The special case of the hypergeometric function $_{2}F_{1}$ represents the binomial series $(1+x)^{\alpha}=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}(\:\alpha n\:)x^{n}$ that always converges when $|x|<1$. Convergence of the series at the endpoints, $x=\pm 1$,…

We describe in this short note a technique to convert an implicit surface into a Signed Distance Function (SDF) while exactly preserving the zero level-set of the implicit. The proposed approach relies on embedding the input implicit in the…

We consider the averages of a function $ f$ on $ \mathbb R ^{n}$ over spheres of radius $ 0< r< \infty $ given by $ A_{r} f (x) = \int_{\mathbb S ^{n-1}} f (x-r y) \; d \sigma (y)$, where $ \sigma $ is the normalized rotation invariant…

The goal of this expository article is a fairly self-contained account of some averaging processes of functions along sequences of the form $(\alpha^n x)^{}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$, where $\alpha$ is a fixed real number with $| \alpha | > 1$ and…

Fix an integer $h \geq 2$, and let $b_1, \ldots, b_h$ be (not necessarily distinct) positive integers with $\gcd(b_1, \ldots, b_h) = 1$. For any subset $A \subseteq \mathbb{N}$, let $r_A(n)$ denote the number of solutions $(k_1, \ldots,…

Given a finite number of samples of a continuous set-valued function F, mapping an interval to non-empty compact subsets of $\mathbb{R}^d$, $F: [a,b] \to K(\mathbb{R}^d)$, we discuss the problem of computing good approximations of F. We…

In the literature, few $n$-variable rotation symmetric bent functions have been constructed. In this paper, we present two infinite classes of rotation symmetric bent functions on $\mathbb{F}_2^{n}$ of the two forms: {\rm (i)}…

A real valued function $f$ defined on a real open interval $I$ is called $\Phi$-convex if, for all $x,y\in I$, $t\in[0,1]$ it satisfies $$ f(tx+(1-t)y)\leq tf(x)+(1-t)f(y)+t\Phi\big((1-t)|x-y|\big)+(1-t)\Phi\big(t|x-y|\big), $$ where…

We study one class of continuous functions $f$ defined on segment $[0,1]$ by equality $$ f(x)=\delta_{\alpha_1(x)1}+\sum^{\infty}_{k=2}\left[\delta_{\alpha_k(x)k}\prod^{k-1}_{j=1}g_{\alpha_j…

We study lower bounds for dyadic square functions of indicator functions. In the case of the dyadic square function $S_{2}$ we obtain a sharp lower bound: for every measurable $A \subset {[0,1)}$, we have \[…

In this paper, given a topological space $X$, an interval $I\subseteq {\bf R}$ and five continuous functions $\varphi, \psi, \omega :X\to {\bf R}$, $\alpha, \beta:I\to {\bf R}$, we are interested in the infimum of the function $\Phi:X\to…

All groups under consideration are finite. Let $\sigma =\{\sigma_i \mid i\in I \}$ be some partition of the set of $\mathbb{P}$, $G$ be a group, and $\mathfrak F$ be a class of groups. Then $\sigma (G)=\{\sigma_i\mid \sigma_i\cap \pi (G)\ne…

For an analytic and univalent function $f$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}:=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:|z|<1\}$ with the normalization $f(0)=0=f'(0)-1$, the logarithmic coefficients $\gamma_n$ are defined by $\log \frac{f(z)}{z}= 2\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}…

We prove that functions $f:\f{2^m} \to \f{2^m}$ of the form $f(x)=x^{-1}+g(x)$ where $g$ is any non-affine polynomial are APN on at most a finite number of fields $\f{2^m}$. Furthermore we prove that when the degree of $g$ is less then 7…

Let $M$ be a square-free integer and let $P$ be a prime not dividing $M$ such that $P \sim M^\eta$ with $0<\eta<2/21$. We prove subconvexity bounds for $L(\tfrac{1}{2}, f \otimes g)$ when $f$ and $g$ are two primitive holomorphic cusp forms…

We consider the amusing sequence of functions $f_n: \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ given by $$ f_n(x) = \sum_{k=1}^{n}{\frac{|\sin{(k \pi x)}|}{k}}.$$ Every rational point is eventually the location of a strict local minimum of $f_n$:…

We consider ergodic series of the form $\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n f(T^n x)$ where $f$ is an integrable function with zero mean value with respect to a $T$-invariant measure $\mu$. Under certain conditions on the dynamical system $T$, the…

Let $(r_k)$ be an increasing sequence and $(w_k)$ a positive sequence. We study the following question: is it true that for every sequence $(a_k)$ satisfying $\sum_{k=0}^\infty |a_k|^2 w_k^2 < \infty$ there exists a function $f\in…

For a fixed integer $k\ge 3$ and fixed $1/2 < \sigma > 1$ we consider $$ \int_1^T |\zeta(\sigma + it)|^{2k}dt = \sum_{n=1}^\infty d_k^2(n)n^{-2\sigma}T + R(k,\sigma;T), $$ where $R(k,\sigma;T) = o(T) (T\to\infty)$ is the error term in the…
