Cyclotomic coset is a classical notion in the theory of finite field which has wide applications in various computation problems. Let $q$ be a prime power, and $n$ be a positive integer coprime to $q$. In this paper we determine explicitly…
This paper provides two characterizations of the primitive roots of unity in quadratic cyclotomic extensions over arbitrary fields. Firstly, we introduce a mapping from $\mathbb{N}$ to $\mathbb{N}$ crucial for describing these roots,…
This paper presents a novel primality test based on the eigenvalue structure of circulant matrices constructed from roots of unity. We prove that an integer $n > 2$ is prime if and only if the minimal polynomial of the circulant matrix $C_n…
Cyclotomic polynomials are basic objects in Number Theory. Their properties depend on the number of distinct primes that intervene in the factorization of their order, and the binary case is thus the first nontrivial case. This paper sees…
We examine situations, where representations of a finite-dimensional $F$-algebra $A$ defined over a separable extension field $K/F$, have a unique minimal field of definition. Here the base field $F$ is assumed to be a $C_1$-field. In…
We mainly study a polynomial $f_{1,n}(x)=x^{n-1} + 2x^{n-2} + 3x^{n-3} + \cdots + kx^{n-k} + \cdots + (n-1)x + n$ over $\mathbb{Z}$ and the Galois group of the minimal splitting field. First, we show that an arbitrary root $\alpha_{n}$ of…
The chief aim of this paper is to describe a procedure which, given a $d$-dimensional absolutely irreducible matrix representation of a finite group over a finite field $\mathbb{E}$, produces an equivalent representation such that all…
In this paper, by using the theory of circulant matrices we study some matrices over finite fields which involve the quadratic character and trinomial coefficients.
In this paper, we prove that for any odd prime larger than 3, the modular group representation associated to the SO$(p)_2$-TQFT can be defined over the ring of integers of a cyclotomic field. We will provide explicit integral bases. In the…
Consider a random $n\times m$ matrix $A$ over the finite field of order $q$ where every column has precisely $k$ nonzero elements, and let $M[A]$ be the matroid represented by $A$. In the case that q=2, Cooper, Frieze and Pegden (RS\&A…
In Question 5.2 of [5], Hung and Tiep asked the following: If $\alpha$ is a sum of $k$ complex roots of unity and $\mathbb{Q}_{c(\alpha)}$ is the smallest cyclotomic field containing $\alpha$, is it true that…
Inspired by the works of L. Carlitz and Z.-W. Sun on cyclotomic matrices, in this paper, we investigate certain cyclotomic matrices involving Gauss sums over finite fields, which can be viewed as finite field analogues of certain matrices…
In this paper we determine the irreducible projective representations of sporadic simple groups over an arbitrary algebraically closed field F, whose image contains an almost cyclic matrix of prime-power order. A matrix M is called cyclic…
An {\em orthomorphism} over a finite field $\mathbb{F}$ is a permutation $\theta:\mathbb{F}\mapsto\mathbb{F}$ such that the map $x\mapsto\theta(x)-x$ is also a permutation of $\mathbb{F}$. The orthomorphism $\theta$ is {\em cyclotomic of…
Suppose that $K$ is a field of characteristic 0, $K_a$ is its algebraic closure, $p$ is a prime, $q=p^r$ is a power prime. Suppose that $f(x) \in K[x]$ is a polynomial of degree $n > 4$ without multiple roots. Let us consider the…
Let p be an odd prime. Let K = \Q(zeta) be the p-cyclotomic number field. Let v be a primitive root mod p and sigma : zeta --> zeta^v be a \Q-isomorphism of the extension K/\Q generating the Galois group G of K/\Q. For n in Z, the notation…
In this paper, we continue the study of unit reducible fields as introduced in \cite{LPL23} for the special case of cyclotomic fields. Specifically, we deduce that the cyclotomic fields of conductors $2,3,5,7,8,9,12,15$ are all unit…
Two naturally occurring matroids representable over Q are shown to be dual: the {\it cyclotomic matroid} $\mu_n$ represented by the $n^{th}$ roots of unity $1,\zeta,\zeta^2,...,\zeta^{n-1}$ inside the cyclotomic extension $Q(\zeta)$, and a…
As is well known, any complex cyclic matrix $A$ is similar to the unique companion matrix associated with the minimal polynomial of $A$. On the other hand, a cyclic matrix over a division ring $\mathbb F$ is similar to a companion matrix of…
We study a family of complex representations of the group GL(n,O), where O is the ring of integers of a non-archimedean local field F. These representations occur in the restriction of the Grassmann representation of GL(n,F) to its maximal…
