Spectral Orbits and Peak-to-Average Power Ratio of Boolean Functions with respect to the {I,H,N}^n Transform
We enumerate the inequivalent self-dual additive codes over GF(4) of
blocklength n, thereby extending the sequence A090899 in The On-Line
Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences from n = 9 to n = 12. These codes have a
well-known interpretation as quantum codes. They can also be represented by
graphs, where a simple graph operation generates the orbits of equivalent
codes. We highlight the regularity and structure of some graphs that correspond
to codes with high distance. The codes can also be interpreted as quadratic
Boolean functions, where inequivalence takes on a spectral meaning. In this
context we define PAR_IHN, peak-to-average power ratio with respect to the
{I,H,N}^n transform set. We prove that PAR_IHN of a Boolean function is
equivalent to the the size of the maximum independent set over the associated
orbit of graphs. Finally we propose a construction technique to generate
Boolean functions with low PAR_IHN and algebraic degree higher than 2.Comment: Presented at Sequences and Their Applications, SETA'04, Seoul, South
