Abstract:

A non-abelian finite group is called sequenceable if for some positive integer , is -generated ( ) and there exist integers such that every element of is a term of the -step generalized Fibonacci sequence , , , . A remarkable application of this definition may be find on the study of random covers in the cryptography. The 2-step generalized sequences for the dihedral groups studied for their periodicity in 2006 by H. Aydin and it is proved that in many cases for and , they are not periodic. Aydin’s work was in continuation of the research works of R. Dikici (1997) and E. Ozkan (2003) where they studied the ordinary Fibonacci sequences (sequences without the powers) of elements of groups. In this paper we consider 3-step generalized Fibonacci sequences and prove that the quaternion group Q (for every integer ) and the dihedral group (for every integer ) are sequenceable. The -covers together with the Fibonacci lengths of the corresponding 3-step sequences have been calculated as well.

non-divisibility for abelian groups

Throughout all groups are abelian. We say a group G is n-divisible if nG = G. If G has no non-zero n-divisible subgroups for all n>1 then we say that G is absolutely non-divisible. In the study of class C consisting   all absolutely non-divisible groups such as G, we come across the sub groups T_p(G) = the sum of all p-divisible subgroups and rad_p(G) = the intersection of all p^nG. The proper...

On Covers of Abelian Groups by Cosets

Let G be any abelian group and {asGs}ks=1 be a finite system of cosets of subgroups G1, . . . , Gk. We show that if {asGs} k s=1 covers all the elements of G at least m times with the coset atGt irredundant then [G : Gt] 6 2 and furthermore k > m + f([G : Gt]), where f( ∏ r i=1 p αi i ) = ∑ r i=1 αi(pi − 1) if p1, . . . , pr are distinct primes and α1, . . . , αr are nonnegative integers. This ...

Sequenceable Groups and Related Topics

In 1980, about 20 years after sequenceable groups were introduced by Gordon to construct row-complete latin squares, Keedwell published a survey of all the available results concerning sequencings. This was updated (jointly with Dénes) in 1991 and a short overview, including results about complete mappings and Rsequencings, was given in the CRC Handbook of Combinatorial Designs in 1995. In Sect...
