Let $p>3$ be a prime, and let $m$ be an integer with $p\nmid m$. In the paper, by using the work of Ishii and Deuring's theorem for elliptic curves with complex multiplication we solve some conjectures of Zhi-Wei Sun concerning…
In this paper, we prove two conjectures of Z.-W. Sun: $$2n\binom{2n}n\big|\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}(3k+1)\binom{2k}k^3{16}^{n-1-k}\ \mbox{for}\ \mbox{all}\ n=2,3,\cdots,$$ and $$\sum_{k=0}^{(p-1)/2}\frac{3k+1}{16^k}\binom{2k}{k}^3\equiv…
Suppose $k,x,$ and $b$ are positive integers, and $a$ is a nonnegative integer such that $k=a+b$. In this paper, we will prove $\binom{2k}{k} = \binom{2a}{a} \binom{x+2b}{b}$ if and only if $x=a=1$. We do this by looking at different cases…
We give formulas for the number of polynomials over a finite field with given root multiplicities, in particular in cases when the formula is surprisingly simple (a power of q). Besides this concrete interpretation, we also prove an…
Let $q$ be a prime power. We determine all permutation trinomials of $\Bbb F_{q^2}$ of the form $ax+bx^q+x^{2q-1}\in\Bbb F_{q^2}[x]$. The subclass of such permutation trinomials of $\Bbb F_{q^2}$ with $a,b\in\Bbb F_q$ was determined in a…
The Delannoy polynomial $D_n(x)$ is defined by $$ D_n(x)=\sum_{k=0}^{n}{n\choose k}{n+k\choose k}x^k. $$ We prove that, if $x$ is an integer and $p$ is a prime not dividing $x(x+1)$, then \begin{align*} \sum_{k=0}^{p-1}(2k+1)D_k(x)^3…
Permutation polynomials with few terms (especially permutation binomials) attract many people due to their simple algebraic structure. Despite the great interests in the study of permutation binomials, a complete characterization of…
We have primarily obtained three results on numbers of the form $p + 2^k$. Firstly, we have constructed many arithmetic progressions, each of which does not contain numbers of the form $p + 2^k$, disproving a conjecture by Erd\H{o}s as Chen…
This report formulates a conjectural combinatorial rule that positively expands Grothendieck polynomials into Lascoux polynomials. It generalizes one such formula expanding Schubert polynomials into key polynomials, and refines another one…
Baxter permutations originally arose in studying common fixed points of two commuting continuous functions. In 2015, Dilks proposed a conjectured bijection between Baxter permutations and non-intersecting triples of lattice paths in terms…
Let $ p \ge 5 $ be a prime and let $ b, c \in \mathbb{Z} $. Denote by $ T_k(b,c) $ the generalized central trinomial coefficient, i.e., the coefficient of $ x^k $ in $ (x^2 + bx + c)^k $. In this paper, we establish congruences modulo $ p^3…
We investigate the permutation property of polynomials of the form $x^{r}(x^{s} -a)^{t}$, and give the expressions of their inverses. In particular, explicit expressions of inverses of permutation polynomials $x(x^3 -a)^2$ and $x(x^2 -a)^3$…
We give a new formula for double Grothendieck polynomials based on Magyar's orthodontia algorithm for diagrams. Our formula implies a similar formula for double Schubert polynomials $\mathfrak S_w(\mathbf x;\mathbf y)$. We also prove a…
In this paper, we prove the abundance conjecture for threefolds over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p > 3$ in the case of numerical dimension equals to $2$. More precisely, we prove that if $(X,B)$ be a projective lc threefold pair…
Let $f={\tt X}^r(a+{\tt X}^{2(q-1)})\in{\Bbb F}_{q^2}[{\tt X}]$, where $a\in{\Bbb F}_{q^2}^*$ and $r\ge 1$. The parameters $(q,r,a)$ for which $f$ is a permutation polynomial (PP) of ${\Bbb F}_{q^2}$ have been determined in the following…
We prove that if x^m + c*x^n permutes the prime field GF(p), where m>n>0 and c is in GF(p)^*, then gcd(m-n,p-1) > sqrt{p} - 1. Conversely, we prove that if q>=4 and m>n>0 are fixed and satisfy gcd(m-n,q-1) > 2q*(log log q)/(log q), then…

In this paper, we investigate some congruences involving sums of $\frac{d^{-k}{x\choose k}{x+k\choose k}}{{2k \choose k}}$, where $x$ be a $p$-adic integer, $k$ be a non-negative integer, and $d$ $(d\neq 0)$ be a rational number.
R. Gupta, P. Gahlyan and R.K. Sharma presented three classes of permutation trinomials over $\mathbb{F}_{q^3}$ in Finite Fields and Their Applications. In this paper, we employ the local method to prove that those polynomials are indeed…
