摘要
Algebraic immunity has been considered as one of cryptographically significant properties for Boolean functions. In this paper, we study Sigma(d-1)(i=0) ((n)(i))-weight Boolean functions with algebraic immunity achieving 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 not equal n+1/2 their nonlinearities equal the minimum of Sigma(d-1)(i=0) ((n)(i)) and Sigma(n-d)(i=0) ((n)(i)). Lastly, we identify two classes of such functions, one having algebraic degree of n or n - 1.
