On the cycle indices of frobenious groups
Munywoki, Michael; Kamuti, Ireri; Kivunge, Benard
There are several very useful formulas, which give the cycle
indices of
the binary operation of the sum, product, composition and po
wer group of
M
and
H
in terms of cycle indices of
M
and
H
. One very useful binary operation on groups,
which has not been exploited, is the semidirect product.
Suppose
G
=
M
⋊
H
, a semi direct product; the question is: how can we express
the cycle index of G in terms of the cycle indices of
M
and
H
? This work partially
answers this question by considering the cycle indices of so
me particularly semidirect
product groups; namely – Frobenious groups

This paper discusses some major limitations in the code and shows how error detection and correction
capabilities affected the total dictionary on the code.
The paper then shows the great need that lead to the

Subloops of sedenions
Kivunge, Benard M; Smith, Jonathan D. H
This note investigates sedenion multiplication from the st
andpoint of loop the-
ory. New two-sided loops are obtained within the version of t
he sedenions introduced by
the second author. Conditions are given for the satisfactio
n of standard loop-theoretical
identities within these loops.
