We provide some applications of a polynomial criterion for difference sets. These include counting the difference sets with specified parameters in terms of Hilbert functions, in particular a count of bent functions. We also consider the…
We extend the classical Bernstein inequality to a general setting including Schr{\"o}dinger operators and divergence form elliptic operators on Riemannian manifolds or domains. Moreover , we prove a new reverse inequality that can be seen…
On the one hand, it is well known that the only subquadratic Dehn function of finitely presented groups is the linear one. On the other hand there is a huge class of Dehn functions $d(n)$ with growth at least $n^4$ (essentially all possible…
The $S$-functional calculus for slice hyperholomorphic functions generalizes the Riesz-Dunford-functional calculus for holomorphic functions to quaternionic linear operators and to $n$-tuples of noncommuting operators. For an unbounded…
Quasisymmetric functions in superspace were introduced as a natural extension of classical quasisymmetric functions involving both commuting and anticommuting variables. In this paper, we first provide a characterization of the algebra of…
Bent functions are Boolean functions that are maximally nonlinear. They can be represented as bent squares, i.e., square matrices for which each row and each column is the Walsh spectrum of a Boolean function. Using this representation, it…
In this paper we shall use realization theory to prove new results about a class of holomorphic functions on an annulus \[R_\delta \stackrel{\rm def}{=} \{z \in \mathbb{C}: \delta <|z|<1\},\] where $0<\delta<1$. The class of functions in…
In the present paper we introduce the class of slice-polynomial functions: slice regular functions {defined over the quaternions, outside the real axis,} whose restriction to any complex half-plane is a polynomial. These functions naturally…
In this paper, we introduce a new class of polynomials, called probabilistic q-Bernstein polynomials, alongside their generating function. Assuming Y is a random variable satisfying moment conditions, we use the generating function of these…
The Walsh transform $\widehat{Q}$ of a quadratic function $Q:F_{p^n}\rightarrow F_p$ satisfies $|\widehat{Q}(b)| \in \{0,p^{\frac{n+s}{2}}\}$ for all $b\in F_{p^n}$, where $0\le s\le n-1$ is an integer depending on $Q$. In this article, we…
Planar functions in odd characteristic were introduced by Dembowski and Ostrom in order to construct finite projective planes in 1968. They were also used in the constructions of DES-like iterated ciphers, error-correcting codes, and signal…
An extension of the method and results of A. Schwarz for evaluating the partition function of a quadratic functional is presented. This enables the partition functions to be evaluated for a wide class of quadratic functionals of interest in…
Boolean functions with few-valued spectra have wide applications in cryptography, coding theory, sequence designs, etc. In this paper, we further study the parametric construction approach to obtain balanced Boolean functions using…
We study the complexity classes P and NP through a semigroup fP ("polynomial-time functions"), consisting of all polynomially balanced polynomial-time computable partial functions. Then P is not equal to NP iff fP is a non-regular…
Planar functions, introduced by Dembowski and Ostrom, have attracted much attention in the last decade. As shown in this paper, we present a new class of planar functions of the form $\operatorname{Tr}(ax^{q+1})+\ell(x^2)$ on an extension…
The aim of this paper is to introduce the $H^\infty$-functional calculus for harmonic functions over the quaternions. More precisely, we give meaning to Df(T) for unbounded sectorial operators T and polynomially growing functions of the…
The ring of symmetric functions occupies a central place in algebraic combinatorics, with a particularly notable role in Schubert calculus, where the standard cell decompositions of Grassmannians yield the celebrated family of Schur…
Specific vectorial boolean functions, such as S-Boxes or APN functions have many applications, for instance in symmetric ciphers. In cryptography they must satisfy some criteria (balancedness, high nonlinearity, high algebraic degree,…
This report (written in French) is devoted to studying special functions the most used in physics. Special functions are a very broad branch of mathematics, theoretical physics, and mathematical physics. They appeared in the nineteenth…
