Investigations on $c$-(almost) perfect nonlinear functions

In a prior paper \cite{EFRST20}, two of us, along with P. Ellingsen, P. Felke and A. Tkachenko, 1defined a new (output) multiplicative differential, and the corresponding $c$-differential uniformity, which has the potential of extending differential cryptanalysis. Here, we continue the work, by looking at some APN functions through the mentioned concept and showing that their $c$-differential uniformity increases significantly, in some cases.

On $-1$-differential uniformity of ternary APN power functions

Very recently, a new concept called multiplicative differential and the corresponding $c$-differential uniformity were introduced by Ellingsen et al. A function $F(x)$ over finite field $\mathrm{GF}(p^n)$ to itself is called $c$-differential uniformity $δ$, or equivalent, $F(x)$ is differentially $(c,δ)$ uniform, when the maximum number of solutions $x\in\mathrm{GF}(p^n)$ of $F(x+a)-F(cx)=b$, $a,b,c\in\mathrm{GF}(p^n)$, $c\neq1$ if $a=0$, is equal to $δ$. The objective of this paper is to study the $-1$-differential uniformity of ternary APN power functions $F(x)=x^d$ over $\mathrm{GF}(3^n)$. We obtain ternary power functions with low $-1$-differential uniformity, and some of them are almost perfect $-1$-nonlinear.

Power Functions over Finite Fields with Low $c$-Differential Uniformity

Very recently, a new concept called multiplicative differential (and the corresponding $c$-differential uniformity) was introduced by Ellingsen \textit{et al} in [C-differentials, multiplicative uniformity and (almost) perfect c-nonlinearity, IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory, 2020] which is motivated from practical differential cryptanalysis. Unlike classical perfect nonlinear functions, there are perfect $c$-nonlinear functions even for characteristic two. The objective of this paper is to study power function $F(x)=x^d$ over finite fields with low $c$-differential uniformity. Some power functions are shown to be perfect $c$-nonlinear or almost perfect $c$-nonlinear. Notably, we completely determine the $c$-differential uniformity of almost perfect nonlinear functions with the well-known Gold exponent. We also give an affirmative solution to a recent conjecture proposed by Bartoli and Timpanella in 2019 related to an exceptional quasi-planar power function.

On an open problem about a class of optimal ternary cyclic codes

Cyclic codes are a subclass of linear codes and have applications in consumer electronics, data storage systems and communication systems as they have efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. In this paper, we settle an open problem about a class of optimal ternary cyclic codes which was proposed by Ding and Helleseth. Let $C_{(1,e)}$ be a cyclic code of length $3^m-1$ over GF(3) with two nonzeros $α$ and $α^e$, where $α$ is a generator of $GF(3^m)^*$ and e is a given integer. It is shown that $C_{(1,e)}$ is optimal with parameters $[3^m-1,3^m-1-2m,4]$ if one of the following conditions is met. 1) $m\equiv0(\mathrm{mod}~ 4)$, $m\geq 4$, and $e=3^\frac{m}{2}+5$. 2) $m\equiv2(\mathrm{mod}~ 4)$, $m\geq 6$, and $e=3^\frac{m+2}{2}+5$.

Linearized Reed-Solomon codes and linearized Wenger graphs

A codeword is associated to a linearized polynomial. The weight distribution of the codewords is determined as the linearized polynomial varies in a family of fixed degree. There is a corresponding result on Wenger graphs from linearized polynomials.

Incidence Matrices of Polarized Projective Spaces

In this paper, we first define a non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form on Fq^4. Then we get an incidence matrix G of Fq^4 by the bilinear form. By its corresponding quadratic form Q, the lines of Fq^4 are classified as isotropic and anisotropic lines. Under this classification, we can get two sub-matrices of G and prove their 2-rank. Key words and phrases: finite field, quadratic form, incidence matrix.
