On de Bruijn Array Codes Part II: Linear Codes

Simon Blackburn, Yeow Meng Chee, Tuvi Etzion +1

An M-sequence generated by a primitive polynomial has many interesting and desirable properties. A pseudo-random array is the two-dimensional generalization of an M-sequence. There…

Large Scale Raman Spectrum Calculations in Defective 2D Materials using Deep Learning

Olivier Malenfant-Thuot, Dounia Shaaban Kabakibo, Simon Blackburn +2

We introduce a machine learning prediction workflow to study the impact of defects on the Raman response of 2D materials. By combining the use of machine-learned interatomic potent…

An upper bound on the per-tile entropy of ribbon tilings

Simon Blackburn, Yinsong Chen, Vladislav Kargin

This paper considers -ribbon tilings of general regions and their per-tile entropy (the binary logarithm of the number of tilings divided by the number of tiles). We show that t…

Exponent-Critical Groups

Simon R. Blackburn, William Cocke, Andrew Misseldine +1

We define and investigate the property of being `exponent-critical' for a finite group. A finite group is said to be exponent-critical if its exponent is not the least common multi…
