We prove that for a large class of functions $P$ and $Q$, there exists $d\in (0,1)$ such that the discrete bilinear Radon transform $$B^{\rm dis}_{P,Q}(f,g)(n)=\sum_{m\in\mathbb{Z}\setminus\{0\}} f(n-P(m))g(n-Q(m))\frac{1}{m}$$ is bounded…
Characteristic functions contain complete information about all the moments of a classical distribution and the same holds for the Fourier transform of the Wigner function: a quantum characteristic function, or the chord function. However,…
Let $q=2^e$ with $e$ even, and let $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ be the finite field of order $q^2$. Put $d=(q^2+q+1)/3$, and consider the permutation polynomial $$\sigma(X)=X+X^d+X^{dq}\in\mathbb{F}_{q^2}[X].$$ For $\alpha\in\mathbb{F}_q^*$, define…
Let $f(x)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n!}q^{n(n-1)/2}x^n$ ($0<q<1$) be the deformed exponential function. It is known that the zeros of $f(x)$ are real and form a negative decreasing sequence $(x_k)$ ($k\ge 1$). We investigate the complete…
Motivated by applications in number theory, analysis, and fractal geometry, we consider regularity properties and dimensions of graphs associated with Fourier series of the form $F(t)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty f(n)e^{2\pi i nt}/n$, for a large…
The (low soundness) linearity testing problem for the middle slice of the Boolean cube is as follows. Let $\varepsilon>0$ and $f$ be a function on the middle slice on the Boolean cube, such that when choosing a uniformly random quadruple…
For fixed natural numbers $r$ and $s$, where $2\leq s \leq r$, we consider a representation of numbers from the interval $[0;\frac{r}{s-1}]$ obtained by encoding numbers by means of the alphabet $A=\{0,1,...,r\}$ via the expansion…
The Bloch-Landau Theorem is one of the basic results in the geometric theory of holomorphic functions. It establishes that the image of the open unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ under a holomorphic function $f$ (such that $f(0)=0$ and $f'(0)=1$)…
We investigate properties of some spherical fonctions defined on hyperbolic groups using boundary representations on the Gromov boundary endowed with the Patterson-Sullivan measure class. We prove sharp decay estimates for spherical…
We establish power Fourier decay for equilibrium states of parabolic $C^{1+\alpha}$ iterated function systems with overlaps satisfying a multiscale nonlinearity condition. This class includes the Lyons conductance measures $\nu_t$, $0<t<1$,…
The Friedgut-Kalai-Naor (FKN) theorem states that if $f$ is a Boolean function on the Boolean cube which is close to degree 1, then $f$ is close to a dictator, a function depending on a single coordinate. The author has extended the theorem…
Let F be a class of functions with the uniqueness property: if a function f in F vanishes on a set of positive measure, then f is the zero function. In many instances, we would like to have a quantitative version of this property, e.g. a…
A key fact in the theory of Boolean functions $f : \{0,1\}^n \to \{0,1\}$ is that they often undergo sharp thresholds. For example: if the function $f : \{0,1\}^n \to \{0,1\}$ is monotone and symmetric under a transitive action with…
A Boolean network is a function $f:\{0,1\}^n\to\{0,1\}^n$ from which several dynamics can be derived, depending on the context. The most classical ones are the synchronous and asynchronous dynamics. Both are digraphs on $\{0,1\}^n$, but the…
We prove that the pushforwards of a very general class of fractal measures $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ under a large family of non-linear maps $F \colon \mathbb{R}^d \to \mathbb{R}$ exhibit polynomial Fourier decay: there exist $C,\eta>0$ such…
We introduce a general class of sense-preserving harmonic mappings defined as follows: \begin{equation*} \mathcal{S}^0_{h+\bar{g}}(M):= \{f=h+\bar{g}: \sum_{m=2}^{\infty}(\gamma_m|a_m|+\delta_m|b_m|)\leq M, \; M>0 \}, \end{equation*} where…
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…
Boolean functions and binary sequences are main tools used in cryptography. In this work, we introduce a new bijection between the set of Boolean functions and the set of binary sequences with period a power of two. We establish a…
The sum of the absolute values of the Fourier coefficients of a function $f:\mathbb{F}_2^n \to \mathbb{R}$ is called the spectral norm of $f$. Green and Sanders' quantitative version of Cohen's idempotent theorem states that if the spectral…
The purpose of the present paper is to show that in certain classes of real (or complex) functions, the Bernoulli polynomials are essentially the only ones satisfying the Raabe functional equation. For the class of the real $1$-periodic…
