We study the complexity of learning and approximation of self-bounding functions over the uniform distribution on the Boolean hypercube ${0,1}^n$. Informally, a function $f:{0,1}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is self-bounding if for every $x…

Let $f$ be a real-valued, degree-$d$ Boolean function defined on the $n$-dimensional Boolean cube $\{\pm 1\}^{n}$, and $f(x) = \sum_{S \subset \{1,\ldots,d\}} \widehat{f}(S) \prod_{k \in S} x_k$ its Fourier-Walsh expansion. The main result…

We analyze the Fourier growth, i.e. the $L_1$ Fourier weight at level $k$ (denoted $L_{1,k}$), of various well-studied classes of "structured" $\mathbb{F}_2$-polynomials. This study is motivated by applications in pseudorandomness, in…

Let $\mathscr{F}_{n,d}$ be the class of all functions $f:\{-1,1\}^n\to[-1,1]$ on the $n$-dimensional discrete hypercube of degree at most $d$. In the first part of this paper, we prove that any (deterministic or randomized) algorithm which…

Given a function $f$ on $\mathbb{F}_2^n$, we study the following problem. What is the largest affine subspace $\mathcal{U}$ such that when restricted to $\mathcal{U}$, all the non-trivial Fourier coefficients of $f$ are very small? For the…

Fourier analysis on the discrete hypercubes $\{-1,1\}^n$ has found numerous applications in learning theory. A recent breakthrough involves the use of a classical result from Fourier analysis, the Bohnenblust--Hille inequality, in the…

We study Boolean functions on the $p$-biased hypercube $(\{0,1\}^n,\mu_p^n)$ through the lens of Fourier (spectral) entropy, i.e. the Shannon entropy of the squared $p$-biased Fourier coefficients. Motivated by recent restriction-based…

This paper considers the Fourier transform over the slice of the Boolean hypercube. We prove a relationship between the Fourier coefficients of a function over the slice, and the Fourier coefficients of its restrictions. As an application,…

Let $\mathcal F$ be either the set of all bounded holomorphic functions or the set of all $m$-homogeneous polynomials on the unit ball of $\ell\_r$. We give a systematic study of the sets of all $u\in\ell\_r$ for which the monomial…

This paper studies two classical inequalities, namely the Hausdorff-Young inequality and equal-exponent Young's convolution inequality, for discrete functions supported in the binary cube $\{0,1\}^d\subset\mathbb{Z}^d$. We characterize the…

In this note we consider Boolean functions defined on the discrete cube equipped with a biased product probability measure. We prove that if the spectrum of such a function is concentrated on the first two Fourier levels, then the function…

We sharpen and generalize the dimension growth bounds for the number of points of bounded height lying on an irreducible algebraic variety of degree $d$, over any global field. In particular, we focus on the affine hypersurface situation by…

In this note we compare two measures of the complexity of a class $\mathcal F$ of Boolean functions studied in (unconditional) pseudorandomness: $\mathcal F$'s ability to distinguish between biased and uniform coins (the coin problem), and…

Let f:{-1,1}^n -> R be a real function on the hypercube, given by its discrete Fourier expansion, or, equivalently, represented as a multilinear polynomial. We say that it is Boolean if its image is in {-1,1}. We show that every function on…

We use geometric and cohomological methods to show that given a degree bound for membership in ideals of a fixed degree type in the polynomial ring P=k[x_0,..., x_d], one obtains a good generic degree bound for membership in the tight…

A trigonometric series strongly bounded at two points and with coefficients forming a log-quasidecreasing sequence is necessarily the Fourier series of a function belonging to all $L^{p}$ spaces, $1\leq p < \infty$. We obtain new results on…

Let $\mathbb{H}$ be a $(d-1)$-dimensonal hyperbolic paraboloid in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and let $Ef$ be the Fourier extension operator associated to $\mathbb{H},$ with $f$ supported in $B^{d-1}(0,2)$. We prove that $\|Ef\|_{L^p (B(0,R))} \leq…

This dissertation studies the Fourier restriction, which is to find the range of the constants p, q such that the L^q norm on a chosen subset of the Fourier domain is bounded above by the L^p norm in a spacial domain, up to some constant…

Partition functions arise in statistical physics and probability theory as the normalizing constant of Gibbs measures and in combinatorics and graph theory as graph polynomials. For instance the partition functions of the hard-core model…

We prove various extensions of the Coifman-Rubio de Francia-Semmes multiplier theorem to operator-valued multipliers on Banach function spaces. Our results involve a new boundedness condition on sets of operators which we call…
