We introduce a new family of non-negative real-valued functions on a $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$, i.e., for $0\leq \mu \leq 1,$ $$\|a\|_{\sigma_{\mu}}= \text{sup}\left\lbrace \sqrt{|f(a)|^2 \sigma_{\mu} f(a^*a)}: f\in \mathcal{A}', \,…
We introduce a new factorial function which agrees with the usual Euler gamma function at both the positive integers and at all half-integers, but which is also entire. We describe the basic features of this function.
It is shown in this paper that there is a connection between the Riemann zeta-function $\zf$ and the Bessel's functions. In this direction, a new class of the nonlinear integral equations is introduced.
Recently, a new concept called the $c$-differential uniformity was proposed by Ellingsen et al. (2020), which allows to simplify some types of differential cryptanalysis. Since then, finding functions having low $c$-differential uniformity…
This paper provides answers to several open problems about equational theories of idempotent semifields. In particular, it is proved that (i) no equational theory of a non-trivial class of idempotent semifields has a finite basis; (ii)…
In this paper, by analyzing solutions of certain equations in the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{5^m}$, three classes of new optimal quinary cyclic codes with parameters $[5^m-1,5^m-2m-2,4]$ and two theorems are presented. With the help of the…
Almost perfect nonlinear (APN) functions play an important role in the design of block ciphers as they offer the strongest resistance against differential cryptanalysis. Despite more than 25 years of research, only a limited number of APN…
Functorial semi-norms are semi-normed refinements of functors such as singular (co)homology. We investigate how different types of representability affect the (non-)triviality of finite functorial semi-norms on certain functors or classes.…
Semifields are semirings in which every nonzero element has a multiplicative inverse. A rough classification uses the characteristic of the semifield, that is the isomorphism type of the semifield generated by the two neutral elements. For…
In this paper we collect and improve the techniques for calculating the nuclei of a semifield and we use these tools to determine the order of the nuclei and of the center of some commutative presemifields of odd characteristic recently…
Finding functions, particularly permutations, with good differential properties has received a lot of attention due to their varied applications. For instance, in combinatorial design theory, a correspondence of perfect $c$-nonlinear…
Recently, the interest in semifields has increased due to the discovery of several new families and progress in the classification problem. Commutative semifields play an important role since they are equivalent to certain planar functions…
In [U. Dempwolff: More Translation Planes and Semifields from Dembowski-Ostrom Polynomials, Designs, Codes, Cryptogr. \textbf{68} (1-3) (2013), 81-103], the author gives a construction of three classes of rank two semifields of order…
The only known example of an almost perfect nonlinear (APN) permutation in even dimension was obtained by applying CCZ-equivalence to a specific quadratic APN function. Motivated by this result, there have been numerous recent attempts to…
Planar functions are mappings from a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ to itself with an extremal differential property. Such functions give rise to finite projective planes and other combinatorial objects. There is a subtle difference between…
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…
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.…
Low ambiguity zone (LAZ) sequences play a crucial role in modern integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) systems. In this paper, we introduce a novel class of functions known as locally perfect nonlinear functions (LPNFs). By utilizing…
We study semifinite harmonic functions on the zigzag graph, which corresponds to Pieri's rule for the fundamental quasisymmetric functions $\{F_{\lambda}\}$. The main problem, which we solve here, is to classify the indecomposable…
The Walsh transform $\widehat{Q}$ of a quadratic function $Q:F_{p^n}\rightarrow F_p$ satisfies $|\widehat{Q}(b)| \in \{0,p^{\frac{n+s}{2}}\}$ for all $b\in F_{p^n}$, where $0\le s\le n-1$ is an integer depending on $Q$. In this article, we…
