APN functions play a central role as building blocks in the design of many block ciphers, serving as optimal functions to resist differential attacks. One of the most important properties of APN functions is their linearity, which is…
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…
The automorphism group of a binary doubly-even self-dual code is always contained in the alternating group. On the other hand, given a permutation group $G$ of degree $n$ there exists a doubly-even self-dual $G$-invariant code if and only…
Let $p$ be a prime, let $d \geq 1$ be an integer and $A$ be the algebra of square matrices of size $d$ over the field of order $p$. Let $P, Q \in A[x_1, \dots x_n]$ be polynomials in $n$ indeterminates with coefficients in $A$, such that…
A self-consistent treatment of two and three point functions in models with trilinear interactions forces them to have opposite anomalous dimensions. We indicate how the anomalous dimension can be extracted nonperturbatively by solving and…

For any finite point set in $D$-dimensional space equipped with the 1-norm, we present random linear embeddings to $k$-dimensional space, with a new metric, having the following properties. For any pair of points from the point set that are…
An important aspect in the theory of algebras with polynomial identities is the study of the asymptotic behavior of the codimension sequence $c_n(A),\, n\geq 1,$ which measures the growth of polynomial identities of a given algebra $A$. In…
Symmetric ideals in increasingly larger polynomial rings that form an ascending chain are investigated. We focus on the asymptotic behavior of codimensions and projective dimensions of ideals in such a chain. If the ideals are graded it is…

We develop dimension theory for a large class of structures called espaliers, consisting of a set $L$ equipped with a partial order $\leq$, an orthogonality relation $\perp$, and an equivalence relation $\sim$, subject to certain axioms.…
Perfectly matched layers (PMLs) are formulated and applied to numerically solve nonlocal Helmholtz equations in one and two dimensions. In one dimension, we present the PML modifications for the nonlocal Helmholtz equation with general…

In this paper, we study the uniqueness of the differential-difference polynomials of entire functions on $\mathbb{C}^{n}$. We prove the following result: Let $f(z)$ be a transcendental entire function on $\mathbb{C}^{n}$ of hyper-order less…
Bicommutative algebras are nonassociative algebras satisfying the polynomial identities of right- and left-commutativity (xy)z=(xz)y and x(yz)=y(xz). We study subvarieties of the variety of all bicommutative algebras over a field of…
We establish the existence, finiteness, and uniqueness up to scaling of various isoperimetric profiles of a group, in all dimensions. We also show that these profiles all coincide in dimensions 4 and higher; in particular, the nth Dehn…
We show that within any strong orbit equivalent class, there exist minimal subshifts with arbitrarily low superlinear complexity. This is done by proving that for any simple dimension group with unit $(G,G^+,u)$ and any sequence of positive…
