A set of Boolean functions is called a bent set if the sum of any two distinct members is a bent function. We show that any bent set yields a homogeneous system of linked symmetric...
In this paper we study the neighbourhood of 15-variable Patterson-Wiedemann (PW) functions, i.e., the functions that differ by a small Hamming distance from the PW functions in te...
An important question in the construction of orthogonal arrays is what the minimal size of an array is when all other parameters are fixed. In this paper, we will provide a genera...
Scalar quantizers with uniform encoders and channel optimized decoders are studied for uniform sources and binary symmetric channels. It is shown that the Natural Binary Code and ...
We present a new optimization technique that yields the first FPTAS for several geometric problems. These problems reduce to optimizing a sum of non-negative, constant description...
