The results play a crucial role on the search of permutation symmetric Boolean functions with good cryptographic properties. The proposed method is algebraic in nature. As a by-product, the authors correct and generalize the corresponding results of St^nic~ and Maitra （2008）. Further, the authors give a complete classification of block-symmetric bent functions based on the results of Zhao and Li （2006）, and the result is the only one classification of a certain class of permutation symmetric bent functions after the classification of symmetric bent functions proposed by Savicky （1994）.展开更多
