Abstract

Let n be a positive integer and F(x) = xd over F5n, where d=5n-32. In this paper, we study the differential properties of the power permutation F(x). It is shown that F(x) is differentially 4-uniform when n is even, and differentially 5-uniform when n is odd. Based on some knowledge on elliptic curves over finite fields, the differential spectrum of F(x) is also determined.
