On Ideal Autocorrelation Sequences Arising from Hyperovals

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Discrete Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science ((DISCMATH))

Abstract

Recently, Maschietti showed how one can derive cyclic difference sets from monomial hyperovals. The incidence functions of these difference sets give rise to binary sequences with ideal autocorrelation function. An overview of this result is provided as well as a derivation of the trace expansion and linear span of sequences relating to the Segre hyperoval.
