N2 - We consider the function x- 1 that inverses a finite field element x∈Fpn (p is prime, 0 - 1= 0) and affine Fp -subspaces of Fpn such that their images are affine subspaces as well. It is proved that the image of an affine subspace L, | L| > 2 , is an affine subspace if and only if L=sFpk , where s∈Fpn∗ and k∣ n . In other words, it is either a subfield of Fpn or a subspace consisting of all elements of a subfield multiplied by s . This generalizes the results that were obtained for linear invariant subspaces in 2006. As a consequence, the function x- 1 maps the minimum number of affine subspaces to affine subspaces among all invertible power functions. In addition, we propose a sufficient condition providing that a function A(x- 1) + b has no invariant affine subspaces U of cardinality 2 < | U| < pn for an invertible linear transformation A:Fpn→Fpn and b∈Fpn∗ . As an example, it is shown that the S-box of the AES satisfies the condition. Also, we demonstrate that some functions of the form αx- 1+ b have no invariant affine subspaces except for Fpn , where α,b∈Fpn∗ and n is arbitrary.
