Cyclic Codes and Sequences From Generalized Coulter–Matthews Function |
| |
Abstract: | In this paper, we will study the exponential sum $sum_{xin {BBF}_q}chi(alpha x^{(p^k+1)/2}+beta x)$ that is related to the generalized Coulter–Matthews function $x^{(p^k+1)/2}$ with $k/{rm gcd}(m,k)$ odd. As applications, we obtain the following: the correlation distribution of a $p$-ary $m$-sequence and a decimated $m$-sequence of degree ${p^k+1 over 2}$; |
