Title: | A Sharp Exponent Bound for McFarland Difference Sets withp=2 | Authors: | Ma, S.L. Schmidt, B. |
Issue Date: | Nov-1997 | Citation: | Ma, S.L., Schmidt, B. (1997-11). A Sharp Exponent Bound for McFarland Difference Sets withp=2. Journal of Combinatorial Theory. Series A 80 (2) : 347-352. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1006/jcta.1997.2808 | Abstract: | We show that under the self-conjugacy condition a McFarland difference set withp=2 andf≥2 in an abelian groupGcan only exist, if the exponent of the Sylow 2-subgroup does not exceed 4. The method also works for oddp(where the exponent bound ispand is necessary and sufficient), so that we obtain a unified proof of the exponent bounds for McFarland difference sets. We also correct a mistake in the proof of an exponent bound for (320, 88, 24)-difference sets in a previous paper. © 1997 Academic Press. | Source Title: | Journal of Combinatorial Theory.
