In 2020, Budaghyan, Helleseth and Kaleyski [IEEE TIT 66(11): 7081-7087, 2020] considered an infinite family of quadrinomials over $\mathbb{F}_{2^{n}}$ of the form $x^3+a(x^{2^s+1})^{2^k}+bx^{3\cdot 2^m}+c(x^{2^{s+m}+2^m})^{2^k}$, where…

In this paper, we present two new infinite classes of APN functions over $\gf_{{2^{2m}}}$ and $\gf_{{2^{3m}}}$, respectively. The first one is with bivariate form and obtained by adding special terms,…

In 2021, Calderini et al. introduced a construction for APN functions on $\mathbb{F}_{2^{2m}}$ in bivariate form $$ f(x,y)=\big(xy,\, x^{2^r+1} + x^{2^{r+m/2}} y^{2^{m/2}} + bxy^{2^r} + cy^{2^r+1}\big),\quad r < m/2,\quad \gcd(r, m) = 1. $$…

In this paper we give a new family of APN trinomials of the form $X^{2^k+1} + (\mathsf{tr}^{n}_{m}(X))^{2^k+1}$ on $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$ where $\mathsf{gcd}(k,n)=1$ and $n = 2m = 4t$, and prove its important properties. The family satisfies…

Partially APN functions attract researchers' particular interest recently. It plays an important role in studying APN functions. In this paper, based on the multivariate method and resultant elimination, we propose several new infinite…

We present an infinite family of quadratic APN functions on a finite field of dimension over GF(2) divisible by 3.

We present two infinite families of APN functions where the degree of the field is divisible by 3 but not 9. Our families contain two already known families as special cases. We also discuss the inequivalence proof (by computation) which…

APN functions play a fundamental role in cryptography against attacks on block ciphers. Several families of quadratic APN functions have been proposed in the recent years, whose construction relies on the existence of specific families of…

We prove that functions $f:\f{2^m} \to \f{2^m}$ of the form $f(x)=x^{-1}+g(x)$ where $g$ is any non-affine polynomial are APN on at most a finite number of fields $\f{2^m}$. Furthermore we prove that when the degree of $g$ is less then 7…

We systematically analyze a class of hexanomial functions over finite fields of characteristic $2$ proposed by Dillon (2006) as candidates for almost perfect nonlinear (APN) functions, significantly extending earlier partial-APN results.…

Recently, the investigation of Partially APN functions has attracted a lot of attention. In this paper, with the help of resultant elimination and MAGMA, we propose several new infinite classes of 0-APN power functions over…

It is well known that a quadratic function defined on a finite field of odd degree is almost bent (AB) if and only if it is almost perfect nonlinear (APN). For the even degree case there is no apparent relationship between the values in the…

Using recent results on solving the equation $X^{2^k+1}+X+a=0$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$, we address an open question raised by the first author in WAIFI 2014 concerning the APN-ness of the Kasami functions $x\mapsto…

In a recent paper, it is shown that functions of the form $L_1(x^3)+L_2(x^9)$, where $L_1$ and $L_2$ are linear, are a good source for construction of new infinite families of APN functions. In the present work we study necessary and…

In this paper, by the Hasse-Weil bound, we determine the necessary and sufficient condition on coefficients $a_1,a_2,a_3\in\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$ with $n=2m$ such that $f(x) = {x}^{3\cdot2^m} + a_1x^{2^{m+1}+1} + a_2 x^{2^m+2} + a_3x^3$ is an…

In this extended abstract, we computationally check and list the CCZ-inequivalent APN functions from infinite families on $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ for n from 6 to 11. These functions are selected with simplest coefficients from CCZ-inequivalent…

We consider exceptional APN functions on ${\bf F}_{2^m}$, which by definition are functions that are not APN on infinitely many extensions of ${\bf F}_{2^m}$. Our main result is that polynomial functions of odd degree are not exceptional,…

In this paper, we investigate the power functions $F(x)=x^d$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{2^{4n}}$, where $n$ is a positive integer and $d=2^{3n}+2^{2n}+2^{n}-1$. It is proved that $F(x)=x^d$ is APcN at certain $c$'s in…

The investigation of partially APN functions has attracted a lot of research interest recently. In this paper, we present several new infinite classes of 0-APN power functions over $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$ by using the multivariate method and…

Establishing the CCZ-equivalence of a pair of APN functions is generally quite difficult. In some cases, when seeking to show that a putative new infinite family of APN functions is CCZ inequivalent to an already known family, we rely on…
