A further look into combinatorial orthogonality
Strongly quadrangular matrices have been introduced in the study of the
combinatorial properties of unitary matrices. It is known that if a (0,
1)-matrix supports a unitary then it is strongly quadrangular. However, the
converse is not necessarily true. In this paper, we fully classify strongly
quadrangular matrices up to degree 5. We prove that the smallest strongly
quadrangular matrices which do not support unitaries have exactly degree 5.
Further, we isolate two submatrices not allowing a (0, 1)-matrix to support
unitaries.Comment: 11 pages, some typos are corrected. To appear in The Electronic

Structure theorem of square complex orthogonal design
Square COD (complex orthogonal design) with size is an matrix , where each entry is a complex linear combination of
and their conjugations , , such that
. Closely
following the work of Hottinen and Tirkkonen, which proved an upper bound of
by making a crucial observation between square COD and group
representation, we prove the structure theorem of square COD
Transfer Matrix Analysis of the Unidirectional Grating-Assisted Codirectional Coupler
The unidirectional grating-assisted codirectional coupler (U-GACC) has recently been proposed. This unique structure permits irreversible coupling between orthogonal waveguide eigenmodes by means of simultaneous modulation of both the real and imaginary parts of the refractive index in the coupling region. Analysis of the U-GACC has until now relied on coupled mode theory, which can be restrictive in its application as a design tool. We analyze the U-GACC by the transfer matrix method, which demonstrates in a simple fashion why the device operates in a unidirectional manner. In addition, we show that for all practical designs, there is a limit to the minimum cross talk between outputs, a phenomenon that has not been previously identified
The history of degenerate (bipartite) extremal graph problems
This paper is a survey on Extremal Graph Theory, primarily focusing on the
case when one of the excluded graphs is bipartite. On one hand we give an
introduction to this field and also describe many important results, methods,
problems, and constructions.Comment: 97 pages, 11 figures, many problems. This is the preliminary version
of our survey presented in Erdos 100. In this version 2 only a citation was
