On the relevance of the strict avalance criterion
S. Babbage · Electronics Letters · 1990
Some recent work concerning the strict avalanche criterion for a Boolean function has been motivated by the claim that a certain cryptographically useful property will be true of any function satisfying the criterion. In the letter it is observed that not only is this claim untrue, but that possession of the property in question is in fact precluded by satisfaction of the strict avalanche criterion.
