There are infinitely many bent functions for which the dual is not bent

Bent functions can be classified into regular bent functions, weakly regular but not regular bent functions, and non-weakly regular bent functions. Regular and weakly regular bent functions always appear in pairs since their duals are also bent functions. In general this does not apply to non-weaky regular bent functions. However, the first known construction of non-weakly regular bent functions by Ce\c{s}melio\u{g}lu et {\it al.}, 2012, yields bent functions for which the dual is also bent. In this paper the first construction of non-weakly regular bent functions for which the dual is not bent is presented. We call such functions non-dual-bent functions. Until now, only sporadic examples found via computer search were known. We then show that with the direct sum of bent functions and with the construction by Ce\c{s}melio\u{g}lu et {\it al.} one can obtain infinitely many non-dual-bent functions once one example of a non-dual-bent function is known.
