Abstract:
A new class of almost perfect nonlinear (APN) polynomial functions has been recently introduced. We give some generalizations of these functions and deduce new families of perfect nonlinear (PN) functions. We show that these PN functions are CCZ-inequivalent to the known perfect nonlinear functions.
