Abstract

Splitter sets have been widely studied due to their applications in flash memories, and their close relations with lattice tilings and conflict avoiding codes. In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of nonsingular perfect splitter sets, ${B}[-{k}_{1},{k}_{2}]({p})$ sets, where \le {k}_{1}\leq {k}_{2}=4$. Meanwhile, constructions of nonsingular perfect splitter sets are given. When perfect splitter sets do not exist, we present four new constructions of quasi-perfect splitter sets. Finally, we give a connection between nonsingular splitter sets and Cayley graphs, and as a byproduct, a general lower bound on the maximum size of nonsingular splitter sets is given.
