For an odd prime power $q$ satisfying $q\equiv 1\pmod 3$ we construct totally $2(q-1) $ permutation polyomials, all giving involutory permutations with exactly $ 1+ \frac{q-1}3$ fixed points. Among them $(q-1)$ polynomials are trinomials,…

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 $\sigma$…

We extend the proximity technique of Solymosi and Zahl [J. Combin. Theory, Ser. A (2024)] to the setting of trivariate polynomials. In particular, we prove the following result: Let $f(x,y,z)=(x-y)^2+(\varphi(x)-z)^2$, where $\varphi(x)\in…

We call a polynomial monogenic if a root $\theta$ has the property that $\mathbb{Z}[\theta]$ is the full ring of integers in $\mathbb{Q}(\theta)$. Consider the two families of trinomials $x^n + ax + b$ and $x^n + cx^{n-1} + d$. For any…

The probability for two monic polynomials of a positive degree n with coefficients in the finite field F_q to be relatively prime turns out to be identical with the probability for an n x n Hankel matrix over F_q to be nonsingular.…

Swan (Pacific J. Math. 12(3) (1962), 1099-1106) characterized the parity of the number of irreducible factors of trinomials over $F_2$. Many researchers have recently obtained Swan-like results on determining the reducibility of polynomials…
