We obtain new nonexistence results for two classes of generalized bent functions from $\mathbb{Z}_{q}^{n}$ to $\mathbb{Z}_{q}$, called type $[n,q]$ generalized bent functions. The first class concerns the case $q=2 p_1^{e_1} p_2^{e_2}$,…
In this paper we explore a connection between certain Almost Perfect Nonlinear Functions (APN functions) and relative difference sets. In particular, we show that the image set of certain 2-to-1 APN functions is a relative difference set.…
We study vectorial functions with maximal number of bent components in this paper. We first study the Walsh transform and nonlinearity of $F(x)=x^{2^e}h(\Tr_{2^{2m}/2^m}(x))$, where $e\geq0$ and $h(x)$ is a permutation over $\F_{2^m}$. If…
We investigate Bochner integrabilities of generalized Wiener functionals. We further formulate an It\^o formula for a diffusion in a distributional setting, and apply to investigate differentiability-index $s$ and integrability-index $p…
A class of discrete probability distributions contains distributions with limited support, i.e. possible argument values are limited to a set of numbers (typically consecutive). Examples of such data are results from subjective experiments…
We study the nonlinearity of functions defined on a finite field with 2^m elements which are the trace of a polynomial of degree 7 or more general polynomials. We show that for m odd such functions have rather good nonlinearity properties.…
The Walsh--Hadamard spectrum of a bent function uniquely determines a dual function. The dual of a bent function is also bent. A bent function that is equal to its dual is called a self-dual function. The Hamming distance between a bent…
Let $\mathbb{F}_{p^{n}}$ be the finite field with $p^n$ elements and $\operatorname{Tr}(\cdot)$ be the trace function from $\mathbb{F}_{p^{n}}$ to $\mathbb{F}_{p}$, where $p$ is a prime and $n$ is an integer. Inspired by the works of…
The Generalized Bessel Function (GBF) extends the single variable Bessel function to several dimensions and indices in a nontrivial manner. Two-dimensional GBFs have been studied extensively in the literature and have found application in…
In this note we study the error term R_{n,L}(x) in the generalized circle problem for a ball of volume x and a random lattice L of large dimension n. Our main result is the following functional central limit theorem: Fix an arbitrary…
In this paper, we study the dual of generalized bent functions $f: V_{n}\rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_{p^k}$ where $V_{n}$ is an $n$-dimensional vector space over $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ and $p$ is an odd prime, $k$ is a positive integer. It is known…
We show (almost) separation between certain important classes of Boolean functions. The technique that we use is to show that the total influence of functions in one class is less than the total influence of functions in the other class. In…
On the basis of the deformed series in quantum calculus, we generalize the partition function and the mass exponent of a multifractal, as well as the average of a random variable distributed over self-similar set. For the partition…
We present a new integral transform called the Generalized Borel Transform (GBT) and show how to use it to compute some distribution functions used to describe the statistico-mechanical behavior of macromolecules. For this purpose, we…
A Boolean function $f$ on $n$ variables is said to be a bent function if the absolute value of all its Walsh coefficients is $2^{n/2}$. Our main result is a new asymptotic lower bound on the number of Boolean bent functions. It is based on…
