Boolean functions are essential to systems for secure and reliable communication. This
comprehensive survey of Boolean functions for cryptography and coding covers the whole …

In this survey, we revisit the Rothaus paper and the chapter of Dillon's thesis dedicated to
bent functions, and we describe the main results obtained on these functions during these …

Bent Functions: Results and Applications to Cryptography offers a unique survey of the
objects of discrete mathematics known as Boolean bent functions. As these maximal …

Linear codes with a few weights have applications in consumer electronics, communication,
data storage system, secret sharing, authentication codes, association schemes, and …

The self-orthogonality and divisibility are two important properties of linear codes. It is
interesting to establish relationship between them. By the well-known Gleason-Pierce-Ward …

Bent functions are optimal combinatorial objects. Since their introduction, substantial efforts
have been directed toward their study in the last three decades. A complete classification of …

Self-orthogonal codes are linear codes such that they are contained in their duals. Self-
orthogonal codes have attracted much attention due to their applications in linear …

The Niho exponent was introduced by Yoji Niho, who investigated the cross-correlation
function between an m-sequence and its decimation sequence in 1972. Since then, Niho …

As a class of optimal combinatorial objects, bent functions have important applications in
cryptography, sequence design, and coding theory. Bent idempotents are a subclass of bent …

Linear codes with few weights constructed from defining sets have been extensively studied
due to their applications in data storage systems, secret sharing schemes and authentication …
