Equiangular lines in \({\mathbb{C}}^r\) (Q5935898)

In the complex projective space the study of \(F\)-regular subsets is important for the distance geometry in this space.NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEThe author investigates the following problems: For all positive integers \(r\), find the integers \(n\) such that in the complex projective space \(CP^{r-1}\) (with used metric) there exists an \(F\)-regular \(n\)-tuple with zero shape invariant. What is the distance of such \(n\)-tuples? What is the maximum \(n(r)\) for any given \(r\)?NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEThis problem was solved by the author for the cases \(r=2\) and \(r=3\) in his thesis (Mulhouse 1994) and in [Geom. Dedicata 63, 297-308 (1996; Zbl 0869.51010)]; it is \(n(2)= n(3)= 4\).NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEIn this paper is given a result for a set of positive integers \(r\) with \(n(r)= 2r\). It is proved that \(r+1\leq n(r)\leq 2r\) for any \(r\) and \(n(2^k) = 2^{k+1}\) for any integer \(k\).
