This book covers novel research on construction and analysis of
optimal cryptographic functions such as almost perfect nonlinear
(APN), almost bent (AB), planar and bent functions. These functions
have optimal resistance to linear and/or differential attacks,
which are the two most powerful attacks on symmetric cryptosystems.
Besides cryptographic applications, these functions are significant
in many branches of mathematics and information theory including
coding theory, combinatorics, commutative algebra, finite geometry,
sequence design and quantum information theory. The author analyzes
equivalence relations for these functions and develops several new
methods for construction of their infinite families. In addition,
the book offers solutions to two longstanding open problems,
including the problem on characterization of APN and AB functions
via Boolean, and the problem on the relation between two classes of
bent functions.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop
proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on the Arithmetic of
Finite Field, WAIFI 2018, held in Bergen, Norway, in June 2018. The
14 revised full papers and six invited talks presented were
carefully reviewed and selected from 26 submissions. The papers are
organized in topical sections on invited talks; elliptic curves;
hardware implementations; arithmetic and applications of finite
fields and cryptography.
Vectorial Boolean functions are used in cryptography, in particular
in block ciphers. An important condition on these functions is a
high resistance to differential and linear cryptanalysis, which are
the main attacks on block ciphers. The functions which possess the
best resistance to the differential attack are called almost
perfect nonlinear (APN). Almost bent (AB) functions are those
mappings which oppose an optimum resistance to both linear and
differential attacks. Before this work, only a few classes of APN
and AB functions had been known and all these classes happened to
be extended affine equivalent (EA- equivalent) to power functions.
In this work we construct the first classes of APN and AB
polynomials EA-inequivalent to power mappings by using the
equivalence relation of functions (which we call CCZ-equivalence)
introduced by Carlet, Charpin and Zinoviev (1998). Then the
constructed APN and AB functions are used to solve other related
problems.
