Are sharper lower bounds known for these potentials on the sphere?
Fix a positive integer $\ell$. For $x_1,\dotsc,x_n\in S^{d-1}$, Venkov proved that
$$
\sum_{i=1}^n\sum_{j=1}^n(x_i\cdot x_j)^{2\ell}\geq\frac{(2\ell-1)!!(d-2)!!}{(d+2\ell-2)!!}\cdot n^2,
$$
with equal …

Does $(\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z})^2$ ever admit a difference set when $n$ is odd?
A difference set of a group $G$ is a subset $D\subseteq G$ with the property that there exists an integer $\lambda>0$ such that for every non-identity member $g$ of $G$, there exist exactly $\lambda$ …

Resolvable designs from projective space
Resolvable designs are block designs with the additional property that the blocks can be partitioned into partitions of the points. It is easy to see that lines in affine space form a resolvable desi …
