Let $q>2$ be a prime power and $f={\tt x}^{q-2}+t{\tt x}^{q^2-q-1}$, where $t\in\Bbb F_q^*$. It was recently conjectured that $f$ is a permutation polynomial of $\Bbb F_{q^2}$ if and only if one of the following holds: (i) $t=1$, $q\equiv…

Up to linear transformations, we obtain a classification of permutation polynomials (PPs) of degree $8$ over $\mathbb{F}_{2^r}$ with $r>3$. By [J. Number Theory 176 (2017) 466-66], a polynomial $f$ of degree $8$ over $\mathbb{F}_{2^r}$ is…

We determine all permutation polynomials over F_{q^2} of the form X^r A(X^{q-1}) where, for some Q which is a power of the characteristic of F_q, the integer r is congruent to Q+1 (mod q+1) and all terms of A(X) have degrees in {0, 1, Q,…
