Formulas for the most general case of the zeta function associated to a quadratic+linear+constant form (in {\bf Z}) are given. As examples, the spectral zeta functions $\zeta_\alpha (s)$ corresponding to bosonic ($\alpha =2$) and to…

We consider the equation $\Delta^2 u=g(x,u) \geq 0$ in the sense of distribution in $\Omega'=\Omega\setminus \{0\} $ where $u$ and $ -\Delta u\geq 0.$ Then it is known that $u$ solves $\Delta^2 u=g(x,u)+\alpha \delta_0-\beta \Delta…

Let us consider a family $F(\alpha,\beta,\gamma,\delta)$ of convex quadrangles in the plane with given angles $\{\alpha,\beta,\gamma,\delta\}$ and with the perimeter $2\pi$. Such quadrangle $Q\in F(\alpha,\beta,\gamma,\delta)$ can be…

We study the beta functions for four-dimensional conformal gravity using two different parametrizations of metric fluctuation, linear split and exponential parametrization. We find that after imposing the traceless conditions, the beta…

Two linear recurrences exhibit mirror symmetry connecting the constants $e$ and $\pi$. When parametrized, their asymptotic connection constants extend to meromorphic functions satisfying additive functional equations with rational…

We study a new generalized version of the point pair function defined with a constant $\alpha>0$. We prove that this function is a quasi-metric for all values of $\alpha>0$, and compare it to several hyperbolic-type metrics, such as the…

We show that a family ${\cal F}$ of meromorphic functions in a domain $D$ satisfying $$\frac{|f^{(k)}|}{1+|f^{(j)}|^\alpha}(z)\ge C \qquad \mbox{for all} z\in D \mbox{and all} f\in {\cal F}$$ (where $k$ and $j$ are integers with $k>j\ge 0$…

Power functions with low $c$-differential uniformity have been widely studied not only because of their strong resistance to multiplicative differential attacks, but also low implementation cost in hardware. Furthermore, the…

In this paper, some global existence and uniform asymptotic stability results for fractional functional differential equations are proved. It is worthy mentioning that when $\alpha=1$ the initial value problem (1.1) reduces to a classical…

We obtain a uniform stability of recovering entire functions of a special form from their zeros. To this form, one can reduce the characteristic determinants of strongly regular differential operators and pencils of the first and the second…

A straight-line drawing $\delta$ of a planar graph $G$ need not be plane, but can be made so by \emph{untangling} it, that is, by moving some of the vertices of $G$. Let shift$(G,\delta)$ denote the minimum number of vertices that need to…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ denote the class of analytic functions $f$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:|z|<1\}$ normalized by $f(0)=0$, $f'(0)=1$. In the present article, we obtain the sharp estimates of the Schwarzian norm for…

A balanced graph is a bipartite graph with no induced circuit of length 2 mod 4. These graphs arise in linear programming. We focus on graph-algebraic properties of balanced graphs to prove a complete classification of balanced Cayley…

Consider systems of equations $q_i(x)=0$, where $q_i: {\Bbb R}^n \longrightarrow {\Bbb R}$, $i=1, \ldots, m$, are quadratic forms. Our goal is to tell efficiently systems with many non-trivial solutions or near-solutions $x \ne 0$ from…

Recent innovations on the differential calculus for functions of non-commuting variables, begun for a quaternionic variable, are now extended to the case of a general matrix over the complex numbers. The expansion of F(X+Delta) is given to…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and $\F_q$ be the finite field with $q=p^n$ elements. A planar function $f:\F_q\rightarrow\F_q$ is called homogenous if $f(\lambda x)=\lambda^df(x)$ for all $\lambda\in\F_p$ and $x\in\F_q$, where $d$ is some fixed…

This paper studies the singularities of Cullen-regular functions of one quaternionic variable. The quaternionic Laurent series prove to be Cullen-regular. The singularities of Cullen-regular functions are thus classified as removable,…

We study correlation bounds under pairwise independent distributions for functions with no large Fourier coefficients. Functions in which all Fourier coefficients are bounded by $\delta$ are called $\delta$-{\em uniform}. The search for…

A group valued function on a graph is called balanced if the product of its values along any cycle is equal to the identity element of the group. We compute the number of balanced functions from edges and vertices of a directed graph to a…

Whereas the design and properties of bent and plateaued functions have been frequently addressed during the past few decades, there are only a few design methods of so-called 5-valued spectra Boolean functions whose Walsh spectra takes the…
