We present a construction of partial spread bent functions using subspaces generated by linear recurring sequences (LRS). We first show that the kernels of the linear mappings defined by two LRS have a trivial intersection if and only if…
A complete set of N+1 mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) exists in Hilbert spaces of dimension N = p^k, where p is a prime number. They mesh naturally with finite affine planes of order N, that exist when N = p^k. The existence of MUBs for…
The number of $n$-ary bent functions is less than $2^{3\cdot2^{n-3}(1+o(1))}$ as $n$ is even and $n\rightarrow\infty$. Keywords: Boolean function, bent function, upper bound
We present a method for tabulating all cubic function fields over $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ whose discriminant $D$ has either odd degree or even degree and the leading coefficient of $-3D$ is a non-square in $\mathbb{F}_{q}^*$, up to a given bound…
We study generalized regular bent functions using a representation by bent rectangles, that is, special matrices with restrictions on rows and columns. We describe affine transformations of bent rectangles, propose new biaffine and bilinear…
We construct the covariant and the cocartesian model structures on the slice categories of cubical sets and marked cubical sets, respectively. As an application, we derive a version of the Bousfield-Kan formula for arbitrary cofibrantly…
Nagata's famous counterexample to Hilbert's fourteenth problem shows that the ring of invariants of an algebraic group action on an affine algebraic variety is not always finitely generated. In some sense, however, invariant rings are not…
We study the class of Lorentzian symmetric polynomials and Lorentzian symmetric functions, which are defined to be symmetric functions for which every truncation of variables is Lorentzian. Similar to the space of Lorentzian polynomials, we…
In this paper, we generalize the classical Nevanlinna theory of algebroid functions from $\mathbb C$ to a complete K\"ahler manifold with either non-negative Ricci curvature or non-positive sectional curvature. As its applications, we…
We find conditions which ensure that the topological complexity of a closed manifold $M$ with abelian fundamental group is nonmaximal, and see through examples that our conditions are sharp. This generalizes results of Costa and Farber on…
In a recent paper \cite{Zhang-Xiao}, Zhang and Xiao describe a technique on constructing almost optimal resilient functions on even number of variables. In this paper, we will present an extensive study of the constructions of almost…
The set of linear structures of most known balanced Boolean functions is nontrivial. In this paper, some balanced Boolean functions whose set of linear structures is trivial are constructed. We show that any APN function in even dimension…
It is well known that a quadratic function defined on a finite field of odd degree is almost bent (AB) if and only if it is almost perfect nonlinear (APN). For the even degree case there is no apparent relationship between the values in the…
For each non-constant Boolean function $q$, Klapper introduced the notion of $q$-transforms of Boolean functions. The {\em $q$-transform} of a Boolean function $f$ is related to the Hamming distances from $f$ to the functions obtainable…
We carry out the spatially periodic homogenization of nonlinear bending theory for plates. The derivation is rigorous in the sense of Gamma-convergence. In contrast to what one naturally would expect, our result shows that the limiting…
We suggest that proper variables for the description of non-Abelian theories are those gauge invariant ones which keep the invariance of the winding number functional with respect to topologically nontrivial (large) gauge transformations.…
We construct all quintic invariants in five variables with simple Non-Abelian finite symmetry groups. These define Calabi-Yau three-folds which are left invariant by the action of A_5, A_6 or PSL_2(11).
Bent functions, or equivalently, Hadamard difference sets in the elementary Abelian group $(\gf(2^{2m}), +)$, have been employed to construct symmetric and quasi-symmetric designs having the symmetric difference property. The main objective…
In the context of Hilbert's tenth problem, an outstanding open case is that of complex entire functions in one variable. A negative solution is known for polynomials (by Denef) and for exponential polynomials of finite order (by Chompitaki,…
Negabent functions were introduced as a generalization of bent functions, which have applications in coding theory and cryptography. In this paper, we have extended the notion of negabent functions to the functions defined from…
