چکیده

Difference sets wi th pa rame te r s (v, k, 2) m a y exist even if there are no abelian (v, k, ,~) difference sets; we give the first k n o w n example of this s i tuat ion. This example gives rise to an infinite family of non -abe l i an difference sets w i th pa rameters (4t 2, 2t a t, t 2 t), where t = 2 q. 3 r5 . 1 0 ' , q, r, s >/0, and r > 0 ~ q > 0. N o abel ian difference sets w i th these pa ramete r s are known. © 1995 Academic Press, Inc.

Difference sets and doubly transitive actions on Hadamard matrices

Non-affine groups acting doubly transitively on a Hadamard matrix have been classified by Ito. Implicit in this work is a list of Hadamard matrices with non-affine doubly transitive automorphism group. We give this list explicitly, in the process settling an old research problem of Ito and Leon. We then use our classification to show that the only cocyclic Hadamard matrices developed form a dif...

Inequivalence of Skew Hadamard Difference Sets and Triple Intersection Numbers Modulo a Prime

Recently, Feng and Xiang [10] found a new construction of skew Hadamard difference sets in elementary abelian groups. In this paper, we introduce a new invariant for equivalence of skew Hadamard difference sets, namely triple intersection numbers modulo a prime, and discuss inequivalence between Feng-Xiang skew Hadamard difference sets and the Paley difference sets. As a consequence, we show th...

Nonexistence of Abelian Difference Sets: Lander’s Conjecture for Prime Power Orders

In 1963 Ryser conjectured that there are no circulant Hadamard matrices of order > 4 and no cyclic difference sets whose order is not coprime to the group order. These conjectures are special cases of Lander’s conjecture which asserts that there is no abelian group with a cyclic Sylow p-subgroup containing a difference set of order divisible by p. We verify Lander’s conjecture for all differenc...

Special subsets of difference sets with particular emphasis on skew Hadamard difference sets

This article introduces a new approach to studying difference sets via their additive properties. We introduce the concept of special subsets, which are interesting combinatorial objects in their own right, but also provide a mechanism for measuring additive regularity. Skew Hadamard difference sets are given special attention, and the structure of their special subsets leads to several results...

A Survey of Hadamard Difference Sets

difference set, Hadamard A (u,k,A) difference set is a k-element subset D of a group G of order u for which the multiset {dldl2: dl,d2 E D, dl =t= d2} contains each nonidentity element of G exactly A times. A Hadamard difference set (HDS) has parameters of the form (u,k, A) = (4N2,2N2_N, N2·N). The Hadamard parameters provide the richest source of known examples of difference sets. The central ...
