Provable security against generic attacks on stream ciphers
Recent lightweight hardware-based stream cipher designs keep an external non-volatile internal state that is not part of the cipher’s hardware module. The purpose of these so-called small-state ciphers is to keep the size of the hardware and the power ...

Constructions of pseudorandom binary lattices using cyclotomic classes in finite fields
In 2006, Hubert, Mauduit and Sárközy extended the notion of binary sequences to n-dimensional binary lattices and introduced the measures of pseudorandomness of binary lattices.

Barker sequences of odd length [PDF]
A Barker sequence is a binary sequence for which all nontrivial aperiodic autocorrelations are at most 1 in magnitude. An old conjecture due to Turyn asserts that there is no Barker sequence of length greater than 13.

On the k-error linear complexity of cyclotomic sequences [PDF]
Exact values and bounds on the k-error linear complexity of p-periodic sequences which are constant on the cyclotomic classes are determined. This family of sequences includes sequences of discrete logarithms, Legendre sequences and Hall's sextic residue

Remarks on a cyclotomic sequence [PDF]
We analyse a binary cyclotomic sequence constructed via generalized cyclotomic classes by Bai et al. (IEEE Trans Inforem Theory 51: 1849-1853, 2005).

Linearity in decimation-based generators: an improved cryptanalysis on the shrinking generator
Decimation-based sequence generators are a class of non-linear cryptographic generators designed to be used in hardware implementations. An inherent characteristic of such generators is that their output sequences are interleaved sequences.

Remarks on the k-error linear complexity of p(n)-periodic sequences [PDF]
Recently the first author presented exact formulas for the number of 2ⁿn-periodic binary sequences with given 1-error linear complexity, and an exact formula for the expected 1-error linear complexity and upper and lower bounds for the expected k-error ...

How to determine linear complexity and $k$-error linear complexity in some classes of linear recurring sequences [PDF]
Several fast algorithms for the determination of the linear complexity of $d$-periodic sequences over a finite field $\F_q$, i.e. sequences with characteristic polynomial $f(x) = x^d-1$, have been proposed in the literature. In this contribution fast

Direct sums of balanced functions, perfect nonlinear functions, and orthogonal cocycles [PDF]
Determining if a direct sum of functions inherits nonlinearity properties from its direct summands is a subtle problem. Here, we correct a statement by Nyberg on inheritance of balance and we use a connection between balanced derivatives and orthogonal ...
