Generalizations of nets and Latin squares

Brian Curtin

We examine combinatorial structures that generalize -nets, orthogonal arrays, and mutually orthogonal Latin squares. By a reticulation we mean a point set and two collection…

Combinatorial structures connecting Latin squares and bireversible automata

Brian Curtin, Dmytro Savchuk

This paper explores the theory of letter transducers, Mealy automata, and bireversible automata from a combinatorial perspective analogous to the theory of Latin squares. We view t…

Excluded power graphs of groups

Brian Curtin

Let be a set of integers greater than one. The -excluded power graph of a group has vertex set and an edge from to each power of other th…

Terwilliger algebras constructed from Cayley tables of finite Bol loops

Brian Curtin

We describe the Terwilliger algebras of the four-class Latin-square association schemes arising from Cayley tables of Bol loops. We give some necessary conditions involving Terwill…

Edge-maximality of power graphs of finite cyclic groups

Brian Curtin, Gholam Reza Pourgholi

We show that among all finite groups of any given order, the cyclic group of that order has the maximum number of edges in its power graph. Contains corrections to published versio…

A group sum inequality and its application to power graphs

Brian Curtin, Gholam Reza Pourgholi

Let be a finite group of order , and let be the cyclic group of order . We show that , with e…
