Proof of a conjecture of Segre and Bartocci on monomial hyperovals in projective planes
The existence of certain monomial hyperovals D ( x k ) in the finite Desarguesian projective plane PG (2, q ), q even, is related to the existence of...

A geometric proof of a theorem on antiregularity of generalized quadrangles
A geometric proof is given in terms of Laguerre geometry of the theorem of Bagchi, Brouwer and Wilbrink, which states that if a generalized...

On construction of involutory MDS matrices from Vandermonde Matrices in GF(2 q )
Due to their remarkable application in many branches of applied mathematics such as combinatorics, coding theory, and cryptography, Vandermonde...

A condition for arcs and MDS codes
A set of n + k points ( k > 0) in projective space of dimension n is said to be an ( n + k )-arc if there is no hyperplane containing any n + 1 points...

On multiple caps in finite projective spaces
In this paper, we consider new results on ( k , n )-caps with n > 2. We provide a lower bound on the size of such caps. Furthermore, we generalize two...

On incidence structures of nonsingular points and hyperbolic lines of ovoids in finite orthogonal spaces
We study the point-line incidence structures of nonsingular points and hyperbolic secant lines associated with ovoids in finite orthogonal spaces. We...

Linear codes with covering radius 3
The shortest possible length of a q -ary linear code of covering radius R and codimension r is called the length function and is denoted by ℓ ...

Spreads in Projective Hjelmslev Geometries
We prove a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of spreads in the projective Hjelmslev geometries... -
Complete (q 2 + q + 8)/2-caps in the spaces PG(3, q), q ≡ 2 (mod 3) an odd prime, and a complete 20-cap in PG(3, 5)
An infinite family of complete ( q 2 + q + 8)/2-caps is constructed in PG (3, q ) where q is an odd prime ≡ 2 (mod 3), q ≥ 11. This yields a new lower...

Tight sets, weighted m-covers, weighted m-ovoids, and minihypers
Minihypers are substructures of projective spaces introduced to study linear codes meeting the Griesmer bound. Recently, many results in finite...

Maximal caps in AG (6, 3)
We show that there are no complete 44-caps in AG(5, 3). We then use this result to prove that the maximal size for a cap in AG(6, 3) is equal to 112,...

On cyclic caps in 4-dimensional projective spaces
For any divisor k of q 4 −1, the elements of a group of k th -roots of unity can be viewed as a cyclic point set C k in PG (4, q ). An interesting...

Twisted tensor product codes
We present two families of constacyclic linear codes with large automorphism groups. The codes are obtained from the twisted tensor product...

Veronese embedding and two–character sets
Two infinite families of two–character sets in PG (5, q ) arising from the Veronese surface of PG (5, q ) are constructed.

LDPC codes generated by conics in the classical projective plane
We construct various classes of low-density parity-check codes using point-line incidence structures in the classical projective plane PG (2, q ). Each...

Classification and Constructions of Complete Caps in Binary Spaces
We give new recursive constructions of complete caps in PG( n ,2). We approach the problem of constructing caps with low dependency via the doubling...
