The small weight codewords of the functional codes associated to non-singular Hermitian varieties
This article studies the small weight codewords of the functional code CHerm(X), with X a non-singular Hermitian variety of PG(N, q2). The main result of this article is that the ...

On multiple caps in finite projective spaces
In this paper, we consider new results on (k, n)-caps with n > 2. We provide a lower bound on the size of such caps. Furthermore, we generalize two product constructions for (k,...

Comparing two pairing-based aggregate signature schemes
In 2003, Boneh, Gentry, Lynn and Shacham (BGLS) devised the first provably-secure aggregate signature scheme. Their scheme uses bilinear pairings and their security proof is in the...

Practical unconditionally secure two-channel message authentication
We investigate unconditional security for message authentication protocols that are designed using two-channel cryptography. We look at both noninteractive message authentication ...

A characterization of the Grassmann embedding of H(q), with q even
In this note, we characterize the Grassmann embedding of H(q), q even, as the unique full embedding of H(q) in PG(12, q) for which each ideal line of H(q) is contained in a plane....

Enumeration of orthogonal Buekenhout unitals
In this paper we develop general techniques for enumerating orthogonal Buekenhout unitals embedded in two-dimensional translation planes. We then apply these techniques in the reg...

The maximum size of a partial 3-spread in a finite vector space over GF(2)
Let n 3 be an integer, let Vn(2) denote the vector space of dimension n over GF(2), and let c be the least residue of n modulo 3. We prove that the maximum number of 3-dimensional...

On linear sets on a projective line
Linear sets generalise the concept of subgeometries in a projective space. They have many applications in finite geometry. In this paper we address two problems for linear sets: t...

On hyperovals of polar spaces
We derive lower and upper bounds for the size of a hyperoval of a finite polar space of rank r {2, 3}. We give a computer-free proof for the uniqueness, up to isomorphism, of the...
