Let $q$ be an odd prime power. Let $F_1(x)=x^{d_1}$ and $F_2(x)=x^{d_2}$ be power mappings over $\mathrm{GF}(q^2)$, where $d_1=q-1$ and $d_2=d_1+\frac{q^2-1}{2}=\frac{(q-1)(q+3)}{2}$. In this paper, we study the the boomerang uniformity of…
In this paper, we study the boomerang spectrum of the power mapping $F(x)=x^{k(q-1)}$ over ${\mathbb F}_{q^2}$, where $q=p^m$, $p$ is a prime, $m$ is a positive integer and $\gcd(k,q+1)=1$. We first determine the differential spectrum of…
In the literature, there are many APN-like functions that generalize the APN properties or are similar to APN functions, e.g. locally-APN functions, 0-APN functions or those with boomerang uniformity 2. In this paper, we study the problem…
In this paper, we investigate the differential and boomerang properties of a class of binomial $F_{r,u}(x) = x^r(1 + u\chi(x))$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$, where $r = \frac{p^n+1}{4}$, $p^n \equiv 3 \pmod{4}$, and $\chi(x) =…
Recently, several studies have shown that when $q\equiv3\pmod{4}$, for certain choices of $r$, the function $F_r(x)=x^r+x^{r+\frac{q-1}{2}}$ defined over $\Fq$ is locally-APN and has boomerang uniformity at most~$2$. In this paper, we…
This paper makes the first bridge between the classical differential/boomerang uniformity and the newly introduced $c$-differential uniformity. We show that the boomerang uniformity of an odd APN function is given by the maximum of the…
Recent studies on binomials of the form $F_r(x) = x^r(1 + \chi(x))$ over $\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$ have shown that these functions can exhibit very low boomerang uniformity. In this paper, we focus on the specific behavior of such binomials in…
Let $q$ be an odd prime power with $q\equiv 3\ ({\rm{mod}}\ 4)$. In this paper, we study the differential and boomerang properties of the function $F_{2,u}(x)=x^2\big(1+u\eta(x)\big)$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$, where $u\in\mathbb{F}_{q}^*$ and…
It was shown by Boukerrou et al.~[IACR Trans. Symmetric Cryptol. 1 (2020), 331--362] that the $F$-boomerang uniformity (which is the same as the second-order zero differential uniformity in even characteristic) of perfect nonlinear…
Permutation polynomials over finite fields are fundamental objects as they are used in various theoretical and practical applications in cryptography, coding theory, combinatorial design, and related topics. This family of polynomials…
Modifying the binary inverse function in a variety of ways, like swapping two output points has been known to produce a $4$-differential uniform permutation function. Recently, in \cite{Li19} it was shown that this swapped version of the…
Only three classes of Almost Perfect Nonlinear (for short, APN) power functions over odd characteristic finite fields have been investigated in the literature, and their differential spectra were determined. The differential uniformity of…
In this article, we focus on the concept of locally-APN-ness (``APN" is the abbreviation of the well-known notion of Almost Perfect Nonlinear) introduced by Blondeau, Canteaut, and Charpin, which makes the corpus of S-boxes somehow larger…
We discuss the second-order differential uniformity of vectorial Boolean functions. The closely related notion of second-order zero differential uniformity has recently been studied in connection to resistance to the boomerang attack. We…
The Feistel Boomerang Connectivity Table and the related notion of $F$-Boomerang uniformity (also known as the second-order zero differential uniformity) has been recently introduced by Boukerrou et al.~\cite{Bouk}. These tools shall…
Let $\gf_{p^n}$ denote the finite field containing $p^n$ elements, where $n$ is a positive integer and $p$ is a prime. The function $f_u(x)=x^{\frac{p^n+3}{2}}+ux^2$ over $\gf_{p^n}[x]$ with $u\in\gf_{p^n}\setminus\{0,\pm1\}$ was recently…
We study a class of general quadrinomials over the field of size $2^{2m}$ with odd $m$ and characterize conditions under which they are permutations with the best boomerang uniformity, a new and important parameter related to…
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…
As a generalization of Dillon's APN permutation, butterfly structure and generalizations have been of great interest since they generate permutations with the best known differential and nonlinear properties over the field of size…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of characteristic $p$. In this paper we prove that the $c$-Boomerang Uniformity, $c \neq 0$, for all permutation monomials $x^d$, where $d > 1$ and $p \nmid d$, is bounded by $d^2$. Further, we utilize…
