Abstract

Planar functions are of great importance in the constructions of DES-like iterated ciphers, error-correcting codes, signal sets and the area of mathematics. They are defined over finite fields of odd characteristic originally and generalized by Y. Zhou \cite{Zhou} in even characteristic. In 2016, L. Qu \cite{Q} proposed a new approach to constructing quadratic planar functions over $\F_{2^n}$. Very recently, D. Bartoli and M. Timpanella \cite{Bartoli} characterized the condition on coefficients $a,b$ such that the function $f_{a,b}(x)=ax^{2^{2m}+1}+bx^{2^m+1} \in\F_{2^{3m}}[x]$ is a planar function over $\F_{2^{3m}}$ by the Hasse-Weil bound. In this paper, using the Lang-Weil bound, a generalization of the Hasse-Weil bound, and the new approach introduced in \cite{Q}, we completely characterize the necessary and sufficient conditions on coefficients of four classes of planar functions over $\F_{q^k}$, where $q=2^m$ with $m$ sufficiently large (see Theorem \ref{main}). The first and last classes of them are over $\F_{q^2}$ and $\F_{q^4}$ respectively, while the other two classes are over $\F_{q^3}$. One class over $\F_{q^3}$ is an extension of $f_{a,b}(x)$ investigated in \cite{Bartoli}, while our proofs seem to be much simpler. In addition, although the planar binomial over $\F_{q^2}$ of our results is finally a known planar monomial, we also answer the necessity at the same time and solve partially an open problem for the binomial case proposed in \cite{Q}.

Shrinking dynamic on multidimensional tropical series

Let $Ω\subset\mathbb R^n$ be a compact convex domain. An $Ω$-tropical series is a nonnegative, concave, integral-slope, piecewise-affine function on $Ω$ that vanishes on $\partialΩ$. For a finite set $P\subsetΩ^\circ$, we study the least such function above prescribed initial data whose corner locus contains $P$. It is obtained by repeatedly applying one-point shrinking operators $G_p$. We prove that every fair order of these operators stabilizes after finitely many nontrivial steps. We also describe an event-driven implementation that records the lowest monomials at each point and updates only affected watcher lists. Finally, we show that, on every compact subset of $Ω^\circ$, the resulting dynamics can be approximated by a finite path whose intermediate tropical hypersurfaces have only mild singularities on that compact set; equivalently, the corresponding local cells of the dual regular subdivision contain no lattice points other than their vertices.

A stacky $p$-adic Riemann--Hilbert correspondence on Hitchin-small locus

Let $C$ be an algebraically closed perfectoid field over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with the ring of integer $\mathcal{O}_C$ and the infinitesimal thickening $\Ainf$. Let $\mathfrak X$ be a semi-stable formal scheme over $\mathcal{O}_C$ with a fixed flat lifting $\widetilde{\mathfrak X}$ over $\Ainf$. Let $X$ be the generic fiber of $\mathfrak{X}$ and $\widetilde X$ be its lifting over $\BdRp$ induced by $\widetilde{\mathfrak X}$. Let $\MIC_r(\widetilde X)^{{\rm H}\text{-small}}$ and $\rL\rS_r(X,\BBdRp)^{{\rm H}\text{-small}}$ be the $v$-stacks of rank-$r$ Hitchin-small integrable connections on $X_{\et}$ and $\BBdRp$-local systems on $X_{v}$, respectively. In this paper, we establish an equivalence between these two stacks by introducing a new period sheaf with connection $(\calO\bB_{\dR,\pd}^+,\rd)$ on $X_{v}$.

A refinement of the coherence conjecture of Pappas and Rapoport

The coherence conjecture of Pappas and Rapoport, proved by Zhu, asserts the equality of dimensions for the global sections of a line bundle over a spherical Schubert variety in the affine Grassmannian and those of another line bundle over a certain union of Schubert varieties in a partial affine flag variety. We refine this equality of dimensions to an isomorphism of representations. The comparison is established by introducing a parahoric Bruhat-Tits group scheme $\mathcal{G}$ over the affine line, ramified at 0. We further strengthen this comparison by equipping any line bundle on the global Schubert variety of $\mathcal{G}$ with a unique equivariant structure under the global jet group scheme. As an application, we obtain new relations among affine Demazure modules.
