On constructions and properties of $(n,m)$-functions with maximal number of bent components

Lijing Zheng, Jie Peng, Haibin Kan +2

For any positive integers $n=2k$ and $m$ such that $m\ge k$, in this paper we show the maximal number of bent components of any $(n,m)$-functions is equal to $2^m-2^{m-k}$, and…
