A power permutation of a finite field F is a permutation of F whose functional form is x -> x^d for some exponent d. Power permutations are used in cryptography, and the exponent d must be chosen so that the permutation is highly nonlinear, that is, not easily approximated by linear functions. The Walsh spectrum […]

A frame in a Euclidean space is a spanning set, which can be overdetermined. Large frames are used for redundant signal transmission, which allows for error correction. An important parameter of frames is coherence, which is maximal absolute value of the cosine of the angle between two frame vectors: the smaller it is, the closer […] |

One of the most important axioms in analyzing voting systems is that of "neutrality", which stipulates that the system should treat all candidates symmetrically. Even though this doesn't always directly apply (such as in primary systems or those with intentional incumbent protection), it is extremely important both in theory and practice.If the voting systems in […] |

This talk is based on joint work with Jens Marklof, and with Roland Roeder. The three distance theorem states that, if x is any real number and N is any positive integer, the points x, 2x, … , Nx modulo 1 partition the unit interval into component intervals having at most 3 distinct lengths. We […] |
