To determine the dimension of null space of any given linearized polynomial is one of vital problems in finite field theory, with concern to design of modern symmetric cryptosystems. But, the known general theory for this task is much far…

We show a partial Boolean function $f$ together with an input $x\in f^{-1}\left(*\right)$ such that both $C_{\bar{0}}\left(f,x\right)$ and $C_{\bar{1}}\left(f,x\right)$ are at least $C\left(f\right)^{2-o\left(1\right)}$. Due to recent…

A real polynomial $P(X_1,..., X_n)$ sign represents $f: A^n \to \{0,1\}$ if for every $(a_1, ..., a_n) \in A^n$, the sign of $P(a_1,...,a_n)$ equals $(-1)^{f(a_1,...,a_n)}$. Such sign representations are well-studied in computer science and…
