Carlet's cyclic-additive conjecture for the Kasami monomials

Let $K$ be a finite field of characteristic two with $|K| = 2^{n}$, let $\gcd(k,n) = 1$, let $d_{k} = 4^{k} - 2^{k} + 1$ be the Kasami exponent, and let $\Delta_{k} = \{(b+1)^{d_{k}} + b^{d_{k}} + 1 : b \in K\}$ be the image of the normalised derivative of the Kasami monomial in the direction $1$. We show that, for all...
