Abstract

In this paper, we construct a class of vectorial Boolean functions over $\mathbb{F}_{2^{n}}$ with high algebraic immunity based on the decomposition of the multiplicative group of $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$. By viewing $\mathbb{F}_{2^{n}}$ as $G_1G_2\bigcup \{0\} $ (where $G_1$ and $G_2$ are subgroups of $\mathbb{F}_{2^{n}}^{*},~(\#G_1,\#G_2)=1$ and $\#G_1\times \#G_2=2^{2k}-1$), we give a generalized description for constructing vectorial Boolean functions with high algebraic immunity. Moreover, when $n$ is even, we provide two special classes of vectorial Boolean functions with high(sometimes optimal) algebraic immunity, one is hyper-bent, and the other is of balancedness and optimal algebraic degree .
