Bent functions f : Fm 2 → F2 achieve largest distance to all linear functions. Equivalently, their spectrum with respect to the Hadamard-Walsh transform is flat (i.e. all spectr...
The question if there exist nonnormal bent functions was an open question for several years. A Boolean function in n variables is called normal if there exists an affine subspace ...

A set of Boolean functions is called a bent set if the sum of any two distinct members is a bent function. We show that any bent set yields a homogeneous system of linked symmetric...
By the relationship between the Walsh spectra at partial points and the Walsh spectra of its sub-functions, by the action of general linear group on the set of Boolean functions, ...

We study the Boolean functions f :F2n F2, n = 6r, of the form f (x) = Tr(xd) with d = 22r + 2r + 1 and F2n . Our main result is the characterization of those for which f are b...
