An uncomplicated introduction to representational measurement theory
Abstract Measurement in psychology is often associated with psychometrics. Despite the theoretical insights afforded by psychometric methods, they represent only a restricted range of possible measurement approaches in the social sciences. Representational measurement theory (RMT) generalizes the logic of measurement developed in the physical sciences ...

The Groups of Isometries of Metric Spaces over Vector Groups
In this paper, we consider the groups of isometries of metric spaces arising from finitely generated additive abelian groups. Let A be a finitely generated additive abelian group.

Characterizing Pyramidal Hadamard Designs With the Largest Number of Fixed Points
ABSTRACT A symmetric ( v , k , λ )‐design is said to be f‐pyramidal, with f < v − 1, under the action of a group G if G acts as an automorphism group fixing f points and acting sharply transitively on the remaining ones. We show that, necessarily, f ≤ v − 2 ( k − λ ). In particular, for a Hadamard design with parameters ( v , k , λ ) = ( 4 m − 1 , 2 m −

Let \({\mathcal E}\colon N\rightarrowtail G\twoheadrightarrow Q\) be a group extension with coupling \(\chi\colon Q\to\text{Out\,}N\). If \(\Aut\,{\mathcal E}=\{\gamma\in\Aut\,G\mid N^\gamma=N\}\), \(\text{Comp}(\chi)\) the group of all compatible pairs for \(\chi\) and \(A\) the center of \(N\) regarded as a \(Q\)-module via \(\chi\) then it is known [

Flexible varieties and automorphism groups [PDF]
Given an irreducible affine algebraic variety X of dimension n≥2 , we let SAut(X) denote the special automorphism group of X , that is, the subgroup of the full automorphism group Aut(X) generated by all one-parameter unipotent subgroups. We show that

Automorphisms and coverings of Klein surfaces
In this thesis the theory of automorphisms and coverings of compact Klein surfaces is discussed by considering a Klein surface as the orbit space of a non-Euclidean crystallographic group.

The Orbits of Twisted Crossed Cubes
Two vertices u and v in a graph G=(V,E) are in the same orbit if there exists an automorphism ϕ of G such that ϕ(u)=v. The orbit number of a graph G, denoted by Orb(G), is the number of orbits that partition V(G).

On the additive image of zeroth persistent homology
Abstract For a category X$X$ and a finite field F$F$, we study the additive image of the functor H0(−;F)∗:rep(X,Top)→rep(X,VectF)$\operatorname{H}_0(-;F)_* \colon \operatorname{rep}(X, \mathbf {Top}) \rightarrow \operatorname{rep}(X, \mathbf {Vect}_F)$, or equivalently, of the free functor rep(X,Set)→rep(X,VectF)$\operatorname{rep}(X, \mathbf {Set ...

Weakly automorphism invariant modules and essential tightness
While a module is pseudo-injective if and only if it is automorphism-invariant, it was not known whether automorphism-invariant modules are tight. It is shown that weakly automorphism-invariant modules are precisely essentially tight.
