Antipodality of spherical designs with odd harmonic indices
Ryutaro Misawa, Akihiro Munemasa, Masanori Sawa
We determine the smallest size of a non-antipodal spherical design with harmonic indices to be , where is a positive integer. This is achieved by pro…

Ellipsoidal designs and the Prouhet--Tarry--Escott problem
Hideki Matsumura, Masanori Sawa
The notion of ellipsoidal design was first introduced by Pandey (2022) as a full generalization of spherical designs on the unit circle . In this paper, we elucidate the advan…
