Algebraic immunity has been proposed as an important property of Boolean functions. To resist algebraic attack, a Boolean function should possess high algebraic immunity. It is well known now that the algebraic immunity of an $n$-variable…
To resist algebraic attack, a Boolean function should possess good algebraic immunity (AI). Several papers constructed symmetric functions with the maximum algebraic immunity $\lceil \frac{n}{2}\rceil $. In this correspondence we prove that…
Algebraic immunity of Boolean function $f$ is defined as the minimal degree of a nonzero $g$ such that $fg=0$ or $(f+1)g=0$. Given a positive even integer $n$, it is found that the weight distribution of any $n$-variable symmetric Boolean…
From the motivation of algebraic attacks to stream and block ciphers([1,2,7,13,14,15]), the concept of {\em algebraic immunity} (AI) was introduced in [21] and studied in [3,5,10,11,17,18,19,20,21]. High algebraic immunity is a necessary…
Constructing $2m$-variable Boolean functions with optimal algebraic immunity based on decomposition of additive group of the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{2^{2m}}$ seems to be a promising approach since Tu and Deng's work. In this paper, we…
We describe a new class of Boolean functions which provide the presently best known trade-off between low computational complexity, nonlinearity and (fast) algebraic immunity. In particular, for $n\leq 20$, we show that there are functions…
We propose a general approach to construct cryptographic significant Boolean functions of $(r+1)m$ variables based on the additive decomposition $\mathbb{F}_{2^{rm}}\times\mathbb{F}_{2^m}$ of the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{2^{(r+1)m}}$,…
We describe several families of efficiently implementable Boolean functions achieving provable trade-offs between resiliency, nonlinearity, and algebraic immunity. In particular, the following statement holds for each of the function…
In this paper, we explicitly construct a large class of symmetric Boolean functions on $2k$ variables with algebraic immunity not less than $d$, where integer $k$ is given arbitrarily and $d$ is a given suffix of $k$ in binary…
In this note, we go further on the "basis exchange" idea presented in \cite{LiNa1} by using Mobious inversion. We show that the matrix $S_1(f)S_0(f)^{-1}$ has a nice form when $f$ is chosen to be the majority function, where $S_1(f)$ is the…
The search for Boolean functions that can withstand the main crypyographic attacks is essential. In 2008, Carlet and Feng studied a class of functions which have optimal cryptographic properties with the exception of nonlinearity for which…
Let A be the integral closure of the ring of polynomials CC[t], within the field of algebraic functions in one variable. We show that A interprets the ring of integers. This contrasts with the analogue for finite fields, proved to have a…
Algebraic and fast algebraic attacks are power tools to analyze stream ciphers. A class of symmetric Boolean functions with maximum algebraic immunity were found vulnerable to fast algebraic attacks at EUROCRYPT'06. Recently, the notion of…
Boolean functions with high algebraic immunity are important cryptographic primitives in some stream ciphers. In this paper, two methodologies for constructing binary minimal codes from sets, Boolean functions and vectorial Boolean…
In this paper we construct an entire function of two variables having the property that its values and its partial derivatives of any order at any distinct algebraic points are algebraically independent. Such an entire function is generated…
This manuscript includes some classical results we select apart from the new results we've found on the Analysis of Boolean Functions and Fourier-Entropy-Influence conjecture. We try to ensure the self-completeness of this work so that…
We present the algebra of assume-guarantee (AG) contracts. We define contracts, provide new as well as known operations, and show how these operations are related. Contracts are functorial: any Boolean algebra has an associated contract…
A Boolean function $g$ is said to be an optimal predictor for another Boolean function $f$, if it minimizes the probability that $f(X^{n})\neq g(Y^{n})$ among all functions, where $X^{n}$ is uniform over the Hamming cube and $Y^{n}$ is…
We give complete, finite quasiequational axiomatisations for algebras of unary partial functions under the operations of composition, domain, antidomain, range and intersection. This completes the extensive programme of classifying algebras…
We construct a complex entire function with arbitrary number of variables which has the following property: The infinite set consisting of all the values of all its partial derivatives of any orders at all algebraic points, including zero…
