Autocorrelations of vectorial Boolean functions

Abstract

Recently, Bar-On et al. introduced at Eurocrypt’19 a new tool, called the differential-linear connectivity table (DLCT), which allows for taking into account the dependency between the two subciphers E_0 and E_1 involved in differential-linear attacks. This paper presents a theoretical characterization of the DLCT, which corresponds to an autocorrelation table (ACT) of a vectorial Boolean function. We further provide some new theoretical results on ACTs of vectorial Boolean functions.
