In this paper, we obtain a new class of $p$-ary binomial bent functions which are determined by Kloosterman sums. The bentness of another three classes of functions is characterized by some exponential sums and some results in…

Let $(R,\fr m)$ be a Noetherian local ring, $I$ an ideal of $R$ and $M, N$ two finitely generated $R$-modules. The first result of this paper is to prove a vanishing theorem for generalized local cohomology modules which says that…

The necessary and sufficient conditions for a class of functions $f:\mathbb{Z}_2^n \rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_q$, where $q \geq 2$ is an even positive integer, have been recently identified for $q=4$ and $q=8$. In this article we give an…

By using the generalized Bernoulli numbers, we deduce new integral representations for the Riemann zeta function at positive odd-integer arguments. The explicit expressions enable us to obtain criteria for the dimension of the vector space…

It has been an active research issue for many years to construct new bent functions. For $k$ odd with $\gcd(n, k)=1$, and $a\in\mathbb{F}_{3^n}^{*}$, the function $f(x)=Tr(ax^{\frac{3^k+1}{2}})$ is weakly regular bent over…

A conjecture of Bombieri states that the coefficients of a normalized univalent function $f$ should satisfy $$ \liminf_{f\to K} \frac{n-{\rm Re\,}a_n}{m-{\rm Re\,}a_m} = \min_{t\in{\mathbb R}} \, \frac{n\sin t -\sin(nt)}{m\sin t -\sin(mt)},…

We generalize the Brin-Higman-Thompson groups $n G_{k,1}$ to monoids $n M_{k,1}$, for $n \ge 1$ and $k \ge 2$, by replacing bijections by partial functions. The monoid $n M_{k,1}$ has $n G_{k,1}$ as its group of units, and is…

We continue the study of the $(a,b,m)$-copartition function $\mathrm{cp}_{a,b,m}(n)$, which arose as a combinatorial generalization of Andrews' partitions with even parts below odd parts. The generating function of $\mathrm{cp}_{a,b,m}(n)$…

We introduce $ L $-functions attached to negative definite plumbed manifolds as the Mellin transforms of homological blocks. We prove that they are entire functions and their values at $ s=0 $ are equal to the Witten--Reshetikhin--Turaev…

Recently, Breiter et al (2004) reported the computation of Hansen coefficients $X_k^{\gamma,m}$ for non integer values of $\gamma$. In fact, the Hansen coefficients are closely related to the Laplace $b_{s}^{(m)}$, and generalized Laplace…

In the process of proving a sharpened form of G\r{a}rding's inequality, Fefferman & Phong demonstrated that every non-negative function $f\in C^{3,1}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ can be written as a finite sum of squares of functions in…

In this article, we study bent functions on $\mathbb{F}_2^{2m}$ of the form $f(x,y) = x \cdot \phi(y) + h(y)$, where $x \in \mathbb{F}_2^{m-1} $ and $ y \in \mathbb{F}_2^{m+1}$, which form the generalized Maiorana-McFarland class (denoted…

In this paper, a new construction of quaternary bent functions from quaternary quadratic forms over Galois rings of characteristic 4 is proposed. Based on this construction, several new classes of quaternary bent functions are obtained, and…

In difference to many recent articles that deal with generalized bent (gbent) functions $f:\mathbb{Z}_2^n \rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_q$ for certain small valued $q\in \{4,8,16 \}$, we give a complete description of these functions for both $n$…

A new formula is derived that generalises an earlier result for the infinite integral over three spherical Bessel functions. The analytical result involves a finite sum over associated Legendre functions, $P_l^m(x)$, of degree $l$ and order…

Using a recent improvement by Bettin and Chandee to a bound of Duke, Friedlander and Iwaniec~(1997) on double exponential sums with Kloosterman fractions, we establish a uniformity of distribution result for the fractional parts of Dedekind…

For $m \geq 1$, let $N \geq 1$ be coprime to $m$, $k \geq 2$, and $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character modulo $N$ with $\chi(-1)=(-1)^k$. Then let $T_m^{\text{new}}(N,k,\chi)$ denote the restriction of the $m$-th Hecke operator to the space…

For any $n\in\mathbb{N}=\{0,1,2,\ldots\}$ and $b,c\in\mathbb{Z}$, the generalized central trinomial coefficient $T_n(b,c)$ denotes the coefficient of $x^n$ in the expansion of $(x^2+bx+c)^n$. Let $p$ be an odd prime. In this paper, we…

Bent functions as optimal combinatorial objects are difficult to characterize and construct. In the literature, bent idempotents are a special class of bent functions and few constructions have been presented, which are restricted by the…

We prove the following results solving a problem raised in [Y. Caro, R. Yuster, On zero-sum and almost zero-sum subgraphs over $\mathbb{Z}$, Graphs Combin. 32 (2016), 49--63]. For a positive integer $m\geq 2$, $m\neq 4$, there are…
