The construction is based on the concatenation of two balanced functions in associative classes. For some n, a part of 1-resilient functions with maximum algebraic immunity constructed in the paper can achieve almost optimal nonlinearity. Apart from their high nonlinearity, the functions reach Siegenthaler＇s upper bound of algebraic degree. Also a class of l-resilient functions on any number n 〉 2 of variables with at least sub-optimal algebraic immunity is provided.展开更多

In this paper, we study ∑d-1 i=0 (ni)-weight Boolean functions with algebraic immunity achiev-ing the minimum of d and n - d + 1, which is highest for the functions. We present a simpler sufficient and necessary condition for these functions to achieve highest algebraic immunity. In addition, we prove that their algebraic degrees are not less than the maximum of d and n - d + 1, and for d = n1 +2 their nonlinearities equalthe minimum of ∑d-1 i=0 (ni) and ∑ d-1 i=0 (ni). Lastly, we identify two classes of such functions, one having algebraic degree of n or n-1.展开更多

In order to resist algebraic attacks, Boolean functions used in many stream ciphers should possess high algebraic immunity. This paper presents one main result to find balanced rotation symmetric Boolean functions with maximum algebraic immunity. Through swapping the values of two orbits of rotation class of the majority function, a class of 4k＋l variable Boolean functions with maximum algebraic immu- nity is constructed. The function f（x） we construct always has terms of degree n-2 independence of what ever n is. And the nonlinearity off（x） is relatively good for large n.展开更多

Then an infinite class of balanced Boolean functions are proposed by modifying the above Boolean functions. This class of balanced Boolean functions have optimal algebraic degree and high nonlinearity. Both classes have optimal algebraic immunity based on a general combinatorial conjecture.展开更多
