For polynomials of degree two over finite fields, we present an improvement of Fitzgerald's characterization (Finite Fields Appl. 9(1):117-121, 2003). We then use this new characterization to obtain an explicit, complete, and simple…
We give a first-order definition of key polynomials, we show the links with previous definitions, that it is relevant to study key degrees, and to use a kind of valuations that we call partially multiplicative. We also prove or reprove…
Numerous results on self-reciprocal polynomials over finite fields have been studied. In this paper we generalize some of these to a-self reciprocal polynomials defined in [4]. We consider some properties of the divisibility of a-reciprocal…
The paper studies the question of existence of polynomials with given roots over associative non-commutative rings with identity. It is shown that in the case of an associative division ring for arbitrary n elements of this ring there…
In this paper, we give a fermionic p-adic integral representions of Benstein polynomials associated with Euler numbers and polynomials. Finally, we give some interesting identities for the Euler numbers by using the properties of our…
For $m$ an even positive integer and $p$ a prime, we show that the generalized Euler polynomial $E_{mp}^{(mp)}(x)$ is in Eisenstein form with respect to $p$ if and only if $p$ does not divide $m (2^m-1)B_m$. As a consequence, we deduce that…
We study the class of polynomials that map a local field (i.e., the completion of a number field at a non-Archimedean place) into the subset of its $p$-th powers, where $p$ is the residue characteristic of the field in question. We present…
For any finite field $\mathbb{F}$ and any positive integer $n$ we count the number of monic polynomials of degree $n$ over $\mathbb{F}$ with nonzero constant coefficient and a self-reciprocal factor of any specified degree. An application…
The paper studies the minimum polynomial degrees of $p$-elements in cross-characteristic representations of simple groups of exceptional Lie type whose BN-pair rank is at most 2. Specifically, we prove that the degree in question equals the…
A polynomial is called self-reciprocal (or palindromic) if the sequence of its coefficients is palindromic. In this paper we enumerate self-reciprocal irreducible monic polynomials over a finite field with prescribed leading coefficients.…
Let $p$ be a prime and let $\mathbb{Q}_p$ be the field of $p$-adic numbers. It is known that the finite extensions of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of a given degree are finite up to isomorphism. Given a cubic field extension $L$ of $\mathbb{Q}_p$…
We calculate extensions between certain irreducible admissible representations of p-adic groups.
We give two specializations of Krasner's mass formula. The first formula yields the number of extensions of a $\mathfrak{p}$-adic field with given, inertia degree, ramification index, discriminant, and ramification polygon. We then refine…
The p-adic valuation of a polynomial can be given by its valuation tree. This work describes the 2-adic valuation tree of the general degree 2 polynomial in 2 variables.
We study the roots of a random polynomial over the field of $p$-adic numbers. For a random monic polynomial with i.i.d. coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}_p$, we obtain an estimate for the expected number of roots of this polynomial. In…
We enumerate the number of isoclinism classes of semi-extraspecial $p$-groups with derived subgroup of order $p^2$. To do this, we enumerate $\text{GL}(2, p)$-orbits of sets of irreducible, monic polynomials in $\mathbb{F}_p[x]$. Along the…
We prove a version of van der Corput's Lemma for polynomials over the p-adic numbers.
We obtain a more precise version of an asymptotic formula of A. Dubickas for the number of monic Eisenstein polynomials of fixed degree $d$ and of height at most $H$, as $H\to \infty$. In particular, we give an explicit bound for the error…
The $p$-adic Newton polygon is a visual tool that encodes information about the roots and factorization of a polynomial relative to a prime $p$. In this article, we investigate how the Newton polygon changes under polynomial composition. If…
A group of order $p^n$ ($p$ prime) has an indecomposable polynomial invariant of degree at least $p^{n-1}$ if and only if the group has a cyclic subgroup of index at most $p$ or it is isomorphic to one of two particular groups of small…
