Partial difference sets ...(υ,k,α,β)-partial difference set in a finite group G of order υ is a subset D of G with k distinct elements such that expressions dnd−12 for d1 and d2 in D, represent each non-identity element not contained in D exactly α times and each non-identity element contained in D exactly α+β times....
M.: duplication of constants in process algebraThe constant 0 (or δ, nil) has different roles in process algebra: on the one hand, it serves as the identity element of alternative composition, on the other hand, it stands for a blocked atomic action or for livelock....
