In this paper we study those bent functions which are linear on elements of spreads, their connections with ovals and line ovals, and we give descriptions of their dual bent functions. In particular, we give a geometric characterization of…
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…
We construct a class of bounded domains, on which the squeezing function is not uniformly bounded from below near a smooth and pseudoconvex boundary point.
We study generalizations of two classical primary constructions of Boolean bent functions, namely the Maiorana-McFarland ($MM$) class and the (Desarguesian) partial spread ($\mathcal{PS}_{ap}$) class. The construction of bent functions…
We introduce an algorithm of joint approximation of a function and its first derivative by alternative orthogonal polynomials on the interval [0,1].The algorithm exhibits properties of shape preserving approximation for the function. A weak…
We construct a new family of groups that is non-contracting and weakly regular branch over the derived subgroup. This gives the first example of an infinite family of groups acting on a $d$-adic tree, with $d \geq 2$, with these properties.
We construct several new classes of transcendental entire functions, f, such that both the escaping set, I(f), and the fast escaping set, A(f), have a structure known as a spider's web. We show that some of these classes have a degree of…
We investigate the problem whether a function of several arguments can be reconstructed from its identification minors. We focus on functions with a unique identification minor, and we establish some positive and negative results on the…

In this paper we explore a connection between certain Almost Perfect Nonlinear Functions (APN functions) and relative difference sets. In particular, we show that the image set of certain 2-to-1 APN functions is a relative difference set.…
The $p$-ary function $f(x)$ mapping $\mathrm{GF}(p^{4k})$ to $\mathrm{GF}(p)$ and given by $f(x)={\rm Tr}_{4k}\big(ax^d+bx^2\big)$ with $a,b\in\mathrm{GF}(p^{4k})$ and $d=p^{3k}+p^{2k}-p^k+1$ is studied with the respect to its exponential…
Linear codes with few weights have been a significant area of research in coding theory for many years, due to their applications in secret sharing schemes, authentication codes, association schemes, and strongly regular graphs. Inspired by…
In this paper, we obtained some inequalities for \phi_{s}-convex function, \phi-Godunova-Levin function, \phi-P-function and log-\phi-convex function. Finally, we defined the class of \phi-quasi-convex functions and we examined some…
We introduce a condition on accretive matrix functions, called $p$-ellipticity, and discuss its applications to the $L^p$ theory of elliptic PDE with complex coefficients. Our examples are: (i) generalized convexity of power functions…
The Walsh transform $\widehat{Q}$ of a quadratic function $Q:F_{p^n}\rightarrow F_p$ satisfies $|\widehat{Q}(b)| \in \{0,p^{\frac{n+s}{2}}\}$ for all $b\in F_{p^n}$, where $0\le s\le n-1$ is an integer depending on $Q$. In this article, we…

Generalisations of the bent property of a boolean function are presented, by proposing spectral analysis with respect to a well-chosen set of local unitary transforms. Quadratic boolean functions are related to simple graphs and it is shown…
