In this paper, several new classes of Boolean functions with few Walsh transform values, including bent, semi-bent and five-valued functions, are obtained by adding the product of two or three linear functions to some known bent…

Using non-archimedean q-integrals on Zp defined in [15, 16], we define a new Changhee q-Euler polynomials and numbers which are different from those of Kim [7] and Carlitz [2]. We define generating functions of multiple q-Euler numbers and…

Let $p\ge 7$, $q=p^m$. $K_q(a)=\sum_{x\in \mathbb{F}_{p^m}} \zeta^{\mathrm{Tr}^m_1(x^{p^m-2}+ax)}$ is the Kloosterman sum of $a$ on $\mathbb{F}_{p^m}$, where $\zeta=e^{\frac{2\pi\sqrt{-1}}{p}}$. The value $1-\frac{2}{\zeta+\zeta^{-1}}$ of…

In this article, we provide the first systematic analysis of bent functions $f$ on $\mathbb{F}_2^{n}$ in the Maiorana-McFarland class $\mathcal{MM}$ regarding the origin and cardinality of their $\mathcal{M}$-subspaces, i.e., vector…

Two classes of ternary bent functions of degree four with two and three terms in the univariate representation that belong to the completed Maiorana-McFarland class are found. Binomials are mappings $\F_{3^{4k}}\mapsto\fthree$ given by…

The arithmetic properties of the ordinary partition function $p(n)$ have been the topic of intensive study for the past century. Ramanujan proved that there are linear congruences of the form $p(\ell n+\beta)\equiv 0\pmod\ell$ for the…

In this article we give an order-dividing bijective function between cyclic and non cyclic groups of finite order. In particular, we prove that there exists a bijective function from D_{2n} to Z_{2n} for any natural integer n; and from Z_p…

We prove existence results for the Lane-Emden type system \[ \begin{cases} \begin{aligned} (-\Delta)^{\alpha} u=\left| v \right|^q \\ (-\Delta)^{\beta} v= \left| u \right|^p \end{aligned} \text{ in } B_1 \subset \mathbb{R}^N \\…

The purpose of this note is to introduce a new approach to the study of one of the most basic and seemingly intractable problems in partition theory, namely the conjecture that the partition function $p(n)$ is equidistributed modulo 2. Our…

A conjecture by Sun states that the partition function $p(n)$, for $n>1$, is never a perfect power. Recent work by Merca et al. proposes generalizations of perfect-power repulsion for $p(n)$. In this note, we prove these generalizations for…

The quantum affine $\CU_q (\hat{sl(2)}) $ symmetry is studied when $q^2$ is an even root of unity. The structure of this algebra allows a natural generalization of N=2 supersymmetry algebra. In particular it is found that the momentum…

All groups have 2 generators. For every prime power q, the Generalized Burnside Theorem (Theorem GB) produces an infinite number of solvable groups, Some, such as groups of a prime power exponent, have only elements of finite order and are…

Let $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ be a finite field with $q^n$ elements and $r$ be a positive divisor of $q^n-1$. An element $\alpha \in \mathbb{F}_{q^n}^*$ is called $r$-primitive if its multiplicative order is $(q^n-1)/r$. Also, $\alpha \in…

We study the $q$-bracket operator of Bloch and Okounkov when applied to $f(\lambda)=\sum_{\lambda_i \in \lambda}g(\lambda_i)$ and $f(\lambda)=\sum_{\substack{\lambda_i \in \lambda \lambda_i \text{distinct} }}g(\lambda_i)$. We use these…

This paper investigates certain classes of entire functions in C^n that, together with their partial derivatives, share a finite set consisting of three elements. By employing normality criteria, we study the behaviour of such functions and…

For every $q\in(0,1)$ and $0\le \alpha<1$ we define a class of analytic functions, the so-called $q$-starlike functions of order $\alpha$, on the open unit disk. We study this class of functions and explore some inclusion properties with…

A hyperbinary partition of the nonnegative integer n is a partition where every part is a power of 2 and every part appears at most twice. We give three applications of the length generating function for such partitions, denoted by h_q(n).…

The partition functions $P(n,m,p)$, the number of integer partitions of $n$ into exactly $m$ parts with each part at most $p$, and $Q(n,m,p)$, the number of integer partitons of $n$ into exactly $m$ distinct parts with each part at most…

Consider a_1,a_2,...,a_n, arbitrary elements of R. We characterize those real functions f that decompose into the sum of a_j-periodic functions, i.e., f=f_1+...+f_n with D_{a_j}f(x):=f(x+a_j)-f(x)=0. We show that f has such a decomposition…

Let $[a,b]\subset\mathbb{R}$ be a non empty and non singleton closed interval and $P=\{a=x_0<\cdots<x_n=b\}$ is a partition of it. Then $f:I\to\mathbb{R}$ is said to be a function of $r$-bounded variation, if the expression…
