Planar functions over finite fields give rise to finite projective planes. They were also used in the constructions of DES-like iterated ciphers, error-correcting codes, and codebooks. They were originally defined only in finite fields with…
For each non-constant Boolean function $q$, Klapper introduced the notion of $q$-transforms of Boolean functions. The {\em $q$-transform} of a Boolean function $f$ is related to the Hamming distances from $f$ to the functions obtainable…
We consider negabent Boolean functions that have Trace representation. We completely characterize quadratic negabent monomial functions. We show the relation between negabent functions and bent functions via a quadratic function. Using this…
In this paper, we present a construction of linear codes over $\f_{2^t}$ from Boolean functions, which is a generalization of Ding's method \cite[Theorem 9]{Ding15}. Based on this construction, we give two classes of linear codes…
In the present work, new classes of wavelet functions are presented in the framework of Clifford analysis. Firstly, some classes of new monogenic polynomials are provided based on 2-parameters weight functions. Such classes extend the well…
We determine all composition-closed equational classes of Boolean functions. These classes provide a natural generalization of clones and iterative algebras: they are closed under composition, permutation and identification…
In this letter, we give a characterization for a generic construction of bent functions. This characterization enables us to obtain another efficient construction of bent functions and to give a positive answer on a problem of bent…
The Walsh--Hadamard spectrum of a bent function uniquely determines a dual function. The dual of a bent function is also bent. A bent function that is equal to its dual is called a self-dual function. The Hamming distance between a bent…
This paper introduces a novel framework for constructing $C^r$ basis functions for polynomial spline spaces of degree $d$ over arbitrary planar polygonal partitions, overturning the belief that basis functions cannot be constructed on…
In the first part of this paper [16], some results on how to compute the flat spectra of Boolean constructions w.r.t. the transforms {I,H}^n, {H,N}^n and {I,H,N}^n were presented, and the relevance of Local Complementation to the quadratic…
The main aim of this paper is to provide a unified approach to deriving identities for the Bernstein polynomials using a novel generating function. We derive various functional equations and differential equations using this generating…
The concatenation of four Boolean bent functions $f=f_1||f_2||f_3||f_4$ is bent if and only if the dual bent condition $f_1^* + f_2^* + f_3^* + f_4^* =1$ is satisfied. However, to specify four bent functions satisfying this duality…
We study vectorial functions with maximal number of bent components in this paper. We first study the Walsh transform and nonlinearity of $F(x)=x^{2^e}h(\Tr_{2^{2m}/2^m}(x))$, where $e\geq0$ and $h(x)$ is a permutation over $\F_{2^m}$. If…
Bent functions are maximally nonlinear Boolean functions with an even number of variables, which include a subclass of functions, the so-called hyper-bent functions whose properties are stronger than bent functions and a complete…
Generalisations of the bent property of a boolean function are presented, by proposing spectral analysis with respect to a well-chosen set of local unitary transforms. Quadratic boolean functions are related to simple graphs and it is shown…
In 2017, Zhang et al. proposed a question (not open problem) and two open problems in [IEEE TIT 63 (8): 5336--5349, 2017] about constructing bent functions by using Rothaus' construction. In this note, we prove that the sufficient…
This note contains a simple construction of complete sets of MUBs, using bent functions to write the new basis vectors as explicit linear combinations of the standard basis.
Two methods of constructing 2D Toda $\tau$-functions that are generating functions for certain geometrical invariants of a combinatorial nature are related. The first involves generation of paths in the Cayley graph of the symmetric group…
Association schemes play an important role in algebraic combinatorics and have important applications in coding theory, graph theory and design theory. The methods to construct association schemes by using bent functions have been…
We obtain q-analogues of the Sylvester, Ces\`aro, Pasternack, and Bateman polynomials. We also derive generating functions for these polynomials.
