This note presents an implicit function theorem for generalized equations, simultaneously generalizing Robinson’s implicit function theorem for strongly regular generalized equations and Clarke’s implicit function theorem for equations with Lipschitz-continuous mappings.

The purpose of this paper is to define a new equivalence relation τ∗ on divisible hypergroups and to show that this relation is the smallest strongly regular relation (the fundamental relation) on commutative divisible hypergroups. We show that τ∗ ̸= β∗, τ∗ ̸= γ∗ and, we define a divisible hypergroup on every nonempty set. We show that the quotient of a finite divisible hypergroup by τ∗ is the tr...

We provide a new construction of the strongly regular graphs associated with the two sporadic simple groups M22 and HS. Further, we give some new constructions of other known strongly regular graphs by taking the orbits of a certain subgroup of M22 on the planes of the Hermitian variety H(5, 4). These geometric constructions can be used to produce cap codes with large parameters and automorphis...

For every n positive integer we show the construction of a strongly regular graph of order at most 2 which contains every graph of ordered n as a subgraph. The estimation concerning the construction is best possible.

In a previous paper it was established that there are at least 27 non-isomorphic strongly regular (40, 12, 2, 4) graphs. Using a different and more efficient method we have re-investigated these graphs and have now been able to determine them all, and so complete the classification. We have discovered that there are precisely 28 non-isomorphic (40, 12, 2, 4) strongly regular graphs. The one tha...

Let ∆ be one of the dual polar spaces DQ(8, q), DQ−(7, q), and let e : ∆ → Σ denote the spin-embedding of ∆. We show that e(∆) is a two-intersection set of the projective space Σ. Moreover, if ∆ ∼= DQ−(7, q), then e(∆) is a (q + 1)-tight set of a nonsingular hyperbolic quadric Q(7, q) of Σ ∼= PG(7, q). This (q + 1)-tight set gives rise to more examples of (q + 1)-tight sets of hyperbolic quadri...

We construct and study a new near octagon of order (2, 10) which has its full automorphism group isomorphic to the group G2(4) : 2 and which contains 416 copies of the Hall-Janko near octagon as full subgeometries. Using this near octagon and its substructures we give geometric constructions of the G2(4)-graph and the Suzuki graph, both of which are strongly regular graphs contained in the Suzu...

We consider a generalized version of the proximal point algorithm for solving the perturbed inclusion y ∈ T (x), where y is a perturbation element near 0 and T is a set-valued mapping acting from a Banach space X to a Banach space Y which is metrically regular around some point point (x̄, 0) in its graph. We study the behavior of the convergent iterates generated by the algorithm and we prove th...
