Özet

Bent and vectorial bent functions have applications in cryptography and coding and are closely related to objects in combinatorics and finite geometry, like difference sets, relative difference sets, designs and divisible designs. Bent functions with certain additional properties yield partial difference sets of which the Cayley graphs are always strongly regular. In this article we continue research on connections between bent functions and partial difference sets respectively strongly regular graphs. For the first time we investigate relations between vectorial bent functions and partial difference sets. Remarkably, properties of the set of the duals of the components play here an important role. Seeing conventional bent functions as 1-dimensional vectorial bent functions, some earlier results on strongly regular graphs from bent functions follow from our more general results. Finally we describe a recursive construction of infinitely many partial difference sets with a secondary construction of p-ary bent functions.
