We consider polynomial maps described by so-called "(multivariate) linearized polynomials". These polynomials are defined using a fixed prime power, say q. Linearized polynomials have no mixed terms. Considering invertible polynomial maps…

The goal of this note is to bring attention to an interesting family of rings: the rings of $\mathbb Z$-valued functions on $\mathbb Z$ and, more generally, infinite subsets of $\mathbb Z$ whose restrictions to all finite sets are given by…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field of characteristic $p$, and let $UT_n(\mathbb{F})$ be the algebra of $n \times n$ upper triangular matrices over $\mathbb{F}$ with an involution of the first kind. In this paper we describe: the set of all…

Let $p$ be a prime. In this paper, we give a complete classification of self-reciprocal polynomials arising from Fibonacci polynomials over $\mathbb{Z}$ and $\mathbb{Z}_p$, where $p=2$ and $p>5$. We also present some partial results when…

In this paper, we propose linear maps over the space of all polynomials $f(x)$ in $\mathbb{F}_q[x]$ that map $0$ to itself, through their evaluation map. Properties of these linear maps throw up interesting connections with permutation…

We study the rationality of the Artin-Mazur zeta function of a dynamical system defined by a polynomial self-map of A^1(k), where k is the algebraic closure of the finite field F_p. The zeta functions of the maps f(x)=x^m for (p,m)=1 and…

We explore the connection between cyclotomic mapping permutation polynomials and permutation polynomials of the form $x^rf(x^{\frac{q-1}{l}})$ over finite fields. We present a new necessary and a new sufficient condition to verify…

Framing triangulations of unit flow polytopes have received a great deal of recent study with rich connections to various generalizations of Catalan and Cambrian combinatorics as well as volume and h*-polynomial formulas. This story has…

We study the iterative behavior of the family of 3-step linear fractional recurrences and the family of birational maps they define. We determine all the possible periodicities within this family or, equivalently, the birational maps of…

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…

This paper is a direct continuation of the paper arXiv:2401.00053. By this reason neither introductory part of the paper nor the list of references are not duplicated. However for the reader convenience, the formulas from the first paper…

We introduce a new broadly unifying family of combinatorial objects, which we call permutation flows, associated to an acyclic directed graph $G$ together with a framing $F$. This new family is combinatorially rich and contains as special…

This is a short note that explains a problem on polynomial maps over finite fields for non-experts. The problem is: Do there exist odd polynomial automorphisms over the finite fields with 4,8,16,32,64,... elements? The explanation is very,…

In this paper, we construct families of polynomials defined by recurrence relations related to mean-zero random walks. We show these families of polynomials can be used to approximate $z^n$ by a polynomial of degree $\sim \sqrt{n}$ in…

In this paper we present an equivalent statement to the Jacobian conjecture. For a polynomial map F on an affine space of dimension n, we define recursively n finite sequences of polynomials. We give an equivalent condition to the…

Let $N_n(F)$ denote the ring of strictly upper triangular matrices with entries in a field $F$ of characteristic zero and center $Z(N_n(F))$. We characterize the $2$-power commuting maps over $N_n(F)$, maps satisfying the identity…

In this note, we give a shorter proof of the result of Zheng, Yu, and Pei on the explicit formula of inverses of generalized cyclotomic permutation polynomials over finite fields. Moreover, we characterize all these cyclotomic permutation…

Permutation polynomials have been a subject of study for a long time and have applications in many areas of science and engineering. However, only a small number of specific classes of permutation polynomials are described in the literature…

The number of linear independent algebraic relations among elementary symmetric polynomial functions over finite fields is computed. An algorithm able to find all such relations is described. It is proved that the basis of the ideal of…

In this paper we consider polynomial representability of functions defined over $Z_{p^n}$, where $p$ is a prime and $n$ is a positive integer. Our aim is to provide an algorithmic characterization that (i) answers the decision problem: to…
