A mathematical analysis is necessary to ensure the security of the cipher. In this thesis, I develop several new contributions for the analysis of block ciphers. I determine cryptographic properties of several special cryptographically interesting mappings like almost perfect nonlinear functions. I also give some new results both on the resistance of functions against differential-linear attacks as well as on the efficiency of implementation of certain block ciphers.", school="Universit{\"a}t Rostock", note="vorgelegt von Lukas K{\"o}lsch", note="GutachterInnen: Gohar Kyureghyan (Universit{\"a}t Rostock) ; Petr Lisonek (Simon Fraser University Vancouver) ; Ferruh {\"O}zbudak (Middle East Technical University Ankara)", note="Dissertation Universit{\"a}t Rostock 2020", doi="10.18453/rosdok_id00002900", url="http://purl.uni-rostock.de/rosdok/id00002900", url="https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-rosdok_id00002900-8", url="https://d-nb.info/1293662305/34", url="https://doi.org/10.18453/rosdok_id00002900", language="English" }
