Abstract

We show that triangular families of Boolean functions comprise an exponentially small fraction of proper families of a given order. We prove that if F is a proper family of Boolean functions, then the number of solutions of an equation F(x) = A is even. Finally, we describe a new class of proper families of Boolean functions.
