For the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{2^{3m}}$, permutation polynomials of the form $(x^{2^m}+x+\delta)^{s}+cx$ are studied. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the polynomials to be permutation polynomials. For this, the…

Let ${\mathbb F}_q$ be a finite field of characteristic two and ${\mathbb F}_q(X_1,...,X_n)$ a rational function field. We use matrix methods to obtain explicit transcendental bases of the invariant subfields of orthogonal groups and…

We study deterministic and quantum dynamics from a constructive "finite" point of view, since the introduction of a continuum, or other actual infinities in physics poses serious conceptual and technical difficulties, without any need for…

Let $m$ be a positive integer, $q$ be a prime power, and $\mathrm{PG}(2,q)$ be the projective plane over the finite field $\mathbb F_q$. Finding complete $m$-arcs in $\mathrm{PG}(2,q)$ of size less than $q$ is a classical problem in finite…

In this paper we study the possibility to define irreducible representations of the symmetric groups with the help of finitely many relations. The existence of finite bases is established for the classes of representations corresponding to…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ be the ring of polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$, the finite field of $q$ elements, and let $p$ be the characteristic of $\mathbb{F}_q$. We denote $\widetilde{G}_q(k)$ to be the least integer $t_0$ with the property that…

We introduce a new type of reduction of inversive difference polynomials that is associated with a partition of the basic set of automorphisms $\sigma$ and uses a generalization of the concept of effective order of a difference polynomial.…

In higher dimensional gauge theory, we need energies with higher power terms of field strength in order to realize point-wise monopoles. We consider new models with higher power terms of field strength and extraordinary kinetic term of…

We show the finiteness of perfect powers in orbits of polynomial dynamical systems over an algebraic number field. We also obtain similar results for perfect powers represented by ratios of consecutive elements in orbits. Assuming the…

Let $\mathcal{R}$ be a finite valuation ring of order $q^r$. In this paper we generalize and improve several well-known results, which were studied over finite fields $\mathbb{F}_q$ and finite cyclic rings $\mathbb{Z}/p^r\mathbb{Z}$, in the…

We establish bounds on a finite separable extension of function fields in terms of the relative class number, thus reducing the problem of classifying extensions with a fixed relative class number to a finite computation. We also solve the…

For a quantum system with broken parity symmetry, selection rules can not hold and cyclic transition structures are generated. With these loop-transitions we discuss how to achieve inversionless gain of the probe field by properly setting…

We discuss the problem of constructing a small subset of a finite field containing primitive elements of the field. Given a finite field, $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$, small $q$ and large $n$, we show that the set of all low degree polynomials…

We obtain multiplicity results for a class of first-order superquadratic Hamiltonian systems and a class of indefinite superquadratic elliptic systems which lead to the study of strongly indefinite functionals. There is no assumption to the…

We survey recent progress in a program aimed at proving general Fatou-type results and establishing the well-posedness of a variety of boundary value problems in the upper half-space ${\mathbb{R}}^n_{+}$ for second-order, homogeneous,…

In 2018, Legrand and Paran proved a weaker form of the Inverse Galois Problem for all Hilbertian fields and all finite groups: that is, there exist possibly non-Galois extensions over given Hilbertian base field with given finite group as…

We construct and study fields F with the property that F has infinitely many extensions of some fixed degree, but E*/(E*)^n is finite for every finite extension E of F and every n>0.

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…

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…

We obtain divisibility conditions on the multiplicative orders of elements of the form $\zeta + \zeta^{-1}$ in a finite field by exploiting a link to the arithmetic of real quadratic fields.
