Abstract

Perfect nonlinear functions are of importance in cryptography. By using Galois rings and investigating the character values of corresponding relative difference sets, we construct a perfect nonlinear function from ℤnp2 to Zℤmp2where 2m is possibly larger than the largest divisor of n. Meanwhile we prove that there exists a perfect nonlinear function from Z22p to Z2p if and only if p = 2, and that there doesn't exist a perfect nonlinear function from Z2n2klto Zm2k if m > n and l(l is odd) is self-conjugate modulo 2k(k ≥ 1).
