Given the $n$-dimensional Hamming cube $\\{0,1\\}^n$, we study the minimum cardinality of a set $\\mathcal{V}$ of $n$-dimensional $\\{-1,0,1\\}$ vectors, each containing exactly $d$ non-zero entries, such that every point in the Hamming cube has a non-trivial zero dot product with at least one vector $V \\in \\mathcal{V}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-10-01T14:21:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05D05", "05C65", "G.2.1", "G.2.2", "F.2.2" ], "keywords": [ "induced bisecting families", "hypergraphs", "non-trivial zero dot product", "non-zero entries", "dimensional vectors" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
