To resist algebraic attack, a Boolean function should possess good algebraic immunity (AI). Several papers constructed symmetric functions with the maximum algebraic immunity $\lceil \frac{n}{2}\rceil $. In this correspondence we prove that…

In this paper, we explicitly construct a large class of symmetric Boolean functions on $2k$ variables with algebraic immunity not less than $d$, where integer $k$ is given arbitrarily and $d$ is a given suffix of $k$ in binary…

We describe several families of efficiently implementable Boolean functions achieving provable trade-offs between resiliency, nonlinearity, and algebraic immunity. In particular, the following statement holds for each of the function…

Algebraic immunity of Boolean function $f$ is defined as the minimal degree of a nonzero $g$ such that $fg=0$ or $(f+1)g=0$. Given a positive even integer $n$, it is found that the weight distribution of any $n$-variable symmetric Boolean…

We describe a new class of Boolean functions which provide the presently best known trade-off between low computational complexity, nonlinearity and (fast) algebraic immunity. In particular, for $n\leq 20$, we show that there are functions…

Constructing $2m$-variable Boolean functions with optimal algebraic immunity based on decomposition of additive group of the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{2^{2m}}$ seems to be a promising approach since Tu and Deng's work. In this paper, we…

From the motivation of algebraic attacks to stream and block ciphers([1,2,7,13,14,15]), the concept of {\em algebraic immunity} (AI) was introduced in [21] and studied in [3,5,10,11,17,18,19,20,21]. High algebraic immunity is a necessary…

We propose a general approach to construct cryptographic significant Boolean functions of $(r+1)m$ variables based on the additive decomposition $\mathbb{F}_{2^{rm}}\times\mathbb{F}_{2^m}$ of the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{2^{(r+1)m}}$,…

In this paper, a technique on constructing nonlinear resilient Boolean functions is described. By using several sets of disjoint spectra functions on a small number of variables, an almost optimal resilient function on a large even number…

Boolean functions with high algebraic immunity are important cryptographic primitives in some stream ciphers. In this paper, two methodologies for constructing binary minimal codes from sets, Boolean functions and vectorial Boolean…

Nowadays, the resistance against algebraic attacks and fast algebraic attacks are considered as an important cryptographic property for Boolean functions used in stream ciphers. Both attacks are very powerful analysis concepts and can be…

In this correspondence, an equivalent definition of algebraic immunity of Boolean functions is posed, which can clear up the confusion caused by the proof of optimal algebraic immunity of the Carlet-Feng function and some other functions…

The number of $n$-ary balanced correlation immune (resilient) Boolean functions of order $\frac{n}{2}$ is not less than $n^{2^{(n/2)-2}(1+o(1))}$ as $n\rightarrow\infty$. Keywords: resilient function, correlation immune function, orthogonal…

Algebraic and fast algebraic attacks are power tools to analyze stream ciphers. A class of symmetric Boolean functions with maximum algebraic immunity were found vulnerable to fast algebraic attacks at EUROCRYPT'06. Recently, the notion of…

In this note, we go further on the "basis exchange" idea presented in \cite{LiNa1} by using Mobious inversion. We show that the matrix $S_1(f)S_0(f)^{-1}$ has a nice form when $f$ is chosen to be the majority function, where $S_1(f)$ is the…

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…

It is known that the order of correlation immunity of a nonconstant unbalanced Boolean function in $n$ variables cannot exceed $2n/3-1$; moreover, it is $2n/3-1$ if and only if the function corresponds to an equitable $2$-partition of the…

A boolean function of $n$ boolean variables is {correlation-immune} of order $k$ if the function value is uncorrelated with the values of any $k$ of the arguments. Such functions are of considerable interest due to their cryptographic…

A $\{00,01,10,11\}$-valued function on the vertices of the $n$-cube is called a $t$-resilient $(n,2)$-function if it has the same number of $00$s, $01$s, $10$s and $11$s among the vertices of every subcube of dimension $t$. The Friedman and…

It is shown that the counting function of n Boolean variables can be implemented with the formulae of size O(n^3.06) over the basis of all 2-input Boolean functions and of size O(n^4.54) over the standard basis. The same bounds follow for…
