Constructions of (vectorial) bent functions outside the completed Maiorana–McFarland class

Two new classes of bent functions derived from the Maiorana–McFarland (mathcalM) class, so-called mathcalC and mathcalD, were introduced by Carlet (1993) almost three decades ago. In Zhang (2020) sufficient conditions for specifying …

Vectorial bent functions weakly/strongly outside the completed Maiorana–McFarland class

Two new classes of bent functions derived from the Maiorana–McFarland (mathcalM) class, so-called mathcalC and mathcalD, were introduced by Carlet (1994) two decades ago. The difficulty of satisfying their defining conditions was …
