In this note we settle two open problems in the theory of permanents by using recent results from other areas of mathematics. Bapat conjectured that certain quotients of permanents, which generalize symmetric function means, are concave. We…

Permutation rational functions over finite fields have attracted much attention in recent years. In this paper, we introduce a class of permutation rational functions over $\mathbb F_{q^2}$, whose numerators are so-called $q$-quadratic…

In this paper we prove a conjecture of J. Andrade, S. J. Miller, K. Pratt and M. Trinh, showing the existence of a non trivial infinite $F$-set over $\mathbb F_q[x]$ for every fixed $q$. We also provide the proof of a refinement of the…

Let $q=2^e$ with $e$ even, and let $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ be the finite field of order $q^2$. Put $d=(q^2+q+1)/3$, and consider the permutation polynomial $$\sigma(X)=X+X^d+X^{dq}\in\mathbb{F}_{q^2}[X].$$ For $\alpha\in\mathbb{F}_q^*$, define…

According to Abel's lemma and the method of linear combinations, we establish numerous contiguous relations of $_3\phi_2$-series, which can be regarded as q-analogues of the contiguous relations of $_3F_2$-series due to Krattenthaler and…

We prove that the enumerative polynomials of quasi-Stirling permutations of multisets with respect to the statistics of plateaux, descents and ascents are partial $\gamma$-positive, thereby confirming a recent conjecture posed by Lin, Ma…

In this paper we introduce and discuss the sequence of \emph{real numbers} defined as $u_0 \in \mathbb R$ and $u_{n+1} = \Delta(u_n)$ where \begin{equation*} \Delta(x) = \begin{cases} \frac{x}{2} &\text{if }…

A Bernstein type inequality is obtained for the Jacobi polynomials $P_n^{\alpha,\beta}(x)$, which is uniform for all degrees $n\ge0$, all real $\alpha,\beta\ge0$, and all values $x\in [-1,1]$. It provides uniform bounds on a complete set of…

We study algebras satisfying a two-term multilinear identity, namely one of the form $x_1 \cdots x_n= q x_{\sigma(1)} \cdots x_{\sigma(n)}$, where $q$ is a parameter from the base field. We show that such algebras with $q=1$ and $\sigma$…

In this paper, we propose a new method to obtain new permutation polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$. Using this method, we extend many known permutation polynomials, which take the form $\sum_i(x^q-x+\delta)^{s_i}+L(x)$, where $L(x)$ is a…

Let $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ be a finite field with $q^n$ elements, and let $m_1$ and $m_2$ be positive integers. Given polynomials $f_1(x), f_2(x) \in \mathbb{F}_q[x]$ with $\textrm{deg}(f_i(x)) \leq m_i$, for $i = 1, 2$, and such that the…

Recently, Jiang et al. \cite{JIANG2025102522} obtained several classes of Permutation Polynomial of the form $x+\gamma\operatorname{Tr}_q^{q^2}(h(x))$ over finite fields $\mathbb{F}_{q^2},q=2^n$. In this paper, we find the compositional…

Given a power $q$ of a prime number $p$ and "nice" polynomials $f_1,...,f_r\in\bbF_q[T,X]$ with $r=1$ if $p=2$, we establish an asymptotic formula for the number of pairs $(a_1,a_2)\in\bbF_q^2$ such that…

Given a scalar parameter $q$, the $q$-deformed Heisenberg algebra $\mathcal{H}(q)$ is the unital associative algebra with two generators $A,B$ that satisfy the $q$-deformed commutation relation $AB-qBA= I$, where $I$ is the multiplicative…

A pair of adjoint functors $(F,G)$ is called a Frobenius pair of the second type if $G$ is a left adjoint of $\beta F\alpha$ for some category equivalences $\alpha$ and $\beta$. Frobenius ring extensions of the second kind provide examples…

In [Baumeister, H., Nill, Paffenholz, On permutation polytopes, Adv. Math. 222 (2009), 431-452 / arXiv:0709.1615] we conjectured a characterization of subgroups H of a permutation group G so that, on the level of permutation polytopes, P(H)…

In this paper, we present a linear algebraic approach to the study of permutation polynomials that arise from linear maps over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$. We study a particular class of permutation polynomials over…

In this short paper, the commutator of monomials of operators obeying constant commutation relations is expressed in terms of anticommutators. The formula involves Bernoulli numbers or Euler polynomials evaluated in zero. The role of…
