On the dimensions of the binary codes of a class of unitals

چکیده
Let Uβ be the special Buekenhout-Metz unital in PG(2, q 2) formed by a union of q conics, where q = pe is an odd prime power. It can be shown that the dimension of the binary code of the corresponding unital design Uβ is less than or equal to q3 + 1− q. Baker and Wantz conjectured that equality holds. We prove that the aforementioned dimension is greater than or equal to q3(1− 1 p ) + q 2 p .

Unitals and codes
A program is outlined for the enumeration of unital 2-(28,4,1) designs that uses tactical decompositions de1ned by vectors of certain weight in the dual binary code of a design. A class of designs with a spread that covers a codeword of weight 12 is studied in detail. A total of 909 nonisomorphic designs are constructed that include the classical hermitian and Ree unitals, as well as many other...
متن کاملReverse Engineering of Network Software Binary Codes for Identification of Syntax and Semantics of Protocol Messages
Reverse engineering of network applications especially from the security point of view is of high importance and interest. Many network applications use proprietary protocols which specifications are not publicly available. Reverse engineering of such applications could provide us with vital information to understand their embedded unknown protocols. This could facilitate many tasks including d...
متن کاملLinear codes with complementary duals related to the complement of the Higman-Sims graph
In this paper we study codes $C_p(overline{{rm HiS}})$ where $p =3,7, 11$ defined by the 3- 7- and 11-modular representations of the simple sporadic group ${rm HS}$ of Higman and Sims of degree 100. With exception of $p=11$ the codes are those defined by the row span of the adjacency matrix of the complement of the Higman-Sims graph over $GF(3)$ and $GF(7).$ We show that these codes ha...
متن کاملNon-Existence of isomorphisms between certain unitals
We show that the Ree-Tits unitals are neither classical nor isomorphic to the polar unitals found in the Coulter-Matthews planes. To this end, we determine the full automorphism groups of the (finite) Ree unitals.
متن کاملCognitive dimensions of parenting styles of Iranian parents: A Qualitative Study
The aim of this study was to investigate the cognitive dimensions of parenting in Iran. The research has a qualitative design and the method used is Grounded Theory (GT). The population consisted of all Muslim parents with children over 10 years of age, living in Tehran and Karaj during the summer of 1395 to the summer of 1396. The sample contained 33 Muslim parents who were studied through se...
