Linear codes with few weights have applications in secrete sharing, authentication codes, association schemes, and strongly regular graphs. In this paper, several classes of p-ary linear codes with two or three weights are constructed from quadratic Bent functions over the finite field Fp, where p is an odd prime. They include some earlier linear codes as special cases. The weight distributions...

By means of an exhaustive computer search we have proved that the strongly regular graphs with parameters (v, k, λ, μ) = (105, 32, 4, 12), (120, 42, 8, 18) and (176, 70, 18, 34) are unique upto isomorphism. Each of these graphs occurs as an induced subgraph in the strongly regular McLaughlin graph. We have used an orderly backtracking algorithm with look-ahead and look-back strategies, applying...

We use nonstandard topology and the g-topology to characterize normal, almost-normal, regular, almost-regular, semiregular spaces. The cluster [resp. 0-cluster] set relation is used to characterize regular, almostregular [resp. strongly-regular] spaces. The Whyburn [resp. Dickman] filter bases are characterized and it is shown that the cluster [resp. f-cluster] set relation restricted to the do...

The group PGL(2, q) has an embedding into PGL(3, q) such that it acts as the group fixing a nonsingular conic in PG(2, q). This action affords a coherent configuration R(q) on the set L(q) of non-tangent lines of the conic. We show that the relations can be described by using the cross-ratio. Our results imply that the restrictions R+(q) and R−(q) of R(q) to the set L+(q) of secant (hyperbolic)...

We introduced and study fuzzy Γ-hypersemigroups, according to fuzzy semihypergroups as previously defined [33] and prove that results in this respect. In this regard first we introduce fuzzy hyperoperation and then study fuzzy Γ-hypersemigroup. We will proceed by study fuzzy Γ-hyperideals and fuzzy Γ-bihyperideals. Also we study the relation between the classes of fuzzy Γ-hypersemigroups and Γ-...

This paper introduces the high efficiency operation of switched reluctance generator (SRG). The proposed SRG operates under the rated speed. The high efficiency can be obtained by the optimal current shape which can make the total losses minimum. For this purpose, theoretical analysis of the copper and core loss is done. In addition, a modified angle position control (MAPC) method which can get...

Linear codes with few weights have many applications in secret sharing schemes, authentication codes, communication and strongly regular graphs. In this paper, we consider linear codes with three weights in arbitrary characteristic. To do this, we generalize the recent contribution of Mesnager given in [Cryptography and Communications 9(1), 71-84, 2017]. We first present a new class of binary l...

Linear codes with few weights have been an interesting subject of study for many years, as these codes have applications in secrete sharing, authentication codes, association schemes, and strongly regular graphs. In this paper, linear codes with a few weights are constructed from inhomogeneous quadratic functions over the finite field GF(p), where p is an odd prime. They include some earlier li...

We introduce the fatness parameter of a 4-dimensional polytope P, defined as φ(P) = ( f1 + f2)/( f0 + f3). It arises in an important open problem in 4-dimensional combinatorial geometry: Is the fatness of convex 4polytopes bounded? We describe and analyze a hyperbolic geometry construction that produces 4-polytopes with fatness φ(P) > 5.048, as well as the first infinite family of 2-simple, 2-s...
