Hermitian algebraic functions were introduced by D. Catlin and J. D'Angelo under the name of "globalizable metrics". Catlin and D'Angelo proved that any Hermitian algebraic function without nontrivial ...
Let $U$ be an open semi-algebraic subset of $\mathbf{R}^n$ and let $X$ be a closed analytic subset of $U$ which is also a semi-algebraic set (e.g., $U = \mathbf{R}^n ...
Almost perfect nonlinear (APN) functions play a pivotal role in cryptography, particularly in securing symmetric key algorithms against differential attacks. Their algebraic properties, including ...
