An explicit triangular integral basis for any separable cubic extension of a function field

Abstract

We determine an explicit triangular integral basis for any separable cubic extension of a rational function field over a finite field in any characteristic. We obtain a formula for the discriminant of every such extension in terms of a standard form in a tower for the Galois closure.
