Cross-Correlation Analysis of Cryptographically Useful Boolean.. - Sarkar (2001)   (Correct)

....when f = g and gives us the following Corollary 3.1 Let f be an n variable function. Then [C f (0) C f (2 n 1) H n = W 2 f (0) W 2 f (2 n 1) This result is called the Wiener Khintchine Theorem in continuous analysis and has also been obtained for Boolean functions [2, 17, 10]. Applying the inverse transform to the cross correlation vector gives the following Corollary 3.2 Let f; g be n variable functions. Then 2 n [C f;g (0) C f;g (2 n 1) W f (0)W g (0) W f (2 n 1)W g (2 n 1) H n : 3) Applying the inverse transform with g = f , gives ....

It generalises the bounds on sum of squares of the auto correlation coecients obtained in Theorem 2 of [17]. Theorem 3.2 Let f; g be n variable functions and E be a subspace of F n 2 .

Further work on the topic can be found in [15]. To simplify our discussions, a notation indicated by is introduced: Notation 1 Let f be a function on Vn . The set of vectors in Vn with respect to which f does not satisfy the propagation criterion is denoted by . Given two sequences a = a 1 ; am ) and b = b 1 ; b m ) ....

....by Webster and Tavares [15, 16] is equivalent to the propagation criterion of degree 1 and that the perfect nonlinearity studied by Meier and Staffelbach [6] is equivalent to the propagation criterion of degree n where n is the number of the coordinates of the function. In a relevant development [18], the authors have recently identified various limitations of the SAC and the propagation criterion. In particular, we have found that the two criteria are primarily focused on local avalanche characteristics of cryptographic functions, which would limit their usability in certain cryptographic ....
