For any positive integers $n=2k$ and $m$ such that $m\geq k$, in this paper we show the maximal number of bent components of any $(n,m)$-functions is equal to $2^{m}-2^{m-k}$, and for those attaining the equality, their algebraic degree is…

We study generalizations of two classical primary constructions of Boolean bent functions, namely the Maiorana-McFarland ($MM$) class and the (Desarguesian) partial spread ($\mathcal{PS}_{ap}$) class. The construction of bent functions…

We show that the method of maximum likelihood (MML) provides us with an efficient scheme for reconstruction of quantum channels from incomplete measurement data. By construction this scheme always results in estimations of channels that are…
