Analysis on the minimal representation of O(p,q): III. Ultrahyperbolic equations on

For the group O(p,q) we give a new construction of its minimal unitary representation via Euclidean Fourier analysis. This is an extension of the q=2 case, where the representation is the mass zero, spin zero representation realized in a Hilbert space of solutions to the wave equation. The group O(p,q) acts as the Möbius group of conformal transformations on , and preserves a space of solutions of the ultrahyperbolic Laplace equation on . We construct in an intrinsic and natural way a Hilbert space of solutions so that O(p,q) becomes a continuous irreducible unitary representation in this Hilbert space. We also prove that this representation is unitarily equivalent to the representation on L²(C), where C is the conical subvariety of the nilradical of a maximal parabolic subalgebra obtained by intersecting with the minimal nilpotent orbit in the Lie algebra of O(p,q).     

Analysis on the minimal representation of O(p,q) I. Realization via conformal geometry

This is the first in a series of papers devoted to an analogue of the metaplectic representation, namely the minimal unitary representation of an indefinite orthogonal group; this representation corresponds to the minimal nilpotent coadjoint orbit in the philosophy of Kirillov–Kostant. We begin by applying methods from conformal geometry of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds to a general construction of an infinite-dimensional representation of the conformal group on the solution space of the Yamabe equation. By functoriality of the constructions, we obtain different models of the unitary representation, as well as giving new proofs of unitarity and irreducibility. The results in this paper play a basic role in the subsequent papers, where we give explicit branching formulae, and prove unitarization in the various models.     

On irreducible p,q-representations of gl(2)

The theory of irreducible p,q-representations of the complex Lie algebra gl(2) is developed. We construct a one variable model of irreducible p,q-representations of gl(2) in terms of p,q-derivative operator, and derive a generating function based on it.     

On the distribution of points in orbits of PGL(2,q) acting on GF(q)

We prove results on the distribution of points in an orbit of PGL(2,q) acting on an element of GF(qⁿ). These results support a conjecture of Klapper. More precisely, we show that the points in an orbit are uniformly distributed if n is small with respect to q.     

Hopf *-algebra structures on H(1, q)

We study the Hopf *-algebra structures on the Hopf algebra H(1, q) over ?. It is shown that H(1, q) is a Hopf *-algebra if and only if |q| = 1 or q is a real number. Then the Hopf *-algebra structures on H(1, q) are classified up to the equivalence of Hopf *-algebra structures.

Mixed partitions of PG(3,q)

A mixed partition of PG(2n−1,q²) is a partition of the points of PG(2n−1,q²) into (n−1)-spaces and Baer subspaces of dimension 2n−1. In (Bruck and Bose, J. Algebra 1 (1964) 85) it is shown that such a mixed partition of PG(2n−1,q²) can be used to construct a (2n−1)-spread of PG(4n−1,q) and hence a translation plane of order q²ⁿ. In this paper, we provide several new examples of such mixed partitions in the case when n=2.     

On the k-error linear complexity of sequences with period 2pn over GF(q)

In this paper, we first optimize the structure of the Wei–Xiao–Chen algorithm for the linear complexity of sequences over GF(q) with period N =  2p ⁿ , where p and q are odd primes, and q is a primitive root modulo p ². The second, an union cost is proposed, so that an efficient algorithm for computing the k-error linear complexity of a sequence with period 2p ⁿ over GF(q) is derived, where p and q are odd primes, and q is a primitive root modulo p ². The third, we give a validity of the proposed algorithm, and also prove that there exists an error sequence e ^N , where the Hamming weight of e ^N is not greater than k, such that the linear complexity of (s + e) ^N reaches the k-error linear complexity c. We also present a numerical example to illustrate the algorithm. Finally, we present the minimum value k for which the k-error linear complexity is strictly less than the linear complexity.     

Quasi-permutation Representations of the Groups SU (3, q2) and PSU (3, q2)

A square matrix over the complex field with non-negative integral trace is called a quasi-permutation matrix. For a finite group G the minimal degree of a faithful permutation representation of G is denoted by p(G). The minimal degree of a faithful representation of G by quasi-permutation matrices over the rational and the complex numbers are denoted by q(G) and c(G) respectively. Finally r(G) denotes the minimal degree of a faithful rational valued complex character of G. In this paper p(G), q(G), c(G) and r(G) are calculated for the groups PSU (3, q²) and SU (3, q²).AMS Subject Classification (2000): 20C15     

Integral Formulas for the Minimal Representation of O(p,2)

The minimal representation of O(p,q) (p+q: even) is realized on the Hilbert space of square integrable functions on the conical subvariety of R^p+q–2. This model presents a close resemblance of the Schrödinger model of the Segal–Shale–Weil representation of the metaplectic group. We shall give explicit integral formulas for the inversion together with the analytic continuation to a certain semigroup of O(p+2,C) of the minimal representation of O(p,2) by using Bessel functions.Mathematics Subject Classifications (2000) primary 22E30; secondary 22E46, 20M20, 43A80.

Constructions of (q, K, λ, t, Q) almost difference families

The concept of a (q, k, λ, t) almost difference family (ADF) has been introduced and studied by C. Ding and J. Yin as a useful generalization of the concept of an almost difference set. In this paper, we consider, more generally, (q, K, λ, t, Q)-ADFs, where K = {k₁, k₂, ..., k_r} is a set of positive integers and Q = (q₁, q₂,..., q_r) is a given block-size distribution sequence. A necessary condition for the existence of a (q, K, λ, t, Q)-ADF is given, and several infinite classes of (q, K, λ, t, Q)-ADFs are constructed.

A note on cyclic codes over GR(p2, m) of length pk

The number of self-dual cyclic codes of length p ^k over GR(p ², m) is determined by the nullity of a certain matrix M(p ^k , i ₁). With the aid of Genocchi numbers, we determine the nullity of M(p ^k , i ₁) and hence determine completely the number of such codes.
