Necessary Conditions for the Existence of Regular p-Ary Bent Functions

초록/요약

We find some necessary conditions for the existence of regular p-ary bent functions (from Z(p)(n) to Z(p)), where p is a prime. In more detail, we show that there is no regular p-ary bent function f in n variables with w(M-f) larger than n/2, and for a given nonnegative integer k, there is no regular p-ary bent function f in n variables with w(M-f) = n/2 - k (n + 3/2 - k, respectively) for an even n = N-p,N- (k) (an odd n >= N-p,N- k, respectively), where N-p,N- k is some positive integer, which is explicitly determined and the w(M-f) of a p-ary function f is some value related to the power of each monomial of f. For the proof of our main results, we use some properties of regular p-ary bent functions, such as the MacWilliams duality, which is proved to hold for regular p-ary bent functions in this paper.
