Title:
On low degree polynomials in 2-round AES

Authors: Igor Semaev

Abstract:

Recent observations on polynomial structures of AES-like round functions are analysed in this note. We present computational evidence that input/output bits of AES-like 2-round transform up to 40-bit, constructed with 8-bit AES S-boxes, do not satisfy any relations of degree 3. So it is very unlikely that actual AES 2-round transform admits any relations of degree \leq 3.
