On the duals of certain \(d\)-dimensional dual hyperovals in \(\mathrm{PG}(2d+1,2)\) (Q1046466): Difference between revisions

Let \(d\geq 2\). A construction of \(d\)-dimensional dual hyperovals in \(\mathrm{PG}(2d+1,2)\) using quadratic APN functions was discovered by Yoshiara. The paper is organized as follows. Section 1 is the introduction. Section 2 deals with quadratic APN functions. In section 3, the author studies the duals of \(d\)-dimensional dual hyperovals in \(\mathrm{PG}(2d+1,2)\) constructed from quadratic APN functions. Section 4 contains examples. The author proves that the duals of the d - dimensional dual hyperovals in \(\mathrm{PG}(2d+1,2)\) constructed from quadratic APN functions are also \(d\)-dimensional dual hyperovals in \(\mathrm{PG}(2d+1,2)\) if, and only if, \(d\) is even.
