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...

In this paper we introduce the smallest equivalence relation ξ∗ on a finite fuzzy hypergroup S such that the quotient group S/ξ∗, the set of all equivalence classes, is a solvable group. The characterization of solvable groups via strongly regular relation is investigated and several results on the topic are presented.

New (96,20,4,4) and (96,19,2,4) regular partial difference sets are constructed, together with the corresponding strongly regular graphs. Our source are (96,20,4) regular symmetric designs.
