On perfect colorings of the halved 24-cube

A vertex 2-coloring of a graph is said to be perfect with parameters $(a_{ij})_{i,j=1}^k$ if for every $i,j\in\{1,...,k\}$ every vertex of color $i$ is adjacent with exactly $a_{ij}$ vertices of color $j$. We consider the perfect 2-colorings of the distance-2 graph of the 24-cube $\{0,1\}^{24}$ with parameters $((20+c,256-c)(c,276-c))$ (i.e., with eigenvalue 20). We prove that such colorings exist for all $c$ from 1 to 128 except 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 10, 13 and do not exist for $c=1, 2, 4, 5, 7$. Keywords: perfect coloring, equitable partition, hypercube, halved n-cube

On reconstructing reducible n-ary quasigroups and switching subquasigroups

(1) We prove that, provided n>=4, a permutably reducible n-ary quasigroup is uniquely specified by its values on the n-ples containing zero. (2) We observe that for each n,k>=2 and r<=[k/2] there exists a reducible n-ary quasigroup of order k with an n-ary subquasigroup of order r. As corollaries, we have the following: (3) For each k>=4 and n>=3 we can construct a permutably irreducible n-ary quasigroup of order k. (4) The number of n-ary quasigroups of order k>3 has double-exponential growth as n tends to infinity; it is greater than exp exp(n ln[k/3]) if k>=6, and exp exp(n (ln 3)/3 - 0.44) if k=5.

On mobile sets in the binary hypercube

If two distance-3 codes have the same neighborhood, then each of them is called a mobile set. In the (4k+3)-dimensional binary hypercube, there exists a mobile set of cardinality 2*6^k that cannot be split into mobile sets of smaller cardinalities or represented as a natural extension of a mobile set in a hypercube of smaller dimension. Keywords: mobile set; 1-perfect code.

Z4-Linear Perfect Codes

For every $n = 2^k > 8$ there exist exactly $[(k+1)/2]$ mutually nonequivalent $Z_4$-linear extended perfect codes with distance 4. All these codes have different ranks.

Z4-linear Hadamard and extended perfect codes

If $N=2^k > 8$ then there exist exactly $[(k-1)/2]$ pairwise nonequivalent $Z_4$-linear Hadamard $(N,2N,N/2)$-codes and $[(k+1)/2]$ pairwise nonequivalent $Z_4$-linear extended perfect $(N,2^N/2N,4)$-codes. A recurrent construction of $Z_4$-linear Hadamard codes is given.

On reducibility of n-ary quasigroups

An $n$-ary operation $Q:S^n -> S$ is called an $n$-ary quasigroup of order $|S|$ if in the equation $x_{0}=Q(x_1,...,x_n)$ knowledge of any $n$ elements of $x_0$, ..., $x_n$ uniquely specifies the remaining one. $Q$ is permutably reducible if $Q(x_1,...,x_n)=P(R(x_{s(1)},...,x_{s(k)}),x_{s(k+1)},...,x_{s(n)})$ where $P$ and $R$ are $(n-k+1)$-ary and $k$-ary quasigroups, $s$ is a permutation, and $1 0$ arguments. We prove that if the maximum arity of a permutably irreducible retract of an $n$-ary quasigroup $Q$ belongs to $\{3,...,n-3\}$, then $Q$ is permutably reducible.

On irreducible n-ary quasigroups with reducible retracts

An n-ary operation q:A^n->A is called an n-ary quasigroup of order |A| if in x_0=q(x_1,...,x_n) knowledge of any n elements of x_0,...,x_n uniquely specifies the remaining one. An n-ary quasigroup q is permutably reducible if q(x_1,...,x_n)=p(r(x_{s(1)},...,x_{s(k)}),x_{s(k+1)},...,x_{s(n)}) where p and r are (n-k+1)-ary and k-ary quasigroups, s is a permutation, and 1<k<n. For even n we construct a permutably irreducible n-ary quasigroup of order 4r such that all its retracts obtained by fixing one variable are permutably reducible. We use a partial Boolean function that satisfies similar properties. For odd n the existence of a permutably irreducible n-ary quasigroup such that all its (n-1)-ary retracts are permutably reducible is an open question; however, there are nonexistence results for 5-ary and 7-ary quasigroups of order 4.

On decomposability of 4-ary distance 2 MDS codes, double-codes, and n-quasigroups of order 4

A subset $S$ of $\{0,1,...,2t-1\}^n$ is called a $t$-fold MDS code if every line in each of $n$ base directions contains exactly $t$ elements of $S$. The adjacency graph of a $t$-fold MDS code is not connected if and only if the characteristic function of the code is the repetition-free sum of the characteristic functions of $t$-fold MDS codes of smaller lengths. In the case $t=2$, the theory has the following application. The union of two disjoint $(n,4^{n-1},2)$ MDS codes in $\{0,1,2,3\}^n$ is a double-MDS-code. If the adjacency graph of the double-MDS-code is not connected, then the double-code can be decomposed into double-MDS-codes of smaller lengths. If the graph has more than two connected components, then the MDS codes are also decomposable. The result has an interpretation as a test for reducibility of $n$-quasigroups of order 4. Keywords: MDS codes, n-quasigroups, decomposability, reducibility, frequency hypercubes, latin hypercubes
