The Fourier-Walsh expansion of a Boolean function $f \colon \{0,1\}^n \rightarrow \{0,1\}$ is its unique representation as a multilinear polynomial. The Kindler-Safra theorem (2002) asserts that if in the expansion of $f$, the total weight…

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…

A certain subspace of the Hilbert space of square-integrable functions on the unit interval has been considered by Nyman, Beurling, and others, with the result that the constant function 1 belongs to it if and only if the Riemann Hypothesis…

Motivated by an open question going back to P.Malliavin and P.-A.Meyer (and closely related to the foundational work of S.Watanabe) on whether Malliavin-Watanabe-Sobolev regularity admits a characterization in terms of a holomorphic Laplace…

In this paper, we consider the characterization of norm--parallelism problem in some classical Banach spaces. In particular, for two continuous functions $f, g$ on a compact Hausdorff space $K$, we show that $f$ is norm--parallel to $g$ if…

In this article, we study spectral Barron spaces whose elements are made up of some vector-valued functions on a compact group whose Fourier transforms admit a certain summability property. We investigate their functional properties and…

This work is concerned with the convex analysis of functions defined on (not necessarily finite-dimensional) Hilbert spaces whose values depend solely on a certain ``spectrum'' of the arguments, a class we term ``spectral functions.'' We…

We study the behaviour of the algebraic degree of vectorial Boolean functions when their inputs are restricted to an affine subspace of their domain. Functions which maintain their degree on all subspaces of as high a codimension as…

For $ 1\le k <n$, we prove that for functions $F,G$ on $ {\Bbb R}^{n}$, any $k$-dimensional affine subspace $H \subset {\Bbb R}^{n}$, and $p,q,r \ge 2$ with $\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}+\frac{1}{r}=1$, one has the estimate $$…

We investigate the max min of the algebraic degree and the nonlinearity of a Boolean function in $n$ variables when restricted to a $k$-dimensional affine subspace of $\mathbb{F}_2^n$. Previous authors have focused on the cases when the max…

Bent functions are Boolean functions in an even number of variables that are indicators of Hadamard difference sets in elementary abelian 2-groups. A bent function in m variables is said to be normal if it is constant on an affine space of…

Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian topological group. For locally bounded measurable functions $\varphi: G\to\Bbb {C}$ we discuss notions of spectra for $\varphi$ relative to subalgebras of $L^{1}(G)$. In particular we study polynomials…

This paper deals with spectral inequalities for one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with potentials bounded between two increasing functions (weights). The spectral inequality allows one to estimate the norm of a function with bounded…

We give a level one result for the "symmetry integral", say $I_f(N,h)$, of essentially bounded $f:\N \to \R$; i.e., we get a kind of "square-root cancellation" \thinspace bound for the mean-square (in $N<x\le 2N$) of the "symmetry"…
