چکیده

We examine the designs produced by different types of difference families. Difference families have long been known to produce designs with well behaved automorphism groups. These designs provide the elegant solutions desired for applications. In this work, we explore the following question: Does every (named) design have a difference family analogue? We answer this question in the affirmative for partial geometric designs.

A Comparative Study into “Gere Geometric Designs” in Islamic Architecture and Principle of “Perceptual Creation” in the Mystical Thoughts of Ibn Arabi

This article is an analytic and comparative study into abstract patterns of geometric designs, as one of the most significant spaces in the Islamic architecture, and the principle of perceptual creation. It has a comparative approach to investigate equivalence, effigy, and analogies between the micro and macro systems (in the hierarchical system of the universe). In the mystical cosmology of Ib...

Typology of Geometric Arrays of Human Figures’ Apparel in the Mina`i Pottery of the 6th and 7th Centuries AH.

Mina`i pottery produced in the late Seljuk and Khwarezmshahi periods under the supervision of pottery masters and painters, is more diverse and magnificent in terms of design and portrait than the previous works. In this group of pottery, human figures have a special place and are often seen in pottery. Various geometric patterns have been used in the apparel of these motifs, which has made ena...

A Study of Geometric Ornaments of Plaster Mihrabs Made between 12th and the mid-14th Centuries in Iran

The geometric ornaments are considered as a kind of decorating that has been used mostly in the Islamic art, alone and sometimes in conjunction with other motifs or inscriptions. The plaster altars made between 12th and the mid-14th centuries towards the Seljuk and Ilkhanid dynasties, are also considered as the works that have been decorated using various plant decorations and inscriptions, as ...

On some new constructions of difference sets

Difference sets are mathematical structures which arise in algebra and combinatorics, with applications in coding theory. The fundamental question is when and how one can construct difference sets. This largely expository paper looks at standard construction methods and describes recent findings that resulted in new families of difference sets. This paper provides explicit examples of differenc...

Cyclotomic construction of strong external difference families in finite fields

Strong external difference family (SEDF) and its generalizations GSEDF, BGSEDF in a finite abelian group G are combinatorial designs raised by Paterson and Stinson [7] in 2016 and have applications in communication theory to construct optimal strong algebraic manipulation detection codes. In this paper we firstly present some general constructions of these combinatorial designs by using differe...
