Abstract

Considered are quadratic p-ary bent functions having the form f(x) = Trn(axpj+1). Described is the general Gold-like class of bent functions that covers all the previously known monomial quadratic cases. Obtained is the exact value of the Walsh transform coefficients for a bent function in this class. In particular, presented is an explicit expressions for a dual of a monomial quadratic bent function which is a bent functions on its own. This gives new examples of generalized bent functions not previously reported in the literature. The paper is the follow-up to Helleseth-Kholosha 2006.
