Partial spreads and vector space partitions
Thomas Honold, Michael Kiermaier, Sascha Kurz
Constant-dimension codes with the maximum possible minimum distance have been studied under the name of partial spreads in Finite Geometry for several decades. Not surprisingly, fo…
Fair Representation and a Linear Shapley Rule
Sascha Kurz, Nicola Maaser, Stefan Napel
When delegations to an assembly or council represent differently sized constituencies, they are often allocated voting weights which increase in population numbers (EU Council, US…
Upper bounds for partial spreads
Sascha Kurz
A partial -spread in is a collection of -dimensional subspaces with trivial intersection such that each non-zero vector is covered at most once. We present s…
Classification of large partial plane spreads in and related combinatorial objects
Thomas Honold, Michael Kiermaier, Sascha Kurz
In this article, the partial plane spreads in of maximum possible size and of size are classified. Based on this result, we obtain the classification of the fol…
The order of the automorphism group of a binary -analog of the Fano plane is at most two
Michael Kiermaier, Sascha Kurz, Alfred Wassermann
It is shown that the automorphism group of a binary -analog of the Fano plane is either trivial or of order .
Computing the Power Distribution in the IMF
Sascha Kurz
The International Monetary Fund is one of the largest international organizations using a weighted voting system. The weights of its 188 members are determined by a fixed amount of…
