Almost perfect nonlinear (APN) functions play a pivotal role in cryptography, particularly in securing symmetric key algorithms against differential attacks. Their algebraic properties, including ...

This article reviews work on the planning of experiments with response functions nonlinear in some parameters. Apart from older work on dilution series experiments and quantal bioassays, this field is ...

Lookup tables and Taylor series are two common methods for interpolating between experimentally gathered data or for generating a known function such as a sine wave. This article proposes a third ...

In a groundbreaking leap for photonics, scientists have created the world’s first programmable nonlinear photonic waveguide, a device that can switch between multiple optical functions on a single ...

This allows multiple optical functions on a single chip, unlocking new possibilities for tunable light sources, optical computing, and quantum communication systems.
