摘要
The set of linear structures of most known balanced Boolean functions is non-trivial. In this paper, some balanced Boolean functions whose set of linear structures is trivial are constructed. We show that any APN function in even dimension must have a component whose set of linear structures is trivial. We determine a general form for the number of bent components in quadratic APN functions in even dimension and some bounds on the number are produced. We also count bent components in any quadratic power functions.
