Some observations on bent and planar functions
Year: 2025
Type: preprint
Abstract: We show that the graph of a bent function is a Salem set in an appropriate sense. We also establish a simple result that quantifies redundancies in the difference operators of a function, which applies to bent functions over fields of odd characteristic via their equivalence to perfect non-linear functions in that setting. We end by demonstrating, by entirely elementary means, that the distance between two distinct planar functions must be at least two.
