1 Basrah Joural of Sciece (A) Vol.34(3), , 216 Miimax arc of kid (, δ ) with weighted poits Mohammed Yousif Abass Basrah Uiversity, College of Sciece, Mathematics Departmet E mail: mohammedyousif42@yahoo.com Abstract I this paper we proved that the existece of ( k, s; f ) arcs of type ( r, s ) i PG( 2, q ); wheq =, derived from a miimax arc Cof kid (, δ ), that is a (( 1)q + 1, ) arc. We fid these ( k, s; f ) arcswhes r = q, as i the table below. We deote by MIN for miimal, MAX for maximal ad X for either miimal or maximal. Summary for = (( 1)q + 1, ) arc. [ q =, > 2 ] Weights 1 1 t 2 of E t 1 1 poits I t W MIN X MAX X MAX MIN X Keywords:projective plae of order q, miimax arcs, (k, ; f) arc of type (m, ), arcs with weighted poits. Itroductio I 1991, the author B. J. Wilso (1) discussed the existece of the miimax arcs i PG(2, q), whe q is a odd prime power. We use the results of (1) ad combiig them with the results of (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) to obtai the miimax arc with weighted poits. Let π be a projective plae of order q, ad deote by P ad R respectively the set of poits ad lies of π. Let f be a fuctio from P ito the set N of o egative itegers, ad call the weight of p P, the value f(p ), ad the support of fthe set of poits of the plae havig o zero weight. Usig f we ca defie the fuctio N F: R such that for ay r Rwe have F(r) = f(p ) p r. We call F(r) the weight of the lie r. Defiitio 2. (3) Defiitio 1. (2) 137

2 Mohammed Yousif Abass Miimax arc of kid (, δ ) with A (k, ; f) arc K i PG(2, q) is a fuctio f P N such that k = The support of f ad = max F. Observe that a (k, ) arck is a (k, ; f ) arc if f is chose by:, ifp K f( p ) = { 1, ifp K. Defiitio3. (3) The type of a (k, ; f) arck is the set of Im F. To write explicitly the type of K we ca use the sequece ( 1,, ρ ) where λ Im F, λ = 1,, ρ ad 1 < 2 < < ρ =. Notatio (i) ω = max f. (ii) [p] deote the set of lies passig through p. Lemma 1. (4) Let K be a (k, ; f ) arc i PG(2, q). The for every poit p we have F(r) = W + qf( p ). r [p] Lemma 2. (4) The weight W of a (k, ; f ) arc of type (m, ) satisfies: m(q + 1) W ( ω)q +. Defiitio 4. (4) We call arcs for which the values i lemma (2) are attaied, maximal ad miimal(k, ; f ) arcs of type (m, ) respectively. Theorem 1. (4) A ecessary coditio for the existece of a (k, ; f) arck of type (m, ), m > is that: (a) q mod( m); (b) ω m ; (c) m 2. Miimax arcs I PG(2, q), where q = is a odd prime power ad > 2, let C deote a (( 1)q + 1, ) arc. Let P C ad suppose that through P there pass ρ i i secat of C for i = 1, 2,,. The coutig lies through P gives ρ 1 + ρ ρ = q + 1 (1) Ad coutig poits of C o lies through P gives ρ 2 + 2ρ ( 1)ρ = ( 1)q.(2) Elimiatig ρ gives 138

3 Basrah Joural of Sciece (A) Vol.34(3), , 216 ( 1)ρ 1 + ( 2)ρ ρ 1 = 1.(3) The maximum value of ρ occurs whe ρ 1 = 1, ρ 2 = = ρ 1 =, ρ = q. Ad the miimum value of ρ occurs whe ρ 1 = ρ 2 = = ρ 2 =, ρ 1 = 1, ρ = q + 2. Defiitio 5. (1) If every poit of C is of oe of the above two types the C is called a mimax arc. The poits of C are called maximum or miimum poits accordigly. Suppose ow that C is a mimax arc havig μ maximum poits ad δ miimum poits. We shall refer to C as a miimax arc of kid (μ, δ ) whe appropriate. The, usig the otatio τ i to deote the umber of i secats of C we have μ + δ = ( 1)q + 1(4) τ 1 = μ(5) τ 1 = δ(6) τ = qμ+(q +2)δ q + μ q2 +q+2μ 2 (7) = q 2 + 3q 1 τ = (q 2 + q + 1) τ 1 τ 1 τ = (1 q μ) + q2 +q+2μ 2 (8) Let Q be a poit ot o C ad suppose that through Q there pass σ i i secats for i =, 1, 1,. The σ + σ 1 + σ 1 + σ = q + 1.(9)ad σ 1 + ( 1)σ 1 + σ = q q + 1.(1) From these we may obtai σ + ( 1)σ 1 + σ 1 = + q 1. (11) Now, suppose that C be of kid(,δ ) i PG( 2, q ) with q =. Through each poit of Care q + 2, secatad 1,( 1) secats. Hece the equatios (4) (8), become: δ = ( 1)q + 1 = ( 1)t +.(12) τ 1 =. (13) τ 1 = δ = ( 1)t +. (14) (q + 2)δ τ = (q + 2)(( 1)t + ) = = (q + 2)(( 1)) = (t + 3)(( 1)),(15) 139

4 Mohammed Yousif Abass Miimax arc of kid (, δ ) with τ = (1 q) + q2 +q 2 (t+1) 2 + t 1 (16) = t = t 2 + 3t t. Sice C be of kid (, δ ), the the equatios (9), (1) ad (11) becomes: σ + σ 1 + σ = t + 2. (17) ( 1)σ 1 + σ = ( 1)t +. (18) σ + σ 1 = + t. (19) From equatio (18) ad (19) we must have σ 1.Let l be a ( 1) secat. l has to meet (τ 1 1 = ( 1)q) other, ( 1) secat. Sice l cotai ( 1) poits of C ad through each poit there pass ( 2) lies differ from l, the it meets ( 1)( 2)lies o Cad ( 1)(q + 2) i its remaiig i ( 1) oes (q + 2) poits. Hece σ 1 = o l \C. Thus the poits ot o Cmay be classified as: Table (1) Sice C = ( 1)q + 1 = 2 t t +. E + I = q 2 + 2q q = 2 t 2 2 t + 4t + 3. From equatio (12.9) of Lemma (12.1)of (9), we have: (q + 1 i)τ i = σ i Q PG(2,q)\C (q + 2)τ 1 = σ 1. Q PG(2,q)\C (q + 2)(( 1)t + ) = σ 1 = E. Q E E = (t + 3)(( 1)t + ). E = (t + 3)(( 1)) = 2 t 2 t 2 2 t + 5t 3t + 3. The I = t 2 t + 3t. A secat meets ( 1),( 1) secats o C ad hece has to meet (τ 1 ( 1)) = (( 1)t + 2), elsewhere i 's. The o a Types σ secat are (( 1)t + 2) E σ 1 σ I poits ad hece q + 1 ( 1) E t (( 1)t + 2) = ( t, I 1)t poits. + O 2 a ( 1) secat are q + 2 = t + 3, E poits. A secat C + E + I = q 2 + q + 1 = 2 t 2 + 3t + 3. has to meet ( 1)q + 1, ( 1) secats i 's ad hece o it are 14

Hece we obtai the followig table: Table (2) F(( 1) secat) F( secat) = (t + 3) β. = (( 1)t + 1) β Lies Poits o C Poits o E + ()α. Poits o I secat (( 1)t + 2) t (i) Let F( secat) = F(( ( 1) secat 1 t + 3 1) secat). The secat ( 1) (( 1)t + 2) β + t α tα = ()β. = (t + 3) β. Miimax arc with weighted poits I this sectio, we discuss (k, ; f ) arc of type (r, s), Im( f ) ={, α, β} where α ad β are determied accordig to the weights of the lies ad Table (2). We will divide this sectio ito three cases ad each case partitio ito three subcases: Case (1): Now, i this case assig weights α to I poits, to poits of C ad β to E poits. Weights of lies are Setα =, β = t. F( secat) = (( 1)t + 2) t + t () = t 2 t + 3t. F(( 1) secat) = (t + 3) t = t 2 t + 3t.
