In this paper, we investigate generalized bent functions (GBFs) from $\mathbb{Z}_3^n$ to $\mathbb{Z}_m$. We show that GBFs exist whenever $3$ divides $m$, while several nonexistence results are obtained when $3\nmid m$. In particular, we…
Several nonexistence results on generalized bent functions $f:Z_{2}^{n} \rightarrow Z_{m}$ presented by using some knowledge on cyclotomic number fields and their imaginary quadratic subfields.
We obtain new nonexistence results for two classes of generalized bent functions from $\mathbb{Z}_{q}^{n}$ to $\mathbb{Z}_{q}$, called type $[n,q]$ generalized bent functions. The first class concerns the case $q=2 p_1^{e_1} p_2^{e_2}$,…
We present a new result on the nonexistence of generalized bent functions (GBFs)from (Z/tZ)^n to Z/tZ (called type [n, t]) for a large class. Assume p is an odd prime number. By showing certain quadratic norm form equations having no…
We obtain new nonexistence results of generalized bent functions from $\{Z^n}_q$ to $\Z_q$ (called type $[n,q]$) in the case that there exist cyclotomic integers in $ \Z[\zeta_{q}]$ with absolute value $q^{\frac{n}{2}}$. This result…
We prove new non-existence results for vectorial monomial Dillon type bent functions mapping the field of order $2^{2m}$ to the field of order $2^{m/3}$. When $m$ is odd and $m>3$ we show that there are no such functions. When $m$ is even…
We obtain new non-existence results of generalized bent functions from \ZZ^n_q to \ZZ_q (called type [n,q]). The first case is a class of types where q=2p_1^{r_1}p_2^{r_2}. The second case contains two types [1 <= n <= 3, 2 * 31^e]$ and [1…
Generalized bent (gbent) functions is a class of functions $f: \mathbb{Z}_2^n \rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_q$, where $q \geq 2$ is a positive integer, that generalizes a concept of classical bent functions through their co-domain extension. A lot…
In this paper, we study the dual of generalized bent functions $f: V_{n}\rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_{p^k}$ where $V_{n}$ is an $n$-dimensional vector space over $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ and $p$ is an odd prime, $k$ is a positive integer. It is known…
A one to one correspondence between regular generalized bent functions from $\F_2^n$ to $\Z_{2^m},$ and $m-$tuples of Boolean bent functions is established. This correspondence maps self-dual (resp. anti-self-dual) generalized bent…
In this paper we characterize (octal) bent generalized Boolean functions defined on $\BBZ_2^n$ with values in $\BBZ_8$. Moreover, we propose several constructions of such generalized bent functions for both $n$ even and $n$ odd.
In a recent survey, Schmidt compiled equivalences between generalized bent functions, group invariant Butson Hadamard matrices, and abelian splitting relative difference sets. We establish a broader network of equivalences by considering…
In this paper, we describe a different approach to the proof of the nonexistence of homogeneous rotation symmetric bent functions. As a result, we obtain some new results which support the conjecture made in this journal, i.e., there are no…

In this paper we prove that generalized bent (gbent) functions defined on $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$ with values in $\mathbb{Z}_{2^k}$ are regular, and find connections between the (generalized) Walsh spectrum of these functions and their components.…
For positive integers m and n, denote S(m,n) as the associated Stirling number of the second kind and let z be a complex variable. In this paper, we introduce the Stirling functions S(m,n,z) which satisfy S(m,n,z) = S(m,n) for any z which…
Let $n=2m$. In the present paper, we study the binomial Boolean functions of the form $$f_{a,b}(x) = \mathrm{Tr}_1^{n}(a x^{2^m-1 }) +\mathrm{Tr}_1^{2}(bx^{\frac{2^n-1}{3} }), $$ where $m$ is an even positive integer, $a\in…
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…
We disprove a conjecture of Bombieri regarding univalent functions in the unit disk in some previously unknown cases. The key step in the argument is showing that the global minimum of the real function…
