Exhibiting an explicit Boolean function with a large high-order nonlinearity is an important problem in cryptography, coding theory, and computational complexity. We prove lower bounds on the second-order, third-order, and higher-order…

We prove that for any norm |*| in the d-dimensional real vector space V and for any odd n>0 there is a non-negative polynomial p(x), x in V of degree 2n such that p^{1/2n}(x) < |x| < c(n,d) p^{1/2n}(x), where c(n,d)={n+d-1 choose n}^{1/2n}.…

Bent functions are balanced by restricting their domains to vectors with either even or odd Hamming weights, which ensures an equal number of pre-images for both, 0 and 1. Using the previous fact, we can construct bent functions on two…

We consider a semilinear elliptic equation in a bounded domain with zero boundary conditions. The nonlinearity is discontinuous and monotone, but it is not a Carath\'eodory's function. The existence theorem has been proved.

We consider negabent Boolean functions that have Trace representation. We completely characterize quadratic negabent monomial functions. We show the relation between negabent functions and bent functions via a quadratic function. Using this…

We discuss equivalence conditions on the non-existence of non-trivial meromorphic solution to the Fermat Diophantine equations $f^m(z)+g^n(z)=1$ with integers $m,n\geq2$, from which other approaches to prove little Picard theorem are…

This paper has two parts. We first survey recent efforts on the Bloom conjecture which still remains open in the case of complex dimension at least 4. Bloom's conjecture concerns the equivalence of three regular types. There is a more…

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…

In this paper, the relation between binomial Niho bent functions discovered by Dobbertin et al. and o-polynomials that give rise to the Subiaco and Adelaide classes of hyperovals is found. This allows to expand the class of bent functions…

Classical planar functions are functions from a finite field to itself and give rise to finite projective planes. They exist however only for fields of odd characteristic. We study their natural counterparts in characteristic two, which we…

In this paper, we show that the exponent set of nonnegative primitive tensors with order m(\geq 3) and dimension n is {1,2,\ldots, (n-1)^2+1}; and propose some open problems for further research.

For a based manifold (M,*), the question of whether the surjection Diff(M,*) \rightarrow \pi_0 Diff(M,*) admits a section is an example of a Nielsen realization problem. This question is related to a question about flat connections on…

We prove that the Dirichlet problem for the Lane-Emden equation in a half-space has no positive solution which is monotone in the normal direction. As a consequence, this problem does not admit any positive classical solution which is…

We disprove a conjecture of Bombieri regarding univalent functions in the unit disk in some previously unknown cases. The key step in the argument is showing that the global minimum of the real function…

We prove, by topological methods, new results on the existence of nonzero positive weak solutions for a class of multi-parameter second order elliptic systems subject to functional boundary conditions. The setting is fairly general and…

In this paper, we show that there is no vectorial Boolean function of degree 4e, with e satisfaying certain conditions, which is APN over infinitely many extensions of its field of definition. It is a new step in the proof of the conjecture…

Let $n=2m$. In the present paper, we study the binomial Boolean functions of the form $$f_{a,b}(x) = \mathrm{Tr}_1^{n}(a x^{2^m-1 }) +\mathrm{Tr}_1^{2}(bx^{\frac{2^n-1}{3} }), $$ where $m$ is an even positive integer, $a\in…

We establish existence results of Hartmann-Stampacchia type for a class of variational-hemivariationalinequalities on closed and convex sets (either bounded or unbounded) in a Hilbert space.

Let $F$ be a vectorial Boolean function from $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ to $\mathbb{F}_2^m$, with $m \geq n$. We define $F$ as an embedding if $F$ is injective. In this paper, we examine the component functions of $F$, focusing on constant and…

We propose a representation of boolean bent functions by bent rectangles, that is, by special matrices with restrictions on rows and columns. Using this representation, we exhibit new classes of bent functions, give an algorithm to…
