In this article, we study bent functions on $\mathbb{F}_2^{2m}$ of the form $f(x,y) = x \cdot \phi(y) + h(y)$, where $x \in \mathbb{F}_2^{m-1} $ and $ y \in \mathbb{F}_2^{m+1}$, which form the generalized Maiorana-McFarland class (denoted…
Generalized bent (gbent) functions from an $n$-variable Boolean space to $\mathbb{Z}_{2^k}$ are central in cryptography and sequence design. Instead of the usual binary decomposition, we introduce a $2^\ell$-adic representation, for $k=\ell…
