We announce the development and implementation of a new GAP package PCQL. This facilitates the computation of consistent polycyclic presentations for polycyclic quotients of groups...
In the symmetric group on a set of size 2n, let P2n denote the conjugacy class of involutions with no fixed points (equivalently, we refer to these as “pairings”, since each ...
Abstract. I describe a modification to Shanks' baby-step giant-step algorithm for computing the order n of an element g of a group G, assuming n is finite. My method has the a...
We show that an affine-invariant code C of length pm is not permutation equivalent to a cyclic code except in the obvious cases: m = 1 or C is either {0}, the repetition code or it...
In this paper we construct a cyclically invariant Boolean function whose sensitivity is Θ(n1/3 ). This result answers two previously published questions. Tur´an (1984) asked if ...
