In this paper, we find all the generic polynomials for geometric $\ell$-cyclic function field extensions over the finite fields $\mathbb{F}_q$ where $q= p^n$, $p$ prime integer such that $q \equiv -1 \mod \ell$ and $(\ell , p)=1$.
Let F_{q^n} be the field of order q^n, and let Tr be the trace map from F_{q^n} to its q-element subfield. We exhibit nine sequences of polynomials of the form f(x):=x+c*Tr(x^k), with c in F_{q^n}, such that for each polynomial the function…
Let $K=\mathbb{Q}(\omega)$ with $\omega$ the root of a degree $n$ monic irreducible polynomial $f\in\mathbb{Z}[X]$. We show the degree $n$ polynomial $N(\sum_{i=1}^{n-k}x_i\omega^{i-1})$ in $n-k$ variables formed by setting the final $k$…

Let $K$ be a global field and $n > 1$ an integer. We show $n$ is composite if and only if there is an irreducible polynomial $f(x) \in K[x]$ of degree $n$ which is reducible $q$-adically for all the primes $q$ of $K$.
In this article, we consider polynomials of the form $f(x)=a_0+a_{n_1}x^{n_1}+a_{n_2}x^{n_2}+\dots+a_{n_r}x^{n_r}\in \mathbb{Z}[x],$ where $|a_0|\ge |a_{n_1}|+\dots+|a_{n_r}|,$ $|a_0|$ is a prime power and $|a_0|\nmid |a_{n_1}a_{n_r}|$. We…
The $R_{\sigma,t}$-transform introduced by Bassa and Menares can be used to construct families of irreducible polynomials in $\mathbb{F}_q[x]$. This iterative construction is a generalization of Cohen's $R$-transform. For this transform,…
In this paper we study some generalized versions of a recent result due to Covert, Koh, and Pi (2015). More precisely, we prove that if a subset $\mathcal{E}$ in a regular variety satisfies $|\mathcal{E}|\gg…
Let $\ell$ be an odd prime, $q$ an odd prime power such that $q \not\equiv 0 \pmod \ell$, and $m$ the order of $q$ in $\F_\ell^\times$. We propose an explicit $L$-polynomial of hyperelliptic function field $K:=\F_q(T,…

In different areas of discrete mathematics, a certain type of polynomials, having coefficients in a field K of finite characteristic, has been considered. The form and the degree of these polynomials, here called projective, are simply…
We introduce a class of permutation polynomial over $\mathbb F_{q^n}$ that can be written in the form $\frac{L(x)}{x^{q+1}}$ or $\frac{L(x^{q+1})}x$ for some $q$-linear polynomial $L$ over $\mathbb F_{q^n}$. Specifically, we present those…
Let $A$ be a Dedekind domain, $K$ the fraction field, $\p$ a non-zero prime ideal of $A$, and $K_\pp$ the completion of $K$ with respect to the $\p$-adic topology. At the input of a monic irreducible separable polynomial, $f(x)\in A[x]$,…
In [GW09a] we conjectured that uniformity of degree $k-1$ is sufficient to control an average over a family of linear forms if and only if the $k$th powers of these linear forms are linearly independent. In this paper we prove this…
Most results on the value sets $V_f$ of polynomials $f \in \mathbb{F}_q[x]$ relate the cardinality $|V_f|$ to the degree of $f$. In particular, the structure of the spectrum of the class of polynomials of a fixed degree $d$ is rather well…
