Dimensional Dual Hyperovals and APN Functions with Translation Groups
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we develop a theory of translation groups for dimensional dual hyperovals and APN functions. It will be seen that both theories can be treated, to a large degree, simultaneously. For small ambient spaces it will be shown that the translation groups are normal in the automorphism group of the respective geometric object. For large ambient spaces there may be more than one translation group. We will determine the structure of the normal closure of the translation groups in the automorphism group and we will exhibit examples which in fact do admit more than one translation group.

Isomorphisms and Automorphisms of Extensions of Bilinear Dimensional Dual Hyperovals and Quadratic APN Functions
In [5] an extension construction of (n+1)-dimensional dual hyperovals using n-dimensional bilinear dual hyperovals was introduced. Related to this construction, is a construction of APN functions in dimension n+ 1 using two APN functions in dimension n. In this paper we show that the isomorphism problem for the (n + 1)-dimensional extensions can be reduced to the isomorphism problem of the init...

We show that dimensional doubly dual hyperovals over F2 define bent functions. We also discuss some known and a few new examples of dimensional doubly dual hyperovals and study the associated bent functions.

In [5] we showed, that a doubly transitive, non-solvable dimensional dual hyperoval D is either isomorphic to the Mathieu dual hyperoval or to a quotient of a Huybrechts dual hyperoval. In order to determine the doubly transitive dimensional dual hyperovals, it remains to classify the doubly transitive, solvable dimensional dual hyperovals and this paper is a contribution to this problem. A dou...
متن کاملDimensional dual hyperovals associated with Steiner systems
In Adv. Geom. 3 (2003) 245, a class of d-dimensional dual hyperovals is constructed starting from a subset X of PG(d, 2) with certain properties. In this paper, a criterion for X to provide a d-dimensional dual hyperoval is given in terms of some functions. Based on this, we describe such subsets, and show that there are exactly two isomorphism classes of d-dimensional dual hyperovals arising f...
متن کاملOn some d-dimensional dual hyperovals in PG(2d, 2)
In [H. Taniguchi, On d-dimensional dual hyperovals in PG(2d,2), Innov. Incidence Geom., in press], we construct d-dimensional dual hyperovals in PG(2d,2) from quasifields of characteristic 2. In this note, we show that, if d-dimensional dual hyperovals in PG(2d,2) constructed from nearfields are isomorphic, then those nearfields are isomorphic. Some results on dual hyperovals constructed from q...
