Upper and lower quantum functionals, introduced by Christandl, Vrana and Zuiddam (STOC 2018, J. Amer. Math. Soc. 2023), are families of monotone functions of tensors indexed by a weighting on the set of subsets of the tensor legs. Inspired…
It is observed that certain convex envelopes of Wightman type functionals corresponding to scalar, stochastically positive quantum fields consist of Wightman type functionals only .This leads to the construction of a large classes of not…
The problem of understanding whether two given function fields are isomorphic is well-known to be difficult, particularly when the aim is to prove that an isomorphism does not exist. In this paper we investigate a family of maximal function…
We analyze two sets of specific functions, that/which form the basis of the nonpower asymptotic expansions both in the timelike and spacelike regions for single scale dependent QCD observables in the Shirkov--Solovtsov's Analytic…
We present an infinite family of quadratic APN functions on a finite field of dimension over GF(2) divisible by 3.
In this paper, several new classes of Boolean functions with few Walsh transform values, including bent, semi-bent and five-valued functions, are obtained by adding the product of two or three linear functions to some known bent…
We propose an exactly solvable Hamiltonian for topological phases in $3+1$ dimensions utilising ideas from higher lattice gauge theory, where the gauge symmetry is given by a finite 2-group. We explicitly show that the model is a…
Let $F$ be a function from $\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$ to itself and $\delta$ a positive integer. $F$ is called zero-difference $\delta$-balanced if the equation $F(x+a)-F(x)=0$ has exactly $\delta$ solutions for all non-zero $a\in\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$.…
We study the 3-point functions of gauge-invariant scalar operators in four dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal quiver theories using supersymmetric localization in the planar limit of a large number of colors. By exploiting a web of…
Let $F$ be a finite field, let $f$ be a function from $F$ to $F$, and let $a$ be a nonzero element of $F$. The discrete derivative of $f$ in direction $a$ is $\Delta_a f \colon F \to F$ with $(\Delta_a f)(x)=f(x+a)-f(x)$. The differential…
This paper surveys the connection between the elliptic curve E_D: x^3 + y^3 = D and a certain metaplectic form on the cubic cover of GL(3) which has the property that its m,n^{th} Whittaker--Fourier coefficient is essentially the L--series…
The two linearly independent solutions of the three-term recurrence relation of the associated Askey-Wilson polynomials, found by Ismail and Rahman in [22], are slightly modified so as to make it transparent that these functions satisfy a…
In this note, we consider function fields of higher-dimensional algebraic varieties defined over non-local fields, and show how the Galois action on the cohomology such function fields can be used to parameterize their divisorial…
Planar functions over finite fields give rise to finite projective planes and other combinatorial objects. They were originally defined only in odd characteristic, but recently Zhou introduced a definition in even characteristic which…
Inspired by a recent work of Mesnager, we present several new infinite families of quadratic ternary bent, near-bent and 2-plateaued functions from some known quadratic ternary bent functions. Meanwhile, the distribution of the Walsh…
We generalise our previous results of universal linear manipulations [Phys. Rev. A63, 032304 (2001)] to investigate three types of nonlinear qubit transformations using measurement and quantum based schemes. Firstly, nonlinear rotations are…
False theta functions are functions that are closely related to classical theta functions and mock theta functions. In this paper, we study their modular properties at all ranks by forming modular completions analogous to modular…
This paper finds for all orthogonal algebras (i.e. the B and D series) all modular invariant 1-loop partition functions at levels 1,2,3. Previously, only those at level 1 were classified. An extraordinary number of exceptionals appear at…
Covariant, self-interacting scalar quantum field theories admit solutions for low enough spacetime dimensions, but when additional divergences appear in higher dimensions, the traditional approach leads to results, such as triviality, that…
It is known that characters of BPS representations of extended superconformal algebras do not have good modular properties due to extra singular vectors coming from the BPS condition. In order to improve their modular properties we apply…
