Negabent functions were introduced as a generalization of bent functions, which have applications in coding theory and cryptography. In this paper, we have extended the notion of negabent functions to the functions defined from…

Negabent functions as a class of generalized bent functions have attracted a lot of attention recently due to their applications in cryptography and coding theory. In this paper, we consider the constructions of negabent functions over…

We present necessary and sufficient conditions for a Boolean function to be a negabent function for both even and odd number of variables, which demonstrate the relationship between negabent functions and bent functions. By using these…

In the literature, few constructions of $n$-variable rotation symmetric bent functions have been presented, which either have restriction on $n$ or have algebraic degree no more than $4$. In this paper, for any even integer $n=2m\ge2$, a…

Bent functions, or equivalently, Hadamard difference sets in the elementary Abelian group $(\gf(2^{2m}), +)$, have been employed to construct symmetric and quasi-symmetric designs having the symmetric difference property. The main objective…

Negabent Boolean functions are defined by having a flat magnitude spectrum under the nega-Hadamard transform. They exist in both even and odd dimensions, and the subclass of functions that are simultaneously bent and negabent…

Bent functions as optimal combinatorial objects are difficult to characterize and construct. In the literature, bent idempotents are a special class of bent functions and few constructions have been presented, which are restricted by the…

Bent functions are balanced by restricting their domains to vectors with either even or odd Hamming weights, which ensures an equal number of pre-images for both, 0 and 1. Using the previous fact, we can construct bent functions on two…

Bent functions, which are maximally nonlinear Boolean functions with even numbers of variables and whose Hamming distance to the set of all affine functions equals $2^{n-1}\pm 2^{\frac{n}{2}-1}$, were introduced by Rothaus in 1976 when he…

Bent functions are Boolean functions in an even number of variables that are indicators of Hadamard difference sets in elementary abelian 2-groups. A bent function in m variables is said to be normal if it is constant on an affine space of…

It has been an active research issue for many years to construct new bent functions. For $k$ odd with $\gcd(n, k)=1$, and $a\in\mathbb{F}_{3^n}^{*}$, the function $f(x)=Tr(ax^{\frac{3^k+1}{2}})$ is weakly regular bent over…

In the literature, few $n$-variable rotation symmetric bent functions have been constructed. In this paper, we present two infinite classes of rotation symmetric bent functions on $\mathbb{F}_2^{n}$ of the two forms: {\rm (i)}…

Much work has been devoted to bent functions in odd characteristic, but there still remains a gap between our knowledge of binary and nonbinary bent functions. In the first part of this paper, we attempt to partially bridge this gap by…

Generalized bent (gbent) functions is a class of functions $f: \mathbb{Z}_2^n \rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_q$, where $q \geq 2$ is a positive integer, that generalizes a concept of classical bent functions through their co-domain extension. A lot…

Bent functions of the form $\mathbb{F}_2^n\rightarrow\mathbb{Z}_q$, where $q\geqslant2$ is a positive integer, are known as generalized bent (gbent) functions. Gbent functions for which it is possible to define a dual gbent function are…

The necessary and sufficient conditions for a class of functions $f:\mathbb{Z}_2^n \rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_q$, where $q \geq 2$ is an even positive integer, have been recently identified for $q=4$ and $q=8$. In this article we give an…

Whereas the design and properties of bent and plateaued functions have been frequently addressed during the past few decades, there are only a few design methods of so-called 5-valued spectra Boolean functions whose Walsh spectra takes the…

In Pasalic et al., IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory 69 (2023), 2702--2712, and in Anbar, Meidl, Cryptogr. Commun. 10 (2018), 235--249, two different vectorial negabent and vectorial bent-negabent concepts are introduced, which leads to seemingly…

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 difference to many recent articles that deal with generalized bent (gbent) functions $f:\mathbb{Z}_2^n \rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_q$ for certain small valued $q\in \{4,8,16 \}$, we give a complete description of these functions for both $n$…
