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…

We prove an invariance principle for functions on a slice of the Boolean cube, which is the set of all vectors {0,1}^n with Hamming weight k. Our invariance principle shows that a low-degree, low-influence function has similar distributions…

Strong algebraic proof systems such as IPS (Ideal Proof System; Grochow-Pitassi [GP18]) offer a general model for deriving polynomials in an ideal and refuting unsatisfiable propositional formulas, subsuming most standard propositional…

Let $\Om$ be a Borel subset of $S^\Bbb N$ where $S$ is countable. A measure is called exchangeable on $\Om$, if it is supported on $\Om$ and is invariant under every Borel automorphism of $\Om$ which permutes at most finitely many…

We investigate shift-invariant transformations, also known as rotation-symmetric vectorial Boolean functions, on $n$ bits that are induced from Boolean functions on $k$ bits, for $k\leq n$. We consider such transformations that are not…

We introduce a simply stated conjecture regarding the maximum mutual information a Boolean function can reveal about noisy inputs. Specifically, let $X^n$ be i.i.d. Bernoulli(1/2), and let $Y^n$ be the result of passing $X^n$ through a…

Using unbounded Hilbert space representations basic results on the transition probability of positive linear functionals $f$ and $g$ on a unital *-algebra are obtained. The main assumption is the essential self-adjointness of GNS…

Algebraic and fast algebraic attacks are power tools to analyze stream ciphers. A class of symmetric Boolean functions with maximum algebraic immunity were found vulnerable to fast algebraic attacks at EUROCRYPT'06. Recently, the notion of…

We show that if $f$ is an integer-valued function with spectral norm at most $M$ then there are subspaces $V_1,\dots,V_L$ and signs $\sigma_1,\dots,\sigma_L \in \{-1,1\}$ such that $f=\sigma_1 1_{V_1} + \dots + \sigma_L 1_{V_L}$ where $L <…

Given a Boolean function f, the (Hamming) weight wt(f) and the nonlinearity N(f) are well known to be important in designing functions that are useful in cryptography. The nonlinearity is expensive to compute, in general, so any shortcuts…
