Galois equiangular tight frames from Galois self-dual codes
Greaves et al. (2022) extended frames over real or complex numbers to frames over finite fields. In this paper, we study the theory of frames over finite fields by incorporating the Galois inner products introduced by Fan and Zhang (2017), which generalize the Euclidean and Hermitian inner products. We define a class of frames, called Galois frames over finite fields, along with related notions such as Galois Gram matrices, Galois frame operators, and Galois equiangular tight frames (Galois ETF…

Complete Classification of Directed Quantum Graphs on M2
In 2022, Gromada and Matsuda classified undirected quantum graphs on the matrix algebra $M_2$. Later, Wasilweski provided a solid theory of directed quantum graphs which was formerly only established for undirected quantum graphs. Using this framework we extend the results of Matsuda and Gromada, and present a complete classification of directed quantum graphs on $M_2$. Most prominently, we observe that there is a far bigger range of directed quantum graphs than of undirected quantum graphs on …

Extendability of $1$-decomposable complexes
A well-known conjecture of Simon (1994) states that any pure $d$-dimensional shellable complex on $n$ vertices can be extended to $Δ_{n-1}^{(d)}$, the $d$-skeleton of the $(n-1)$-dimensional simplex, by attaching one facet at a time while maintaining shellability. The notion of $k$-decomposability for simplicial complexes, which generalizes shellability, was introduced by Provan and Billera (1980). Coleman, Dochtermann, Geist, and Oh (2022) showed that any pure $d$-dimensional $0$-decomposab…

This study evaluated the impact of Zinc (Zn) supplementation on the growth, yield, and seed quality of chickpea (Pisum sativum L.) under the semi-arid conditions of Kerman, Iran, across two growing seasons (2021-2022). A randomized complete block design was used with six treatments, including varying concentrations of zinc sulphate applied via foliar spraying (0.1%, 0.25%, 0.5%) or irrigation (4, 8, 16 kg/ha), each applied twice-one and two months after greening. Results from the first year rev…
