Abstract
Boolean functions with a few Walsh spectral values have important applications in sequence ciphers and coding theory. In this paper, we first construct a class of Boolean functions with at most five-valued Walsh spectra by using the secondary construction of Boolean functions, in particular, plateaued functions are included. Then, we construct three classes of Boolean functions with five-valued Walsh spectra using Kasami functions and investigate the Walsh spectrum distributions of the new functions. Finally, three classes of minimal linear codes with five-weights are obtained, which can be used to design secret sharing scheme with good access structures.
