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…
A long-investigated problem in circuit complexity theory is to decompose an $n$-input or $n$-variable Majority Boolean function (call it $M_n$) using $k$-input ones ($M_k$), $k < n$, where the objective is to achieve the decomposition using…
We describe an asynchronous algorithm to solve secure multiparty computation (MPC) over n players, when strictly less than a 1/8 fraction of the players are controlled by a static adversary. For any function f over a field that can be…
Symmetric submodular functions are an important family of submodular functions capturing many interesting cases including cut functions of graphs and hypergraphs. Maximization of such functions subject to various constraints receives little…
Algebraic immunity has been proposed as an important property of Boolean functions. To resist algebraic attack, a Boolean function should possess high algebraic immunity. It is well known now that the algebraic immunity of an $n$-variable…
It has been conjectured that there are no homogeneous rotation symmetric bent Boolean functions of degree greater than two. In this paper we begin by proving that sums of short-cycle rotation symmetric bent Boolean functions must contain a…
We consider boolean circuits computing n-operators f:{0,1}^n --> {0,1}^n. As gates we allow arbitrary boolean functions; neither fanin nor fanout of gates is restricted. An operator is linear if it computes n linear forms, that is, computes…
In this paper we study the complexity of quantum query algorithms computing the value of Boolean function and its relation to the degree of algebraic polynomial representing this function. We pay special attention to Boolean functions with…
Bent functions are Boolean functions that are maximally nonlinear. They can be represented as bent squares, i.e., square matrices for which each row and each column is the Walsh spectrum of a Boolean function. Using this representation, it…
We establish a lower bound for deciding the satisfiability of the conjunction of any two Boolean formulas from a set called a full representation of Boolean functions of $n$ variables - a set containing a Boolean formula to represent each…
We consider the vector-valued Boolean function $f:\{0,1\}^n\rightarrow \{0,1\}^n$ that outputs all $n$ monomials of degree $n-1$, i.e., $f_i(x)=\bigwedge_{j\neq i}x_j$, for $n\geq 3$. Boyar and Find have shown that the multiplicative…
It is widely known that the lower bound for the algorithmic complexity of square matrix multiplication resorts to at least $n^2$ arithmetic operations. The justification builds upon the following reasoning: given that there are $2 n^2$…
Recently, several mathematicians have investigated various partition functions with the goal of discovering Ramanujan-type congruences. One such function is $\overline{B}_{2^\alpha}(n)$, which represents the number of $2^\alpha-$regular…
We present a novel class of methods to compute functions of matrices or their action on vectors that are suitable for parallel programming. Solving appropriate simple linear systems of equations in parallel (or computing the inverse of…
Consider a point-to-point communication system in which the transmitter holds a binary message of length $m$ and transmits a corresponding codeword of length $n$. The receiver's goal is to recover a Boolean function of that message, where…
We estimate the Boolean complexity of multiplication of structured matrices by a vector and the solution of nonsingular linear systems of equations with these matrices. We study four basic most popular classes, that is, Toeplitz, Hankel,…
Rotation symmetric Boolean functions represent an interesting class of Boolean functions as they are relatively rare compared to general Boolean functions. At the same time, the functions in this class can have excellent properties, making…
In this paper the theory of 2-Variable Boolean Operation (2-VBO) has been discussed on a pair of n-bit strings. 2-VBO serves to bring out the relation between numbers which when plot on a 2-D surface form interesting patterns; patterns that…
In this paper, we investigate permutation rotation-symmetric (shift-invariant) vectorial Boolean functions on $n$ bits that are liftings from Boolean functions on $k$ bits, for $k\leq n$. These functions generalize the well-known map used…
Inspired by Armin Straub's conjecture (arXiv:1601.07161) about the number and maximal size of (2n+1, 2n+3)-core partitions with distinct parts, we develop relatively efficient, symbolic-computational algorithms, based on non-linear…
