• abstract = "Rotation symmetric Boolean functions represent an interesting class of Boolean functions as they are relatively rare compared to general Boolean functions. At the same time, the functions in this class can have excellent cryptographic properties, making them interesting for various practical applications. The usage of metaheuristics to construct rotation symmetric Boolean functions is a direction that has been explored for almost twenty years. Despite that, there are very few results considering evolutionary computation methods. This paper uses several evolutionary algorithms to evolve rotation symmetric Boolean functions with different properties. Despite using generic metaheuristics, we obtain results that are competitive with prior work relying on customized heuristics. Surprisingly, we find that bitstring and floating point encodings work better than the tree encoding. Moreover, evolving highly nonlinear general Boolean functions is easier than rotation symmetric ones.",
