On a conjecture on APN permutations (2105.03702v1)
Published 8 May 2021 in cs.IT, math.CO, and math.IT
Abstract: The single trivariate representation proposed in [C. Beierle, C. Carlet, G. Leander, L. Perrin, A Further Study of Quadratic APN Permutations in Dimension Nine, arXiv:2104.08008] of the two sporadic quadratic APN permutations in dimension 9 found by Beierle and Leander \cite{Beierle} is further investigated. In particular, using tools from algebraic geometry over finite fields, we prove that such a family does not contain any other APN permutation for larger dimensions.
