In this paper, we analyse the algebraic immunity of symmetric Boolean functions. We identify a set of lowest degree annihilators for symmetric functions and propose an efficient al...
The need for lightweight (that is, compact, low-power, low-energy) cryptographic hash functions has been repeatedly expressed by application designers, notably for implementing RFI...
The nonlinearity profile of a Boolean function (i.e. the sequence of its minimum Hamming distances nlr(f) to all functions of degrees at most r, for r 1) is a cryptographic crite...
