摘要

A recent conjecture by C. Carlet on the sum-freedom of the binary multiplicative inverse function can be stated as follows: for each pair of positive integers (nk) with \(3\le k\le n-3\) 3 k n - 3 , there is a k-dimensional \(\mathbb F_2\) F 2 -subspace E of \(\mathbb F_{2^n}\) F 2 n such that \(\sum _{0\ne u\in E}1/u=0\) 0 u E 1 / u = 0 . We confirm this conjecture when n is not a prime.
