On tight Euclidean $6$-designs: an experimental result

Published 9 Dec 2010 in math.CO | (1012.1946v1)

Abstract: A finite set $X \seq \RRn$ with a weight function $w : X \longrightarrow \RR_{>0}$ is called \emph{Euclidean $t$-design} in $\RRn$ (supported by $p$ concentric spheres) if the following condition holds: [ \sum_{i=1}p \frac{w(X_i)}{|S_i|}\int_{S_i} f(\boldsymbol x)d\sigma_i(\boldsymbol x) =\sum_{\boldsymbol x \in X}w(\boldsymbol x) f(\boldsymbol x), ] for any polynomial $f(\boldsymbol x) \in \mbox{Pol}(\RRn)$ of degree at most $t$. Here $S_i \seq \RRn$ is a sphere of radius $r_i \geq 0,$ $X_i=X \cap S_i,$ and $\sigma_i(\boldsymbol x)$ is an $O(n)$-invariant measure on $S_i$ such that $|S_i|=r_i{n-1}|S{n-1}|$, with $|S_i|$ is the surface area of $S_i$ and $|S{n-1}|$ is a surface area of the unit sphere in $\RRn$. Recently, Bajnok (2006) constructed tight Euclidean $t$-designs in the plane ($n=2$) for arbitrary $t$ and $p.$ In this paper we show that for case $t=6$ and $p=2,$ tight Euclidean $6$-designs constructed by Bajnok is the unique configuration in $\RRn$, for $2 \leq n \leq 8.$
