We say that an algebraic group $G$ over a field is anti-affine if every regular function on $G$ is constant. We obtain a classification of these groups, with applications to the structure of algebraic groups in positive characteristics, and…

A set of quasi-uniform random variables $X_1,...,X_n$ may be generated from a finite group $G$ and $n$ of its subgroups, with the corresponding entropic vector depending on the subgroup structure of $G$. It is known that the set of entropic…

Let $G$ and $H$ be groups that act compatibly on each other. We denote by $[G,H]$ the derivative subgroup of $G$ under $H$. We prove that if the set $\{g^{-1}g^h \mid g \in G, h \in H\}$ has $m$ elements, then the derivative $[G,H]$ is…

In 2007, Carlet and Ding introduced two parameters, denoted by $Nb_F$ and $NB_F$, quantifying respectively the balancedness of general functions $F$ between finite Abelian groups and the (global) balancedness of their derivatives $D_a…

This paper is concerned with the topological space of normalized quaternion-valued positive definite functions on an arbitrary abelian group G, especially its convex characteristics. There are two main results. Firstly, we prove that the…

It is well-known that degree two finite field extensions can be equipped with a Hermitian-like structure similar to the extension of the complex field over the reals. In this contribution, using this structure, we develop a modular…

In this paper, we explore Fourier analysis for noncommutative $L_p$ space-valued functions on $G$, where $G$ is a totally disconnected non-abelian compact group. By additionally assuming that the value of these functions remains invariant…

For a semisimple real Lie group $G$ with an irreducible representation $\rho$ on a finite-dimensional real vector space $V$, we give a sufficient criterion on $\rho$ for existence of a group of affine transformations of $V$ whose linear…

We observe that for a large class of non-amenable groups $G$, one can find bounded representations of $A(G)$ on Hilbert space which are not completely bounded. We also consider restriction algebras obtained from $A(G)$, equipped with the…

In a recent survey, Schmidt compiled equivalences between generalized bent functions, group invariant Butson Hadamard matrices, and abelian splitting relative difference sets. We establish a broader network of equivalences by considering…

Let p be a prime. A p-adic functional on a torsion-free abelian group G is a group homomorphism from G to the p-adic integers. The group of all such p-adic functionals is viewed as a p-adic dual group of G, and is studied from the point of…

We say a group is finitely annihilated if it is the set-theoretic union of all its proper normal finite index subgroups. We investigate this new property, and observe that it is independent of several other well known group properties. For…

For each non-constant Boolean function $q$, Klapper introduced the notion of $q$-transforms of Boolean functions. The {\em $q$-transform} of a Boolean function $f$ is related to the Hamming distances from $f$ to the functions obtainable…

Let $G$ be a finite group acting on $\mathbb{C}^N$. We study the problem of identifyng the class in $\mathbb{C}^N / G$ of a given signal: this encompasses several types of problems in signal processing. Some instances include certain…

In the paper we introduce a new family of "small" sets which is tightly connected with two well known $\sigma$-ideals: of Haar-null sets and of Haar-meager sets. We define a subset $A$ of a topological group $X$ to be…

A group is called metahamiltonian if all non-abelian subgroups of it are normal. This concept is a natural generalization of Hamiltonian groups. In this paper, the properties of finite metahamiltonian $p$-groups are investigated.

In this paper, two new classes of perfect nonlinear functions over $\mathbb{F}_{p^{2m}}$ are proposed, where $p$ is an odd prime. Furthermore, we investigate the nucleus of the corresponding semifields of these functions and show that the…

For each non-constant $q$ in the set of $n$-variable Boolean functions, the {\em $q$-transform} of a Boolean function $f$ is related to the Hamming distances from $f$ to the functions obtainable from $q$ by nonsingular linear change of…

A gain graph is a triple (G,h,H), where G is a connected graph with an arbitrary, but fixed, orientation of edges, H is a group, and h is a homomorphism from the free group on the edges of G to H. A gain graph is called balanced if the…

We study Fourier-sparse Boolean functions over general finite Abelian groups. A Boolean function $f : G \to \{-1,+1\}$ is $s$-sparse if it has at most $s$ non-zero Fourier coefficients. We introduce a general notion of granularity of…
