Abstract

It is an interesting and challenging topic in cryptography to construct Boolean (or vector Boolean) functions with various of good cryptographic properties. In this paper, by analyzing of a class of linearized equations, we prove that the differential uniformity of the functions constructed by exchanging two values of the Gold functions is 4, and the derived functions also have high algebraic degree and high nonlinearity.
