The Fourier Entropy-Influence (FEI) Conjecture of Friedgut and Kalai states that ${\bf H}[f] \leq C \cdot {\bf I}[f]$ holds for every Boolean function $f$, where ${\bf H}[f]$ denotes the spectral entropy of $f$, ${\bf I}[f]$ is its total…
We study approximation by arbitrary linear combinations of $n$ translates of a single function of periodic functions. We construct some methods of this approximation for functions in a class induced by the convolution with a given function,…

This manuscript includes some classical results we select apart from the new results we've found on the Analysis of Boolean Functions and Fourier-Entropy-Influence conjecture. We try to ensure the self-completeness of this work so that…
It is a well-known fact that Riemann Hypothesis will follows if the function identically equal to -1 can be arbitrarily approximated in the norm $\norma{.}$ of $L^{2}([0,1],dx)$ by functions of the form $f(x)=\sum_{k=1}^{n}a_{k}…
Fourier extension is an approximation method that alleviates the periodicity requirements of Fourier series and avoids the Gibbs phenomenon when approximating functions. We describe a similar extension approach using regular wavelet bases…

Several recent works [DHLNSY25, CPPS25a, CPPS25b] have studied a model of property testing of Boolean functions under a \emph{relative-error} criterion. In this model, the distance from a target function $f: \{0,1\}^n \to \{0,1\}$ that is…
We show examples of total Boolean functions that depend on $n$ variables and have spectral sensitivity $\Theta(\sqrt{\log n})$, which is asymptotically minimal. Our main new function combines the Hamming code with the Boolean address…
Among other things, we prove that, for a doubling weight $w$, $0< p\leq\infty$, $r\in{\mathbb N}_0$, and $0<\alpha <r+1 - 1/\lambda_p$, we have \[ E_n(f)_{p, w_n} = O(n^{-\alpha}) \iff \omega_\varphi^{r+1}(f, n^{-1})_{p, w_n} =…
We consider the problem of computing the partition function $\sum_x e^{f(x)}$, where $f: \{-1, 1\}^n \longrightarrow {\Bbb R}$ is a quadratic or cubic polynomial on the Boolean cube $\{-1, 1\}^n$. In the case of a quadratic polynomial $f$,…

A celebrated theorem of Friedgut says that every function $f:\{0,1\}^n \to \{0,1\}$ can be approximated by a function $g:\{0,1\}^n \to \{0,1\}$ with $\|f-g\|_2^2 \le \epsilon$ which depends only on $e^{O(I_f/\epsilon)}$ variables where…
Let $\varepsilon >0$. Let $f$ be a Steinhaus or Rademacher random multiplicative function. We prove that we have almost surely, as $x \to +\infty$, $$ \sum_{n \leqslant x} f(n) \ll \sqrt{x} (\log_2 x)^{\frac{3}{4}+ \varepsilon}. $$
