In \cite{mccarthy2}, McCarthy defined a function $_{n}G_{n}[\cdots]$ using the Teichm\"{u}ller character of finite fields and quotients of the $p$-adic gamma function. This function extends hypergeometric functions over finite fields to the…

The concatenation of four Boolean bent functions $f=f_1||f_2||f_3||f_4$ is bent if and only if the dual bent condition $f_1^* + f_2^* + f_3^* + f_4^* =1$ is satisfied. However, to specify four bent functions satisfying this duality…

Let $\mathbb{F}_p$ be the finite field of prime order $p$. For any function $f \colon \mathbb{F}_p{}^n \to \mathbb{F}_p$, there exists a unique polynomial over $\mathbb{F}_p$ having degree at most $p-1$ with respect to each variable which…

Suppose that $f: \bR^n\to\bR^n$ is a mapping of $K$-bounded $p$-mean distortion for some $p>n-1$. We prove the equivalence of the following properties of $f$: doubling condition for $J(x,f)$ over big balls centered at origin, boundedness of…

We examine hypergeometric functions in the finite field, p-adic and classical settings. In each setting, we prove a formula which splits the hypergeometric function into a sum of lower order functions whose arguments differ by roots of…

Planar functions are special functions from a finite field to itself that give rise to finite projective planes and other combinatorial objects. We consider polynomials over a finite field $K$ that induce planar functions on infinitely many…
