Abstract

Let 𝔽 p be a finite field with p elements, where p is a prime. Let N ≥ 2 be an integer and f the least positive integer satisfying p f ≡ −1 (mod N). Then we let q = p 2f and r = q m . In this paper, we study the Walsh transform of the monomial function
\(f(x)=\text {Tr}_{r/p}(ax^{\frac {r-1} N})\)
for \(a \in \Bbb F_{r}^{*}\). We shall present the value distribution of the Walsh transform of f(x) and show that it takes at most \(\min \{p, N\}+1\) distinct values. In particular, we can obtain binary functions with three-valued Walsh transform and ternary functions with three-valued or four-valued Walsh transform. Furthermore, we present two classes of four-weight binary cyclic codes and six-weight ternary cyclic codes.
