Abstract: | We present a method for constructing new quadratic APN functions from known ones. Applying this method to the Gold power functions we construct an APN function $x^3+\tr(x^9)$ over $\F_{2^n}$. It is proven that in general this function is CCZ-inequivalent to the Gold functions (and therefore EA-inequivalent to power functions), to the inverse and Dobbertin mappings, and in the case $n=7$ it is CCZ-inequivalent to all power mappings. |
