Investigations on $c$-Boomerang Uniformity and Perfect Nonlinearity

We defined in~\cite{EFRST20} a new multiplicative $c$-differential, and the corresponding $c$-differential uniformity and we characterized the known perfect nonlinear functions with respect to this new concept, as well as the inverse in any characteristic. The work was continued in~\cite{RS20}, investigating the $c$-differential uniformity for some further APN functions. Here, we extend the concept to the boomerang uniformity, introduced at Eurocrypt '18 by Cid et al.~\cite{Cid18}, to evaluate S-boxes of block ciphers, and investigate it in the context of perfect nonlinearity and related functions.
