For $\frac12<p<\infty$, $0<q<\infty$ and a certain two-sided doubling weight $\omega$, we characterize those inner functions $\Theta$ for which $$\|\Theta'\|_{A^{p,q}_\omega}^q=\int_0^1 \left(\int_0^{2\pi} |\Theta'(re^{i\theta})|^p…

Generalized bent (gbent) functions from an $n$-variable Boolean space to $\mathbb{Z}_{2^k}$ are central in cryptography and sequence design. Instead of the usual binary decomposition, we introduce a $2^\ell$-adic representation, for $k=\ell…

In this paper, we investigate generalized bent functions (GBFs) from $\mathbb{Z}_3^n$ to $\mathbb{Z}_m$. We show that GBFs exist whenever $3$ divides $m$, while several nonexistence results are obtained when $3\nmid m$. In particular, we…
