We present a method to iteratively construct new bent functions of n+2 variables from a bent function of n variables and its cyclic shift permutations using minterms of n variables and minterms of 2 variables. In addition, we provide the number of bent functions of n+2 variables that we can obtain by applying the method here presented, and finally we compare this method with a previous one introduced by us in 2008 and with the Rothaus and Maiorana-McFarland constructions.

An S-box is the most important part of a symmetric encryption algorithm. Various schemes are put forward by using chaos theory. In this paper, a construction method of S-boxes with good cryptographic properties is proposed. The output of an S-box can be regarded as a group of Boolean functions. Therefore, we can use the different properties of chaos and Bent functions to generate a random Bent function with a high nonlinearity. By constructing a set of Bent functions as the output of an S-box, we can create an S-box with good cryptological properties. The nonlinearity, differential uniformity, strict avalanche criterion and the independence criterion of output bits are then analyzed and tested. A security analysis shows that the proposed S-box has excellent cryptographic properties.

Bent function is a class of the highest nonlinear Boolean functions. In this paper three methods of design and construction are discussed with examples, which are algebra method, the character function in projective geometry and random researching method. Also, the Bent function of class is implemented with C language. At last, the concatenate construction from m = 2n-k Bent functions of k variables to a Bent function of n variables is given and verified with Walsh spectra.
