Statement (paper)

Let E⊂F2rE\subset\F_2^r be a set of more than 3r3r distinct nonzero inputs, and take an injective parametrization zi(t)=∑jxijtjz_i(t)=\sum_j x_{ij}t_j. If some binary linear map gg satisfies the alignment condition on all of EE, then the vector c=(z1(t)z2(t)z3(t))t∈Ec=\bigl(\sqrt{z_1(t)z_2(t)z_3(t)}\bigr)_{t\in E} lies in the FF-column span of the 3r3r-column matrix Mt,(i,j)=tjzi(t)M_{t,(i,j)}=t_jz_i(t), t∈Et\in E, 1≤i≤31\le i\le 3, 1≤j≤r1\le j\le r. Conversely, membership of cc in this column span supplies the basis values of such a gg, so this column-membership condition accounts for all possible maps gg.

In plain English

For a set E⊂F2rE\subset\F_2^r of more than 3r3r distinct nonzero inputs, if some binary linear map gg satisfies the alignment condition on all of EE, then the vector c=(z1(t)z2(t)z3(t))t∈Ec=(\sqrt{z_1(t)z_2(t)z_3(t)})_{t\in E} lies in the FF-column span of the 3r3r-column matrix Mt,(i,j)=tjzi(t)M_{t,(i,j)}=t_jz_i(t). Conversely, membership of cc in that span yields the basis values of such a gg, so this condition covers every possible gg.

Why it's here

This turns the question of whether any aligned linear map exists into a single linear-algebra condition on the xijx_{ij}, namely whether cc lies in the column span of MM. That condition can then be handled by treating the xijx_{ij} as indeterminates, as the next claim does with non-membership over the function field, to show a random subspace is generic with high probability.}</br>
Classified routine:
This step rewrites the alignment condition, linear in the unknown basis values of g, as a column-span membership statement for an explicit matrix. It is a direct linear-algebra reformulation inside the genericity proof and uses no new idea.
