A family of skew Hadamard difference sets

TL;DR: A family of new perfect nonlinear functions are presented, and it is shown that some of the skew Hadamard difference sets presented in this paper are inequivalent to the Paley-Hadamards difference sets.

A Unifying Construction for Difference Sets

TL;DR: A recursive construction for difference sets is presented which unifies the Hadamard, McFarland, and Spence parameter families and deals with all abelian groups known to contain such difference sets.

On non-existence of perfect and nearly perfect sequences

TL;DR: The complex p-ary perfect and nearly perfect sequences where p is an odd prime are studied and it is shown that the existence of such sequences is equivalent to theexistence of certain kinds of difference sets.

New nearly optimal codebooks from relative difference sets

TL;DR: A general connection between complex codebooks andrelative difference sets is introduced and several classes of codebooks nearly meeting the Welch bound are constructed from some known relative difference sets using the general connection.
