To render a sequence testable, namely capable of identifying and detecting errors, it is necessary to apply a transformation that increases its length by introducing statistical dependence among symbols, as commonly exemplified by the…
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…
Let $f$ be a non-CM Hecke eigencusp form of level 1 and fixed weight, and let $\{\lambda_f(n)\}_n$ be its sequence of normalized Fourier coefficients. We show that if $K/ \mathbb{Q}$ is any number field, and $\mathcal{N}_K$ denotes the…
We study the signed Bernoulli convolution $$\nu_\beta^{(n)}=*_{j=1}^n \left (\frac12\delta_{\beta^{-j}}-\frac12\delta_{-\beta^{-j}}\right ),\ n\ge 1$$ where $\beta>1$ satisfies $$\beta^m=\beta^{m-1}+\cdots+\beta+1$$ for some integer $m\ge…
This study continues three recent papers in which barypolygonal sequences have been defined and their properties of convergence demonstrated. Any barypolygonal sequence $\mathcal{B}$ of a finite set $\mathcal{A}$ comprising $p\ge 2$ points…
A sequence $\{x_{n}\}_1^\infty$ in $[0,1)$ is called Borel-Cantelli (BC) if for all non-increasing sequences of positive real numbers $\{a_n\}$ with $\underset{i=1}{\overset{\infty}{\sum}}a_i=\infty$ the set…
Let \bar{M}_{0,n} be the moduli space of pointed, genus 0 curves. Let L_i denote the line bundle on \bar{M}_{0,n} associated to the i-th marked point (the fiber of L_i is the cotangent space of the pointed curve at the i-th point).…
Let $m$ be an even positive integer. A Boolean bent function $f$ on $\GF{m-1} \times \GF {}$ is called a \emph{cyclic bent function} if for any $a\neq b\in \GF {m-1}$ and $\epsilon \in \GF{}$, $f(ax_1,x_2)+f(bx_1,x_2+\epsilon)$ is always…
Labeled infinite trees provide combinatorial interpretations for many integer sequences generated by nested recurrence relations. Typically, such sequences are monotone increasing. Several of these sequences also have straightforward…
Negative orientable sequences, i.e. periodic sequences with elements from a finite alphabet of size at least three in which an n-tuple or the negative of its reverse appears at most once in a period of the sequence, were introduced by…
We fully classify completely multiplicative sequences which are given by generalised polynomial formulae, and obtain a similar result for (not necessarily completely) multiplicative sequences under the additional restriction that the…
We establish that the sequences formed by logarithms and by "fractional" powers of integers, as well as the sequence of prime numbers, are non-holonomic, thereby answering three open problems of Gerhold [Electronic Journal of Combinatorics…
We show that any sequence of well-behaved (e.g. bounded and non-constant) real-valued functions of $n$ boolean variables $\{f_n\}$ admits a sequence of coordinates whose $L^1$ influence under the $p$-biased distribution, for any…
Let $f$ be a measurable, real function defined in a neighbourhood of infinity. The function $f$ is said to be of generalised regular variation if there exist functions $h \not\equiv 0$ and $g > 0$ such that $f(xt) - f(t) = h(x) g(t) +…
The algebraic properties of formal power series, whose coefficients show factorial growth and admit a certain well-behaved asymptotic expansion, are discussed. It is shown that these series form a subring of $\mathbb{R}[[x]]$. This subring…
In dynamical percolation, the status of every bond is refreshed according to an independent Poisson clock. For graphs which do not percolate at criticality, the dynamical sensitivity of this property was analyzed extensively in the last…
We consider one-dimensional systems in the presence of a quasi-periodic perturbation, in the analytical setting, and study the problem of existence of quasi-periodic solutions which are resonant with the frequency vector of the…
Given a one-dimensional shift $X$, let $|F_X(\ell)|$ be the number of follower sets of words of length $\ell$ in $X$. We call the sequence $\{|F_X(\ell)|\}_{\ell \in \mathbb{N}}$ the follower set sequence of the shift $X$. Extender sets are…
The differential transform method is used to find numerical approximation of solution to a class of certain nonlinear differential algebraic equations. The method is based on Taylor's theorem. Coefficients of the Taylor series are…
The purpose of this note is to characterize those orthogonal polynomials sequences $(P_n)_{n\geq0}$ for which $$ \pi(x)\mathcal{D}_q P_n(x)=(a_n x+b_n)P_n(x)+c_n P_{n-1}(x),\quad n=0,1,2,\dots, $$ where $\mathcal{D}_q$ is the Askey-Wilson…
