Abstract:The upper and lower bounds for the number () n k of significant variables of balanced Boolean function represented by k elementary conjunction are obtained. The boundedness of () n k for every k was proved by the author previously. Balanced Boolean functions are very important for cryptography; their DNF representations correspond to realizations by circuits, in particular, by programmable logical matrices.
