The bivariate series $\theta (q,x):=\sum _{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}x^j$ %(where $(q,x)\in {\bf C}^2$, $|q|<1$) defines a {\em partial theta function}. For fixed $q$ ($|q|<1$), $\theta (q,.)$ is an entire function. For $q\in (-1,0)$ the…
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.…
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…
Let $F(X_1,X_2)\in\mathbb{Z}[X_1,X_2] $ be an irreducible binary form of degree $3$ and $h$ an arithmetic function. We give some estimates for the average order $\sum_{\substack{|n_1|\leq x,|n_2|\leq x}}h(F(n_1,n_2))$ when $h$ satisfy…
In this paper, we study the uniform measure for the self-conjugate partitions. We derive the $q$-difference equation which is satisfied by the $n$-point correlation function related to the uniform measure. As applications, we give explicit…
A new derivation is given of four-point functions of charge $Q$ chiral primary multiplets in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. A compact formula, valid for arbitrary $Q$, is given which is manifestly superconformal and analytic in the…
In the present paper we shall establish n-dimensional Hardy's inequalities with non-doubling weight functions of the distance to the boundary, where the boundary is a $C^2$ class bounded domain of $R^N$. This work is essentially based on…
Extending the notion of bounded variation, a function $u \in L_c^1(\mathbb R^n)$ is of bounded fractional variation with respect to some exponent $\alpha$ if there is a finite constant $C \geq 0$ such that the estimate \[ \biggl|\int u(x)…
We establish new recurrence and multiple recurrence results for a rather large family $\mathcal{F}$ of non-polynomial functions which includes tempered functions defined in [11], as well as functions from a Hardy field with the property…
We apply the techniques of computable model theory to the distance function of a graph. This task leads us to adapt the definitions of several truth-table reducibilities so that they apply to functions as well as to sets, and we prove…
Starting with the multiplication of elements in $\mathbb{F}_{q}^2$ which is consistent with that over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$, where $q$ is a prime power, via some identification of the two environments, we investigate the $c$-differential…
Generating functions for the size of a $r$-sphere, with respect to the Manhattan distance in an $n$-dimensional grid, are used to provide explicit formulas for the minimum and maximum size of an $r$-ball centered at a point of the grid.…
In this paper, we consider rational functions $f$ with some minor restrictions over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^n},$ where $q=p^k$ for some prime $p$ and positive integer $k$. We establish a sufficient condition for the existence of a…
A general lower bound is developed for the minimax risk when estimating an arbitrary functional. The bound is based on testing two composite hypotheses and is shown to be effective in estimating the nonsmooth functional…
The study of non-linearity (linearity) of Boolean function was initiated by Rothaus in 1976. The classical non-linearity of a Boolean function is the minimum Hamming distance of its truth table to that of affine functions. In this note we…
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…
The scheme for construction of distances, presented in the previous paper quant-ph/0005087, v.1 (Ref. 1) is amended. The formulation of Proposition 1 of Ref. 1 does not ensure the triangle inequality, therefore some of the functionals…
In this article we introduce the fractional Hardy-Littlewood maximal function on the infinite rooted $k$-ary tree and study its weighted boundedness. We also provide examples of weights for which the fractional Hardy-Littlewood maximal…
Simple asymptotic expansions for the Jacobi functions $P_\nu^{(\alpha, \beta)}(z)$ and $Q_\nu^{(\alpha, \beta)}(z)$ for large degree $\nu$, with fixed parameters $\alpha$ and $\beta$, are surprisingly rare in the literature, with only a few…
We study the conductance threshold of clean nearly straight quantum wires in which an electron is bound. We show that such a system exhibits spin-dependent conductance structures on the rising edge to the first conductance plateau, one near…
