Determination of a Class of Permutation Trinomials in Characteristic Three

Let $f(X)=X(1+aX^{q(q-1)}+bX^{2(q-1)})\in\Bbb F_{q^2}[X]$, where $a,b\in\Bbb F_{q^2}^*$. In a series of recent papers by several authors, sufficient conditions on $a$ and $b$ were found for $f$ to be a permutation polynomial (PP) of $\Bbb F_{q^2}$ and, in characteristic $2$, the sufficient conditions were shown to be necessary. In the present paper, we confirm that in characteristic 3, the sufficient conditions are also necessary. More precisely, we show that when $\text{char}\,\Bbb F_q=3$, $f$ is a PP of $\Bbb F_{q^2}$ if and only if $(ab)^q=a(b^{q+1}-a^{q+1})$ and $1-(b/a)^{q+1}$ is a square in $\Bbb F_q^*$.

Constructions of involutions over finite fields

An involution over finite fields is a permutation polynomial whose inverse is itself. Owing to this property, involutions over finite fields have been widely used in applications such as cryptography and coding theory. As far as we know, there are not many involutions, and there isn't a general way to construct involutions over finite fields. This paper gives a necessary and sufficient condition for the polynomials of the form $x^rh(x^s)\in \bF_q[x]$ to be involutions over the finite field~$\bF_q$, where $r\geq 1$ and $s\,|\, (q-1)$. By using this criterion we propose a general method to construct involutions of the form $x^rh(x^s)$ over $\bF_q$ from given involutions over the corresponding subgroup of $\bF_q^*$. Then, many classes of explicit involutions of the form $x^rh(x^s)$ over $\bF_q$ are obtained.

Corrigendum to New Generalized Cyclotomic Binary Sequences of Period $p^2$

New generalized cyclotomic binary sequences of period $p^2$ are proposed in this paper, where $p$ is an odd prime. The sequences are almost balanced and their linear complexity is determined. The result shows that the proposed sequences have very large linear complexity if $p$ is a non-Wieferich prime.

On the Correlation Distribution for a Ternary Niho Decimation

In this paper, let $n=2m$ and $d=3^{m+1}-2$ with $m\geq2$ and $\gcd(d,3^n-1)=1$. By studying the weight distribution of the ternary Zetterberg code and counting the numbers of solutions of some equations over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{3^n}$, the correlation distribution between a ternary $m$-sequence of period $3^n-1$ and its $d$-decimation sequence is completely determined. This is the first time that the correlation distribution for a non-binary Niho decimation has been determined since 1976.

A Class of Binomial Permutation Polynomials

In this note, a criterion for a class of binomials to be permutation polynomials is proposed. As a consequence, many classes of binomial permutation polynomials and monomial complete permutation polynomials are obtained. The exponents in these monomials are of Niho type.

A Triple-Error-Correcting Cyclic Code from the Gold and Kasami-Welch APN Power Functions

Based on a sufficient condition proposed by Hollmann and Xiang for constructing triple-error-correcting codes, the minimum distance of a binary cyclic code $\mathcal{C}_{1,3,13}$ with three zeros $α$, $α^3$, and $α^{13}$ of length $2^m-1$ and the weight divisibility of its dual code are studied, where $m\geq 5$ is odd and $α$ is a primitive element of the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{2^m}$. The code $\mathcal{C}_{1,3,13}$ is proven to have the same weight distribution as the binary triple-error-correcting primitive BCH code $\mathcal{C}_{1,3,5}$ of the same length.

Weight Distribution of A p-ary Cyclic Code

For an odd prime $p$ and two positive integers $n\geq 3$ and $k$ with $\frac{n}{{\rm gcd}(n,k)}$ being odd, the paper determines the weight distribution of a $p$-ary cyclic code $\mathcal{C}$ over $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ with nonzeros $α^{-1}$, $α^{-(p^k+1)}$ and $α^{-(p^{3k}+1)}$, where $α$ is a primitive element of $\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$

A Class of Nonbinary Codes and Their Weight Distribution

In this paper, for an even integer $n\geq 4$ and any positive integer $k$ with ${\rm gcd}(n/2,k)={\rm gcd}(n/2-k,2k)=d$ being odd, a class of $p$-ary codes $\mathcal{C}^k$ is defined and their weight distribution is completely determined, where $p$ is an odd prime. As an application, a class of nonbinary sequence families is constructed from these codes, and the correlation distribution is also determined.

Period-Different $m$-Sequences With At Most A Four-Valued Cross Correlation

In this paper, we follow the recent work of Helleseth, Kholosha, Johanssen and Ness to study the cross correlation between an $m$-sequence of period $2^m-1$ and the $d$-decimation of an $m$-sequence of shorter period $2^{n}-1$ for an even number $m=2n$. Assuming that $d$ satisfies $d(2^l+1)=2^i({\rm mod} 2^n-1)$ for some $l$ and $i$, we prove the cross correlation takes exactly either three or four values, depending on ${\rm gcd}(l,n)$ is equal to or larger than 1. The distribution of the correlation values is also completely determined. Our result confirms the numerical phenomenon Helleseth et al found. It is conjectured that there are no more other cases of $d$ that give at most a four-valued cross correlation apart from the ones proved here.

Generalized Kasami Sequences: The Large Set

In this paper new binary sequence families $\mathcal{F}^k$ of period $2^n-1$ are constructed for even $n$ and any $k$ with ${\rm gcd}(k,n)=2$ if $n/2$ is odd or ${\rm gcd}(k,n)=1$ if $n/2$ is even. The distribution of their correlation values is completely determined. These families have maximum correlation $2^{n/2+1}+1$ and family size $2^{3n/2}+2^{n/2}$ for odd $n/2$ or $2^{3n/2}+2^{n/2}-1$ for even $n/2$. The construction of the large set of Kasami sequences which is exactly the $\mathcal{F}^{k}$ with $k=n/2+1$ is generalized.

A Family of Binary Sequences with Optimal Correlation Property and Large Linear Span

A family of binary sequences is presented and proved to have optimal correlation property and large linear span. It includes the small set of Kasami sequences, No sequence set and TN sequence set as special cases. An explicit lower bound expression on the linear span of sequences in the family is given. With suitable choices of parameters, it is proved that the family has exponentially larger linear spans than both No sequences and TN sequences. A class of ideal autocorrelation sequences is also constructed and proved to have large linear span.

New Sequence Sets with Zero-Correlation Zone

A method for constructing sets of sequences with zero-correlation zone (ZCZ sequences) and sequence sets with low cross correlation is proposed. The method is to use families of short sequences and complete orthogonal sequence sets to derive families of long sequences with desired correlation properties. It is a unification of works of Matsufuji and Torii \emph{et al.}, and there are more choices of parameters of sets for our method. In particular, ZCZ sequence sets generated by the method can achieve a related ZCZ bound. Furthermore, the proposed method can be utilized to derive new ZCZ sets with both longer ZCZ and larger set size from known ZCZ sets. These sequence sets are applicable in broadband satellite IP networks.
