“This book is a very significant contribution to the theory of bent
functions and will be useful to advanced students and researchers
interested in cryptographic Boolean functions.” (Sugata
Gangopadhyay, Mathematical Reviews, October, 2017)
“This book is a comprehensive and very detailed collection of
results on bent functions obtained in the decades after their
introduction. … The book is addressed to researchers in discrete
mathematics and their applications in cryptography or coding
theory. It can serve as a comprehensive reference book on topics on
(Boolean) bent functions. Furthermore it is interesting for
theoretical computer scientists or engineers.” (Wilfried Meidl,
zbMATH 1364.94008, 2017)
