Small note on the first image:



I wish romans had a number for 0.




Hint 1 for the squares image:



It is mostly an arithmetic problem.



Hint 2 for the squares image:



Color and relative position matter.



Hint 3 for the squares image (alternative image that should help a little bit):




Image Hint



Hint 4 for the squares image:



This is a Mathematical Rebus, so what about changing the squares by numbers? Which? It's your work to discover.




Answer



Since this remains unsolved, I proceed to answer the question.


Most of it had been solved, so I only put together the already given answers and add the missing clue.


First clue, by Gareth:




is 0 when a=0 and increases by 1 each time a increases by 0.001. So it's floor(1000a) which, given all the Roman numerals, I should probably write as $\lfloor Ma\rfloor$.



Second clue:



The trick is using the colors. White is #FFFFFF and yellow #FFFF00. It was intended to be FFFFFF module FFFF00, or $FFFFFF_{FFFF00}=FFFFFF \mod FFFF00 \equiv FF$



Third clue, also by Gareth:



is probably "voltage, in volts, over resistance, in ohms", yielding "current, in amps" or $I_A$.




All together, the answer is:



Maffia, as actually Gareth already got.
