We determine the rank and chromatic number of the complements of all Kasami graphs, some of which form an infinite family of counterexamples to the now disproven rank-coloring conjecture. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

We give two applications of the recent classification of locally finite simple finitary skew linear groups. We show that certain irreducible finitary skew linear groups of infinite dimension, generate the variety of all groups and have infinite Prüfer rank.

We extend F.Pastjin's construction of uniform decomposable chains of finite rank to those of rank 'finite over a limit' and investigate infinite (length ω) products and unions of such chains. We derive an extension of Pastjin's characterisation to uniform decomposable chains of small transfinite rank (≤ ω + ω).

We construct and study various dual pairs between finite dimensional classical Lie groups and infinite dimensional Lie algebras in some Fock representations. The infinite dimensional Lie algebras here can be either a completed infinite rank affine Lie algebra, the W1+∞ algebra or its certain Lie subalgebras. We give a formulation in the framework of vertex algebras. We also formulate several co...

In the paper, we study finitely generated linear groups of finite rank which have faithful irreducible primitive representations over a field characteristic zero. We prove that if an infinite group [Formula: see text] has representation zero then text]-center is infinite.

For a noisy quantum channel, a quantum error correcting code exists if and only if the joint higher rank numerical ranges associated with the error operators of the channel is non-empty. In this paper, geometric properties of the joint higher rank numerical ranges are obtained and their implications to quantum computing are discussed. It is shown that if the dimension of the underlying Hilbert ...

In [Rank-Width and Well-Quasi-Ordering of Skew-Symmetric or Symmetric Matrices, arXiv:1007.3807v1] Oum proved that, for a fixed finite field F, any infinite sequenceM1,M2, . . . of (skew) symmetric matrices over F of bounded F-rank-width has a pair i < j, such that Mi is isomorphic to a principal submatrix of a principal pivot transform of Mj . We generalise this result to σ-symmetric matrices ...
