Let $q$ be a prime power. We estimate the number of tuples of degree bounded monic polynomials $(Q_1,\ldots,Q_v) \in (\mathbb{F}_q[z])^v$ that satisfy given pairwise coprimality conditions. We show how this generalises from monic…

We classify those finite fields $\mathbb{F}_q$, for $q$ a power of some fixed prime number, whose members are the sum of an $n$-potent element with $n>1$ and a 4-potent element. It is shown that there are precisely ten non-trivial pairs…

Let $r$ be a positive integer, $h(X)\in\Bbb F_{q^2}[X]$, and $\mu_{q+1}$ be the subgroup of order $q+1$ of $\Bbb F_{q^2}^*$. It is well known that $X^rh(X^{q-1})$ permutes $\Bbb F_{q^2}$ if and only if $\text{gcd}(r,q-1)=1$ and…

A ternary inclusion-exclusion polynomial is a polynomial of the form \[ Q_{{p,q,r}}=\frac{(z^{pqr}-1)(z^p-1)(z^q-1)(z^r-1)} {(z^{pq}-1)(z^{qr}-1)(z^{rp}-1)(z-1)}, \] where $p$, $q$, and $r$ are integers $\ge3$ and relatively prime in pairs.…

Permutation polynomials (PPs) of the form $(x^{q} -x + c)^{\frac{q^2 -1}{3}+1} +x$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ were presented by Li, Helleseth and Tang [Finite Fields Appl. 22 (2013) 16--23]. More recently, we have constructed PPs of the form…
