Complex spherical codes with two inner products

Rationality of the inner products of spherical $s$-distance $t$-designs for $t \geq 2s-2$, $s \geq 3$

We prove that the inner products of spherical $s$-distance $t$-designs with $t \geq 2s-2$ (Delsarte codes) and $s \geq 3$ are rational with the only exception being the icosahedron. In other formulations, we prove that all sharp configurations have rational inner products and all spherical codes which attain the Levenshtein bound, have rational inner products, except for the icosahedron.

Inside s-inner product sets and Euclidean designs

A finite set X in the Euclidean space is called an s-inner product set if the set of the usual inner products of any two distinct points in X has size s. First, we give a special upper bound for the cardinality of an s-inner product set on concentric spheres. The upper bound coincides with the known lower bound for the size of a Euclidean 2s-design. Secondly, we prove the non-existence of 2- or 3-inner product sets on two concentric spheres attaining the upper bound for any d>1. The efficient property needed to prove the upper bound for an s-inner product set gives the new concept, inside s-in…

Complex spherical codes with three inner products

Let $X$ be a finite set in a complex sphere of $d$ dimension. Let $D(X)$ be the set of usual inner products of two distinct vectors in $X$. A set $X$ is called a complex spherical $s$-code if the cardinality of $D(X)$ is $s$ and $D(X)$ contains an imaginary number. We would like to classify the largest possible $s$-codes for given dimension $d$. In this paper, we consider the problem for the case $s=3$. Roy and Suda (2014) gave a certain upper bound for the cardinalities of $3$-codes. A $3$-code $X$ is said to be tight if $X$ attains the bound. We show that there exists no tight $3$-code excep…

Sign Patterns of Orthogonal Matrices and the Strong Inner Product Property

A new condition, the strong inner product property, is introduced and used to construct sign patterns of row orthogonal matrices. Using this property, infinite families of sign patterns allowing row orthogonality are found. These provide insight into the underlying combinatorial structure of row orthogonal matrices. Algorithmic techniques for verifying that a matrix has the strong inner product property are also presented. These techniques lead to a generalization of the strong inner product property and can be easily implemented using various software.

Semidefinite programming bounds for complex spherical codes

A complex spherical code is a finite subset on the unit sphere in $\mathbb{C}^d$. A fundamental problem on complex spherical codes is to find upper bounds for those with prescribed inner products. In this paper, we determine the irreducible decomposition under the action of the one-point stabilizer of the unitary group $U(d)$ on the polynomial ring $\mathbb{C}[z_1\ldots,z_d,\bar{z}_1,\ldots,\bar{z}_d]$ in order to obtain the semidefinite programming bounds for complex spherical codes.
