摘要

We give a new upper bound for the cardinality of a set of equiangular lines in R-n with a fixed common angle theta for each (n, theta) satisfying certain conditions. Our techniques are based on semidefinite programming methods for spherical codes introduced by Bachoc and Vallentin (2008). As a corollary to our bound, we show the nonexistence of spherical tight designs of harmonic index 4 on a sphere in R-n with n >= 3. 2015 Elsevier Ltd.
