CCZ-equivalence of bent vectorial functions and related constructions

We observe that the CCZ-equivalence of bent vectorial functions over F-2(n) (n even) reduces to their EA-equivalence. Then we show that in spite of this fact, CCZ-equivalence can be used for constructing bent functions which are new up to EA-equivalence and therefore to CCZ-equivalence: applying CCZ-equivalence to a non-bent vectorial function F which has some bent components, we get a function F' which also has some bent components and whose bent components are CCZ-inequivalent to the components of the original function F. Using this approach we construct classes of nonquadratic bent Boolean and bent vectorial functions.
