Abstract

In [U. Dempwolff: \textit{More Translation Planes and Semifields from Dembowski-Ostrom Polynomials}, Designs, Codes, Cryptogr. \textbf{68} (1-3) (2013), 81--103] three classes of rank two presemifields of order q2nq^{2n}, with qq and nn odd, were exhibited, leaving as an open problem the isotopy issue. In [M. Lavrauw, G. Marino, O. Polverino, R. Trombetti: \textit{Solution to an isotopism question concerning rank 2 semifields}, J. Comb. Des., to appear. DOI: 10.1002/jcd.21382], the authors faced with this problem answering the question whether these presemifields are new for n>3n>3. In this paper we complete the study solving the case n=3n=3.
