Let $\cD$ be the Dirichlet space, namely the space of holomorphic functions on the unit disk whose derivative is square-integrable. We establish a new sufficient condition for a function $f\in\cD$ to be {\em cyclic}, i.e. for $\{pf:…

Let x be a random vector coming from any k-wise independent distribution over {-1,1}^n. For an n-variate degree-2 polynomial p, we prove that E[sgn(p(x))] is determined up to an additive epsilon for k = poly(1/epsilon). This answers an open…

In a finite undirected simple graph, a chordless cycle is an induced subgraph which is a cycle. A graph is called cyclically orientable if it admits an orientation in which every chordless cycle is cyclically oriented. We propose an…

A Boolean function $f:\{0,1\}^n\to \{0,1\}$ is $k$-linear if it returns the sum (over the binary field $F_2$) of $k$ coordinates of the input. In this paper, we study property testing of the classes $k$-Linear, the class of all $k$-linear…

Let $D(\mu)$ denote a harmonically weighted Dirichlet space on the unit disc $\mathbb D$. We show that outer functions $f\in D(\mu)$ are cyclic in $D(\mu)$, whenever $\log f$ belongs to the Pick-Smirnov class $N^+(D(\mu))$. If $f$ has…
