In this paper, we consider the characterization of the bentness of quadratic Boolean functions of the form $f(x)=\sum_{i=1}^{\frac{m}{2}-1} Tr^n_1(c_ix^{1+2^{ei}})+ Tr_1^{n/2}(c_{m/2}x^{1+2^{n/2}}) ,$ where $n=me$, $m$ is even and $c_i\in…

First, we prove tight bounds of $n 2^{\frac{1}{(t-2)!}\alpha(n)^{t-2} \pm O(\alpha(n)^{t-3})}$ on the extremal function of the forbidden pair of ordered sequences $(1 2 3 \ldots k)^t$ and $(k \ldots 3 2 1)^t$ using bounds on a class of…

Let $k \geq 3$. If a multiplicative function $f$ satisfies \[ f(a_1^3 + a_2^3 + \cdots + a_k^3) = f(a_1^3) + f(a_2^3) + \cdots + f(a_k^3) \] for all $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_k \in \mathbb{N}$, then $f$ is the identity function. The set of…

This note is concerned with an extension, at second order, of an inequality on the discrete cube $C_n=\{-1,1\}$ (equipped with the uniform measure) due to Talagrand (\cite{TalL1L2}). As an application, the main result of this note is a…

I solve here a question of Vladimir Reshetnikov in Mathoverflow (question 261649) about the values of Fabius function. Namely, I prove that the numbers $R_n:=2^{-\binom{n-1}{2}}(2n)! F(2^{-n})\prod_{m=1}^{\lfloor n/2\rfloor}(2^{2m}-1)$ are…

In this paper we shall classify all positive solutions of $ \Delta u =a u^p$ on the upper half space $ H =\Bbb{R}_+^n$ with nonlinear boundary condition $ {\partial u}/{\partial t}= - b u^q $ on $\partial H$ for both positive parameters $a,…

We introduce a basis of rational polynomial-like functions $P_0,\ldots,P_{n-1}$ for the free module of functions $Z/nZ\to Z/mZ$. We then characterize the subfamily of congruence preserving functions as the set of linear combinations of the…

Research in the area of secure multi-party computation using a deck of playing cards, often called card-based cryptography, started from the introduction of the five-card trick protocol to compute the logical AND function by den Boer in…

We study the sharp constant $W_{n}(D)$ in Wiener's inequality for positive definite functions \[ \int_{\mathbb{T}^{n}}|f|^{2}\,dx\le W_{n}(D)|D|^{-1}\int_{D}|f|^{2}\,dx,\quad D\subset \mathbb{T}^{n}. \] N. Wiener proved that…

Suppose B=F[x,y,z]/h is the homogeneous coordinate ring of a characteristic p degree 3 irreducible plane curve C with a node. Let J be a homogeneous (x,y,z)-primary ideal and n -> e_n be the Hilbert-Kunz function of B with respect to J. Let…

The largest Hamming distance between a Boolean function in $n$ variables and the set of all affine Boolean functions in $n$ variables is known as the covering radius $\rho_n$ of the $[2^n,n+1]$ Reed-Muller code. This number determines how…

Martin's Conjecture is a proposed classification of the definable functions on the Turing degrees. It is usually divided into two parts, the first of which classifies functions which are not above the identity and the second of which…

We study the function $(1 - \|x\|)\slash (1 - \|x\|^r),$ and its reciprocal, on the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n,$ with respect to properties like being positive definite, conditionally positive definite, and infinitely divisible.

In the $(2,5)$ minimal model, the partition function for genus $g=2$ Riemann surfaces is given by a $5$-tuple of functions with appropriate transformation under the mapping class group. These functions generalise the two Rogers-Ramanujan…

This work provides a complete characterization of congruent numbers in terms of Pythagorean triples. Specifically, we show that every congruent number can be written as $$\frac{nm\left(m-n\right)\left(m+n\right)}{\sigma^2}$$ were as…

We prove two main results on how arbitrary linear threshold functions $f(x) = \sign(w\cdot x - \theta)$ over the $n$-dimensional Boolean hypercube can be approximated by simple threshold functions. Our first result shows that every…

Affine equivalent classes of Boolean functions have many applications in modern cryptography and circuit design. Previous publications have shown that affine equivalence on the entire space of Boolean functions can be computed up to 10…

We investigate the problem whether a function of several arguments can be reconstructed from its identification minors. We focus on functions with a unique identification minor, and we establish some positive and negative results on the…
