AbstractThe Jevons group AS̃n is an isometry group of the Hamming metric on the n-dimensional vector space Vn over GF(2). It is generated by the group of all permutation (n × n)-matrices over GF(2) and the translation group on Vn. Earlier the authors of the present paper classified the submetrics of the Hamming metric on Vn for n ⩾ 4, and all overgroups of AS̃n which are isometry groups of these overmetrics. In turn, each overgroup of AS̃n is known to define orbital graphs whose “natural” metrics are submetrics of the Hamming metric. The authors also described all distance-transitive orbital graphs of overgroups of the Jevons group AS̃n. In the present paper we classify the distance-transitive orbital graphs of overgroups of the Jevons group. In particular, we show that some distance-transitive orbital graphs are isomorphic to the following classes: the complete graph 2n, the complete bipartite graph K2n−1,2n−1, the halved (n + 1)-cube, the folded (n + 1)-cube, the graphs of alternating forms, the Taylor graph, the Hadamard graph, and incidence graphs of square designs.

AbstractThis paper is a complement to the work of the second author on modular quotient singularities in odd characteristic. Here, we prove that if V is a three-dimensional vector space over a field of characteristic 2 and G < GL(V) is a finite subgroup generated by pseudoreflections and possessing a two-dimensional invariant subspace W such that the restriction of G to W is isomorphic to the group SL2(𝔽2n), then the quotient V/G is non-singular. This, together with earlier known results on modular quotient singularities, implies first that a theorem of Kemper and Malle on irreducible groups generated by pseudoreflections generalizes to reducible groups in dimension three, and, second, that the classification of three-dimensional isolated singularities that are quotients of a vector space by a linear finite group reduces to Vincent's classification of non-modular isolated quotient singularities.

Let L(G) be the second skew-symmetric cohomology group of the residual space of a graph G. We determine L(G) in the case G is a 3-connected simple graph, and give the structure of L(G) in the case of G is a complete graph and a complete bipartite graph. By using these results, we determine the Wu invariants in L(G) of the spatial embeddings of the complete graph and those of the complete bipartite graph, respectively. Since the Wu invariant of a spatial embedding is a complete invariant up to homology which is an equivalence relation on spatial embeddings introduced in [12], we give a homology classification of the spatial embeddings of such graphs.

Let [Formula: see text] be a k-dimensional vector space over a finite field [Formula: see text] with a basis [Formula: see text]. The nonzero component graph of [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text], is a simple undirected graph with vertex set as nonzero vectors of [Formula: see text] such that there is an edge between two distinct vertices [Formula: see text] if and only if there exists at least one [Formula: see text] along which both [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] have nonzero scalars. In this paper, we find the vertex connectivity and girth of [Formula: see text]. We also characterize all vector spaces [Formula: see text] for which [Formula: see text] has genus either 0 or 1 or 2.

AbstractLet Fq be a finite field with q elements, V an n-dimensional vector space over Fq and 𝒱 the projective space associated to V. Let G≤GLn(Fq) be a classical group and PG be the corresponding projective group. In this note we prove that if Fq (V )G is purely transcendental over Fq with homogeneous polynomial generators, then Fq (𝒱)PG is also purely transcendental over Fq. We compute explicitly the generators of Fq (𝒱)PG when G is the symplectic, unitary or orthogonal group.

The Theorems of Pappus and Desargues (for the projective plane over a field) are generalized here by two identities involving determinants and cross products. These identities are proved to hold in the three-dimensional vector space over a field. They are closely related to the Arguesian identity in lattice theory and to Cayley-Grassmann identities in invariant theory.
