Linear self-equivalence of the known families of APN functions: a unified point of view

본문 미리보기

The Kim mapping, which belongs to the only known CCZ-equivalence class in even dimension that contains an APN bijection, and the APN bijections in dimension 9 exhibited by Beierle and Leander, all have a univariate representation corresponding to a cyclotomic mapping (aka Wan-Lidl polynomial), and they are all linearly-equivalent to functions with a highly-structured multivariate representation. In this paper, we show that functions having these properties, which correspond to multivariate pr
