Dimensional dual hyperovals associated with quadratic APN functions

From each quadratic APN function f on GF(2) with f(0) = 0, we construct a d-dimensional dual hyperoval S[f ] over GF(2). This provides many new examples of d-dual hyperovals over GF(2) with ambient spaces of dimension 2d + 2. The automorphism group of S[f ] is a semidirect product of a normal subgroup acting regularly on the members of S[f ] with the stabilizer of a member. Some methods are provided to analyse the structure of the stabilizer. Based on them, Aut(S[f ]) for an APN function f on GF(2) found in [3] is determined.
