چکیده

The automorphism group of the Barnes-Wall lattice Lm in dimension 2 m (m 6= 3) is a subgroup of index 2 in a certain “Clifford group” of structure 2 + .O (2m, 2). This group and its complex analogue CIm of structure (2 + YZ8).Sp(2m, 2) have arisen in recent years in connection with the construction of orthogonal spreads, Kerdock sets, packings in Grassmannian spaces, quantum codes, Siegel modular forms and spherical designs. In this paper we give a simpler proof of Runge’s 1996 result that the space of invariants for Cm of degree 2k is spanned by the complete weight enumerators of the codes C ⊗ F2m, where C ranges over all binary self-dual codes of length 2k; these are a basis if m ≥ k − 1. We also give new constructions for Lm and Cm: let M be the Z[ √ 2]-lattice with Gram matrix

New Algorithm For Computing Secondary Invariants of Invariant Rings of Monomial Groups

In this paper, a new  algorithm for computing secondary invariants of  invariant rings of monomial groups is presented. The main idea is to compute simultaneously a truncated SAGBI-G basis and the standard invariants of the ideal generated by the set of primary invariants.  The advantage of the presented algorithm lies in the fact that it is well-suited to complexity analysis and very easy to i...

On the Fischer-Clifford matrices of a maximal subgroup of the Lyons group Ly

The non-split extension group $overline{G} = 5^3{^.}L(3,5)$ is a subgroup of order 46500000 and of index 1113229656 in Ly. The group $overline{G}$ in turn has L(3,5) and $5^2{:}2.A_5$ as inertia factors. The group $5^2{:}2.A_5$ is of order 3 000 and is of index 124 in L(3,5). The aim of this paper is to compute the Fischer-Clifford matrices of $overline{G}$, which together with associated parti...

On the non-split extension group $2^{6}{^{cdot}}Sp(6,2)$

In this paper we first construct the non-split extension $overline{G}= 2^{6} {^{cdot}}Sp(6,2)$ as a permutation group acting on 128 points. We then determine the conjugacy classes using the coset analysis technique, inertia factor groups and Fischer matrices, which are required for the computations of the character table of $overline{G}$ by means of Clifford-Fischer Theory. There are two inerti...

On the Fischer-Clifford matrices of the non-split extension $2^6{{}^{cdot}}G_2(2)$

The group $2^6{{}^{cdot}} G_2(2)$ is a maximal subgroup of the Rudvalis group $Ru$ of index 188500 and has order 774144 = $2^{12}.3^3.7$. In this paper, we construct the character table of the group $2^6{{}^{cdot}} G_2(2)$ by using the technique of Fischer-Clifford matrices.

New Improvement in Interpretation of Gravity Gradient Tensor Data Using Eigenvalues and Invariants: An Application to Blatchford Lake, Northern Canada

Recently, interpretation of causative sources using components of the gravity gradient tensor (GGT) has had a rapid progress. Assuming N as the structural index, components of the gravity vector and gravity gradient tensor have a homogeneity degree of -N and - (N+1), respectively. In this paper, it is shown that the eigenvalues, the first and the second rotational invariants of the GGT (I1 and ...
