On n–Fold Blocking Sets
1986
An n-fold blocking set is a set of n-disjoint blocking sets. We shall prove upper and lower bounds for the number of components in an n-fold blocking set in projective and affine spaces.

Steiner systems and configurations of points
2020
AbstractThe aim of this paper is to make a connection between design theory and algebraic geometry/commutative algebra. In particular, given any Steiner SystemS(t, n, v) we associate two ideals, in a suitable polynomial ring, defining a Steiner configuration of points and its Complement. We focus on the latter, studying its homological invariants, such as Hilbert Function and Betti numbers. We also study symbolic and regular powers associated to the ideal defining a Complement of a Steiner configuration of points, finding its Waldschmidt constant, regularity, bounds on its resurgence and asymptotic resurgence. We also compute the parameters of linear codes associated to any Steiner configur…
An algebraic representation of Steiner triple systems of order 13
2021
Abstract In this paper we construct an incidence structure isomorphic to a Steiner triple system of order 13 by defining a set B of twentysix vectors in the 13-dimensional vector space V = GF ( 5 ) 13 , with the property that there exist precisely thirteen 6-subsets of B whose elements sum up to zero in V , which can also be characterized as the intersections of B with thirteen linear hyperplanes of V .
