In this short note, we prove several new congruences for the overcubic partition triples function, using both elementary techniques and the theory of modular forms. These extend the recent list of such congruences given by Nayaka,…

In this paper we take a deeper look at the self conjugate reciprocal (SCR) polynomials, which towards the end of the paper aid the construction of new classes of permutation polynomials of simpler forms over $\mathbb{F}_{q^{2}}$. The paper…

In this paper we give a new family of APN trinomials of the form $X^{2^k+1} + (\mathsf{tr}^{n}_{m}(X))^{2^k+1}$ on $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$ where $\mathsf{gcd}(k,n)=1$ and $n = 2m = 4t$, and prove its important properties. The family satisfies…

Permutation rational functions over finite fields have attracted high interest in recent years. However, only a few of them have been exhibited. This article studies a class of permutation rational functions constructed using trace maps on…

In \cite{D1}, Dickson listed all permutation polynomials up to degree 5 over an arbitrary finite field, and all permutation polynomials of degree 6 over finite fields of odd characteristic. The classification of degree 6 permutation…

Nonsingular plane curves over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of degree $q+2$ passing through all the $\mathbb{F}_q$-points of the plane admita representation by $3\times 3$ matrices over $\mathbb{F}_q$. We classify their degenerations by…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of permutation for which the associated permutation polynomial has degree smaller than $q-2$.

We determine which quadratic polynomials in three variables are expanders over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$. More precisely, we prove that for a quadratic polynomial $f\in \mathbb{F}[x,y,z]$, which is not of the form $g(h(x)+k(y)+l(z))$,…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a finite field and let $f$ be a linear polynomial in $\mathbb{F}[x]$. We investigate the number of polynomials of degree $d$ which commute with $f$ under composition. In so doing, we rediscover a result of Park, but with…

We discuss quadratic transformations for orthogonal polynomials in one and two variables. In the one-variable case we list many (or all) quadratic transformations between families in the Askey scheme or $q$-Askey scheme. In the two-variable…

We consider rational functions of the form $V(x)/U(x)$, where both $V(x)$ and $U(x)$ are polynomials over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. Polynomials that permute the elements of a field, called {\it permutation polynomials ($PPs$)}, have…

The use of permutation polynomials has appeared, along to their compositional inverses, as a good choice in the implementation of cryptographic systems. Hence, there has been a demand for constructions of these polynomials which…

Though it is well known that the roots of any affine polynomial over a finite field can be computed by a system of linear equations by using a normal base of the field, such solving approach appears to be difficult to apply when the field…
