A total perfect code in a graph is a subset of the graph's vertices with the property that each vertex in the graph is adjacent to exactly one vertex in the subset. We prove t...

The eccentricity e(v) of a vertex v in a strongly connected digraph G is the maximum distance from v. The eccentricity sequence of a digraph is the list of eccentricities of its v...
Various enumeration problems for classes of simply generated families of trees have been the object of investigation in the past. We mention the enumeration of independent subsets,...
We classify the minimal blocking sets of size 15 in PG(2, 9). We show that the only examples are the projective triangle and the sporadic example arising from the secants to the u...
We present 3 open challenges in the field of Costas arrays. They are: a) the determination of the number of dots on the main diagonal of a Welch array, and especially the maximal ...
We prove the non-existence of maximal partial spreads of size 76 in PG(3, 9). Relying on the classification of the minimal blocking sets of size 15 in PG(2, 9) [22], we show that ...
A (k; g)-graph is a k-regular graph with girth g. A (k; g)-cage is a (k; g)-graph with the least number of vertices. In this note, we show that (k; g)-cage has an r-factor of girt...
