    Modifying the inverse function over the field \(\mathbb{F}_{2^n}\) in two points produces a 4-differential uniform permutation function. For this modified version of the inverse function its boomerang uniformity has been determined in [\textit{K. Li} et al., IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory 65, No. 11, 7542--7553 (2019; Zbl 1433.94088)]. In this paper, the author characterizes the c-differential and c-boomerang uniformity for the (0,1)-swapped inverse function in even characteristic In particular, for \(c\ne 1\) we have that the c-differential uniformity is upper bounded by 4 and the c-boomerang uniformity by 5. Both bounds can be attained for \(n\ge 4\).
