Let $n\geq2$ be an integer. In this paper, we study the convexity of the so-called MacMahon's $q$-Catalan polynomials $C_n(q)=\frac1{[n+1]_q}\left[ 2n \atop n \right]_q$ as functions of $q$. Along the way, several intermediate results on…

Permutation rational functions over finite fields have attracted much attention in recent years. In this paper, we introduce a class of permutation rational functions over $\mathbb F_{q^2}$, whose numerators are so-called $q$-quadratic…

Differentially 4-uniform permutations on $\gf_{2^{2k}}$ with high nonlinearity are often chosen as Substitution boxes in both block and stream ciphers. Recently, Qu et al. introduced a class of functions, which are called preferred…

We consider the partial theta function $\theta (q,z):=\sum _{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}z^j$, where $(q,z)\in \mathbb{C}^2$, $|q|<1$. We show that for any $0<\delta _0<\delta <1$, there exists $n_0\in \mathbb{N}$ such that for any $q$ with…

In this paper, we classify $(q,q)$-biprojective almost perfect nonlinear (APN) functions over $\mathbb{LL} \times \mathbb{LL}$ under the natural left and right action of $\mathrm{GL}(2,\mathbb{LL})$ where $\mathbb{LL}$ is a finite field of…

The representation theory of the quantum group su$_q(2)$ is used to introduce $q$-analogues of the Wigner rotation matrices, spherical functions, and Legendre polynomials. The method amounts to an extension of variable separation from…

In this article a procedure to construct bent functions from $\F_{p^n}$ to $\F_p$ by merging plateaued functions which are bent on ($n-2$)-dimensional subspaces of $\F_{p^n}$ is presented. Taking advantage of such classes of plateaued…

We propose a new class of transforms that we call {\it Lehmer Transform} which is motivated by the {\it Lehmer mean function}. The proposed {\it Lehmer transform} decomposes a function of a sample into their constituting statistical…

Whereas the design and properties of bent and plateaued functions have been frequently addressed during the past few decades, there are only a few design methods of so-called 5-valued spectra Boolean functions whose Walsh spectra takes the…

A Q-system is a unitary version of a separable Frobenius algebra object in a C*-tensor category or a C*-2-category. We prove that, for C*-2-categories $\mcal C$ and $\mcal D$, the C*-2-category $\textbf{Fun}(\mcal C, \mcal D)$ of $ * $-$ 2…

Integration, just as much as differentiation, is a fundamental calculus tool that is widely used in many scientific domains. Formalizing the mathematical concept of integration and the associated results in a formal proof assistant helps in…

According to the statistical interpretation of quantum theory, quantum computers form a distinguished class of probabilistic machines (PMs) by encoding n qubits in 2n pbits (random binary variables). This raises the possibility of a…

We investigate some weighted integer partitions whose generating functions are double-series. We will establish closed formulas for these $q$-double series and deduce that their coefficients are non-negative. This leads to inequalities…

Extending the method proposed in [arXiv:1109.5524], we derive QQ-relations (functional relations among Baxter Q-functions) and T-functions (eigenvalues of transfer matrices) for fusion vertex models associated with the twisted quantum…

In this paper, we introduce a new two-parameter deformation of the Gamma function that generalizes some existing Gamma-type functions in the literature. We study properties of this function that depend on the parameters. We also prove some…

For a simple connected graph $G$, the $Q$-generating function of the numbers $N_k$ of semi-edge walks of length $k$ in $G$ is defined by $W_Q(t)=\sum\nolimits_{k = 0}^\infty {N_k t^k }$. This paper reveals that the $Q$-generating function…

In this paper, we construct the alternating multiple q-zeta function(= Multiple Euler q-zeta function) and investigate their properties. Finally, we give some interesting functional eauations related to q-Euler polynomials.

In this paper wavelet functions are introduced in the context of $q$-theory. We precisely extend the case of Bessel and $q$-Bessel wavelets to the generalized $q$-Bessel wavelets. Starting from the $(q,v)$-extension ($v=(\alpha,\beta)$) of…

Two integral representations of q-analogues of the Hurwitz zeta function are established. Each integral representation allows us to obtain an analytic continuation including also a full description of poles and special values at…
