Abstract

The Walsh transform is an important tool to investigate cryptographic properties of Boolean functions. This paper is devoted to study the Walsh transform of a class of Boolean functions defined as [see formula in PDF], by making use of the known conclusions of Walsh transform and the properties of trace function, and the conclusion is obtained by generalizing an existing result.

Highlights

  • F2, we identify F2n with F2n and every function f : F2n F2 is equivalent to a Boolean function

  • Let f be a Boolean function from F2n to F2, and the set of which is denoted by Bn

  • Let n be a positive integer and f be a Boolean function from F2n to F2
