Difference set: History, Applications, Measurement & Products

In combinatorics, a ( v , k , λ ) {\displaystyle (v,k,\lambda )} difference set is a subset D {\displaystyle D} of size k {\displaystyle k} of a group G {\displaystyle G} of order v {\displaystyle v} such that every non-identity element of G {\displaystyle G} can be expressed as a product d 1 d 2 − 1 {\displaystyle d_{1}d_{2}^{-1}} of elements of D…
