We extend the well-known Shannon decomposition of Boolean functions to more general classes of functions. Such decompositions, which we call pivotal decompositions, express the fact that every unary section of a function only depends upon…

Let $\ell$ be an odd prime, $q$ an odd prime power such that $q \not\equiv 0 \pmod \ell$, and $m$ the order of $q$ in $\F_\ell^\times$. We propose an explicit $L$-polynomial of hyperelliptic function field $K:=\F_q(T,…

We say that a formal power series $\sum a_n z^n$ with rational coefficients is a 2-function if the numerator of the fraction $a_{n/p}-p^2 a_n$ is divisible by $p^2$ for every prime number $p$. One can prove that 2-functions with rational…

It is known that infinitely many number fields and function fields of any degree $m$ have class number divisible by a given integer $n$. However, significantly less is known about the indivisibility of class numbers of such fields. While…

We introduce a new concept, the APN-defect, which can be thought of as measuring the distance of a given function $G:\mathbb{F}_{2^n} \rightarrow \mathbb{F}_{2^n}$ to the set of almost perfect nonlinear (APN) functions. This concept is…

A rational function is the ratio of two complex polynomials in one variable without common roots. Its degree is the maximum of the degrees of the numerator and the denominator. Rational functions belong to the same class if one turns into…

The purpose of this paper is to detail the article of Carlet. Along the way I recall some interesting results in the theory of finite fields, I give (new) proofs of some known results, and then I generalize the construction of a family of…

For the Hamming graph $H(n,q)$, where a $q$ is a constant prime power and $n$ grows, we construct perfect colorings without non-essential arguments such that $n$ depends exponentially on the off-diagonal part of the quotient matrix. In…

We define two-parameter families of noncommutative symmetric functions and quasi-symmetric functions, which appear to be the proper analogues of the Macdonald symmetric functions in these settings.

This paper explores a class of rational functions r(s(z)) with degree mn, where s(z) is a polynomial of degree m. Inequalities are derived for rational functions with specified poles, extending and refining previous results in the eld.
