A NOTE ON SEMI-BENT BOOLEAN FUNCTIONS

Claude Carlet and Sihem Mesnager

Abstract: We show how to construct semi-bent Boolean functions from PSap- like bent functions. We derive innite classes of semi-bent functions in even dimension having multiple trace terms.

Category / Keywords: Boolean function, Bent functions, Maximum nonlinearity, Semi- bent function, Walsh-Hadamard transformation, Partial Spread class.
