摘要

Tu and Deng proposed a class of bent functions which are of optimal algebraic immunity under the assumption of a combinatorial conjecture. In this paper, the authors compute the dual of the Tu-Deng functions and then show that they are still of optimal algebraic immunity under the assumption of the same conjecture. For another class of Boolean functions constructed by Tang, et al. which are of optimal algebraic immunity with similar forms to Tu-Deng functions, the authors show that they are not bent functions by using some basic properties of binary complete Kloosterman sums.
