Abstract

Here, we give a complete description of the entire c-Boomerang Connectivity Table for the Gold function over finite fields of even characteristic, by using double Weil sums. As a by-product, we generalize a result of Boura and Canteaut (IACR Trans. Symmetric Cryptol. 2018(3) : 290–310, 2018) for the classical boomerang uniformity (see also the extended abstract by Eddahmani and Mesnager at the Boolean Functions and their Applications (BFA 2021) conference).
