Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue’s main purpose is to explore new encoding and decoding procedures based on different algebraic structures. In other words, this refers to the application of algebraic structures in error-control codes to find new algorithms that increase the number of errors that can be corrected and the speed of the encoding and decoding procedure. These algebraic structures have included commutative algebras, computational algebras, ordered algebras and hyper compositional algebras, emphasizing new combinatorial aspects related to lattice theory, theory of category, graph theory, and modeling.

This Special Issue accepts original and high-level contributions, where a connection between algebraic structures and coding theory or cryptography is presented. New theoretical aspects as well as practical applications representing current research directions on this topic are welcome. We also invite authors to submit high-quality review papers on the aforementioned topic.

In this note, we show that, for any real number τ[12,1), any finite set of positive integers K and any integer s12, the sequence of integers s1,s2,s3, satisfying si+1siK if si is a prime number, and 2si+1τsi if si is a composite number, is bounded from above. The bound is given in terms of an explicit constant depending on τ,s1 and the maximal element of K only. In particular, if K is a singleton set and for each composite si the integer si+1 in the interval [2,τsi] is chosen by some prescribed rule, e.g., si+1 is the largest prime divisor of si, then the sequence s1,s2,s3, is periodic. In general, we show that the sequences satisfying the above conditions are all periodic if and only if either K={1} and τ[12,34) or K={2} and τ[12,59). Full article

This manuscript aims to provide a new characterization of Sheffer stroke Hilbert algebras due to their ideals and proposes stabilizers. In the setup of the main results, we construct particular subsets of Sheffer stroke Hilbert algebras and we propose important properties of these subsets by investigating whether these sets are ideals or not. Furthermore, we investigate whether the introduced subsets of Sheffer stroke Hilbert algebras are minimal ideals. Afterwards, we define stabilizers in a Sheffer stroke Hilbert algebra and obtain their set theoretical properties. As an implementation of the theoretical findings, we present numerous examples and illustrative remarks to guide readers. Full article

In this paper, we focus on Brauer’s height zero conjecture, Robinson’s conjecture, and Olsson’s conjecture regarding the direct product of finite groups and give relative versions of these conjectures by restricting them to the algebraic concept of the anchor group of an irreducible character. Consider G to be a finite simple group. We prove that the anchor group of the irreducible character of G with degree p is the trivial group, where p is an odd prime. Additionally, we introduce the relative version of the Green correspondence theorem with respect to this group. We then apply the relative versions of these conjectures to suitable examples of simple groups. Classical and standard theories on the direct product of finite groups, block theory, and character theory are used to achieve these results. Full article

Abstract
Omega rings (Ω-rings) (and other related structures) are lattice-valued structures (with Ω being the codomain lattice) defined on crisp algebras of the same type, with lattice-valued equality replacing the classical one. In this paper, Ω-ideals are introduced, and natural connections [...] Read more.
Omega rings (Ω-rings) (and other related structures) are lattice-valued structures (with Ω being the codomain lattice) defined on crisp algebras of the same type, with lattice-valued equality replacing the classical one. In this paper, Ω-ideals are introduced, and natural connections with Ω-congruences and homomorphisms are established. As an application, a framework of approximate solutions of systems of linear equations over Ω-fields is developed. Full article
