The classification of maximal function fields over a finite field is a difficult open problem, and even determining isomorphism classes among known function fields is challenging in general. We study a particular family of maximal function…
Planar functions over finite fields give rise to finite projective planes and other combinatorial objects. They exist only in odd characteristic, but recently Zhou introduced an even characteristic analogue which has similar applications.…
In this paper, weakly homogeneous generalized functions in the special Colombeau algebras are determined up to equality in the sense of generalized distributions. This yields characterizations that are formally similar to distribution…
We study in this paper very badly approximable matrix functions on the unit circle $\T$, i.e., matrix functions $\Phi$ such that the zero function is a superoptimal approximation of $\Phi$. The purpose of this paper is to obtain a…
In this paper we define a new (output) multiplicative differential, and the corresponding $c$-differential uniformity. With this new concept, even for characteristic $2$, there are perfect $c$-nonlinear (PcN) functions. We first…
We contruct two classes of Zalcman-type domains, on which the Bergman distance functions have certain pre-described boundary behaviors. Such examples also lead to generalizations of uniformly perfectness in the sense of Pommerenke. These…
In 2020, Budaghyan, Helleseth and Kaleyski [IEEE TIT 66(11): 7081-7087, 2020] considered an infinite family of quadrinomials over $\mathbb{F}_{2^{n}}$ of the form $x^3+a(x^{2^s+1})^{2^k}+bx^{3\cdot 2^m}+c(x^{2^{s+m}+2^m})^{2^k}$, where…
In this paper, we introduce a class of nonlinear optimisation problems. Under mild assumptions, we obtain the existence of potential functions and show that the potential function is a generalised solution of a Monge-Amp\`ere type equation.…
We give all the polynomials functions of degree 20 which are APN over an infinity of field extensions and show they are all CCZ-equivalent to the function $x^5$, which is a new step in proving the conjecture of Aubry, McGuire and Rodier.
Ultrafunctions are a particular class of functions defined on a Non Archimedean field R^{*}\supset R. They have been introduced and studied in some previous works ([1],[2],[3]). In this paper we introduce a modified notion of ultrafunction…
We consider the problem of classifying gradings by groups on a finite-dimensional algebra $A$ (with any number of multilinear operations) over an algebraically closed field. We introduce a class of gradings, which we call almost fine, such…
In this note, we show how to obtain a "characteristic power series" of graphons -- infinite limits of dense graphs -- as the limit of normalized reciprocal characteristic polynomials. This leads to a new characterization of graph…
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…
We demonstrate the convergence of the characteristic polynomial of several random matrix ensembles to a limiting universal function, at the microscopic scale. The random matrix ensembles we treat are classical compact groups and the…
Using commutative algebra methods we study the generalized minimum distance function (gmd function) and the corresponding generalized footprint function of a graded ideal in a polynomial ring over a field. The number of solutions that a…
Algebras of generalized functions offer possibilities beyond the purely distributional approach in modelling singular quantities in non-smooth differential geometry. This article presents an introductory survey of recent developments in…
In this article, we focus on the concept of locally-APN-ness (``APN" is the abbreviation of the well-known notion of Almost Perfect Nonlinear) introduced by Blondeau, Canteaut, and Charpin, which makes the corpus of S-boxes somehow larger…
Let A be a connected graded noncommutative monomial algebra. We associate to A a finite graph \Gamma(A) called the CPS graph of A. Finiteness properties of the Yoneda algebra Ext_A(k,k) including Noetherianity, finite GK dimension, and…
In this article, logarithmically complete monotonicity properties of some functions such as $\frac1{[\Gamma(x+1)]^{1/x}}$, $\frac{[{\Gamma(x+\alpha+1)}]^{1/(x+\alpha)}}{[{\Gamma(x+1)}]^{1/x}}$, $\frac{[\Gamma(x+1)]^{1/x}}{(x+1)^\alpha}$ and…
Functions with low c-differential uniformity have optimal resistance to some types of differential cryptanalysis. In this paper, we investigate the c-differential uniformity of power functions over finite fields. Based on some known almost…
