Scattered polynomials over finite fields attracted an increasing attention in the last years. One of the reasons is their deep connection with Maximum Rank Distance (MRD) codes. Known classification results for exceptional scattered…

An elementary approach is shown which derives the values of the Gauss sums over $\mathbb F_{p^r}$, $p$ odd, of a cubic character without using Davenport-Hasse's theorem. New links between Gauss sums over different field extensions are shown…

We study polytopes associated to factorisations of prime powers. These polytopes have explicit descriptions either in terms of their vertices or as intersections of closed halfspaces associated to their facets. We give formulae for their…

A univariate polynomial f over a field is decomposable if it is the composition f = g(h) of two polynomials g and h whose degree is at least 2. We determine the dimension (over an algebraically closed field) of the set of decomposables, and…

We introduce the $B$-Stirling numbers of the first and second kind, which are the coefficients of the potential polynomials when we express them in terms of the monomials and the falling factorials, respectively. These numbers include, as…

Let $a(\lambda)$ and $b(\lambda)$ be two polynomials with coefficients in complex numbers and let $f_{\lamb$ be a one-parameter family of polynomials indexed by all complex numbers $\lambda$. We study whether there exist infinitely many…

We establish asymptotic upper bounds on the number of zeros modulo $p$ of certain polynomials with integer coefficients, with $p$ prime numbers arbitrarily large. The polynomials we consider have degree of size $p$ and are obtained by…

Let $\MP_d$ denote the space of polynomials $f: \C \to \C$ of degree $d\geq 2$, modulo conjugation by $\Aut(\C)$. Using properties of polynomial trees (as introduced in [DM, math.DS/0608759]), we show that if $f_n$ is a divergent sequence…

The prime divisors of a polynomial $P$ with integer coefficients are those primes $p$ for which $P(x) \equiv 0 \pmod{p}$ is solvable. Our main result is that the common prime divisors of any several polynomials are exactly the prime…

In this notice, we revisit the recent work [1] of Jung Yoog Kang and Tai Sup about special polynomials with exponential distribution in order to state some improvements and get new proofs for results therein.

Permutation polynomials over finite fields are an interesting subject due to their important applications in the areas of mathematics and engineering. In this paper we investigate the trinomial $f(x)=x^{(p-1)q+1}+x^{pq}-x^{q+(p-1)}$ over…

The $L$-function of exponential sums associated to the generic polynomial of degree $d$ in $n$ variables over a finite field of characteristic $p$ is studied. A polygon called the Frobenius polygon of the generic polynomial of degree $d$ in…

Permutation polynomials are an interesting subject of mathematics and have applications in other areas of mathematics and engineering. In this paper, we determine all permutation trinomials over $\mathbb{F}_{2^m}$ in Zieve's paper. We prove…

The purpose of this article is to prove some results on the Witt vectors of perfect $\mathbf{F}_p$-algebras. Let $A$ be a perfect $\mathbf{F}_p$-algebra for a prime integer $p$ and assume that $A$ has the property $\mathbf{P}$. Then does…

Let $P: \F \times \F \to \F$ be a polynomial of bounded degree over a finite field $\F$ of large characteristic. In this paper we establish the following dichotomy: either $P$ is a moderate asymmetric expander in the sense that $|P(A,B)|…

Linear codes have been an interesting topic in both theory and practice for many years. In this paper, for an odd prime $p$, we determine the explicit complete weight enumerators of two classes of linear codes over $\mathbb{F}_p$ and they…

Consider a semi-algebraic set A in R^d constructed from the sets which are determined by inequalities p_i(x)>0, p_i(x)\ge 0, or p_i(x)=0 for a given list of polynomials p_1,...,p_m. We prove several statements that fit into the following…

For a polynomial $f(x)\in\mathbb Z[x]$ without non-trivial linear relations among roots, we propose a conjecture on the distribution of the least root $r_p$ ($r_p\in\mathbb Z,\,0\le r_p<p)$ of $f(x)\equiv0\bmod p$ where $p$ runs over the…
