We consider the problem of finding a solution to a multivariate polynomial equation system of degree $d$ in $n$ variables over $\mathbb{F}_2$. For $d=2$, the best-known algorithm for the problem is by Bardet et al. [J. Complexity, 2013] and…

The classical Frobenius problem is to compute the largest number g not representable as a non-negative integer linear combination of non-negative integers x_1, x_2, ..., x_k, where gcd(x_1, x_2, ..., x_k) = 1. In this paper we consider…

Let $R$ be a ring of prime characteristic $p$, and let $F^e_* R$ denote $R$ viewed as an $R$-module via the $e$th iterated Frobenius map. Given a surjective map $\phi : F^e_* R \to R$ (for example a Frobenius splitting), we exhibit an…

We compute the Frobenius complexity for the determinantal ring of prime characteristic $p$ obtained by modding out the $2 \times 2$ minors of an $m \times n$ matrix of indeterminates, where $m > n \ge 2$. We also show that, as $p \to…

We consider a generalization of the Frobenius Problem where the object of interest is the greatest integer which has exactly $j$ representations by a collection of positive relatively prime integers. We prove an analogue of a theorem of…

For positive integers $a$, $b$, and $c$ which have no common divisor, the Frobenius number of $a$, $b$ and $c$ is defined to be the largest integer that cannot be expressed as a linear combination of $a$, $b$ and $c$ with non-negative…
