Permutation polynomials over finite fields have taken an important role in vast areas in mathematics as well as engineering. Recently, Tu et al. gave some classes of complete permutation polynomials over finite fields of even…
Permutation polynomials (PPs) and their inverses have applications in cryptography, coding theory and combinatorial design theory. In this paper, we make a brief summary of the inverses of PPs of finite fields, and give the inverses of all…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field of $q$ elements. Then a \emph{permutation polynomial} (PP) of $\mathbb{F}_q$ is a polynomial $f \in \mathbb{F}_q[x]$ such that the associated function $c \mapsto f(c)$ is a permutation of the elements…
The module category of any artin algebra is filtered by the powers of its radical, thus defining an associated graded category. As an extension of the degree of irreducible morphisms, this text introduces the degree of morphisms in the…
While the twin prime conjecture is still famously open, it holds true in the setting of finite fields: There are infinitely many pairs of monic irreducible polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$ that differ by a fixed constant, for each $q \geq…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the field with $q$ elements and of characteristic $p$. For $a\in\mathbb{F}_p$ consider the set \begin{equation*} S_a(n)=\{f\in\mathbb{F}_q[x]\mid\operatorname{deg}(f)=n,~f\text{ irreducible, monic and}…
We prove that, for every invertible horizontal-like map (i.e., H{\'e}non-like map) in any dimension, the sequence of the dynamical degrees is increasing until that of maximal value, which is the main dynamical degree, and decreasing after…
Given a polynomial P in several variables over an algebraically closed field, we show that except in some special cases that we fully describe, if one coefficient is allowed to vary, then the polynomial is irreducible for all but at most…
Planar functions are mappings from a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ to itself with an extremal differential property. Such functions give rise to finite projective planes and other combinatorial objects. There is a subtle difference between…
Let $f=a{\tt x} +b{\tt x}^q+{\tt x}^{2q-1}\in\Bbb F_q[{\tt x}]$. We find explicit conditions on $a$ and $b$ that are necessary and sufficient for $f$ to be a permutation polynomial of $\Bbb F_{q^2}$. This result allows us to solve a related…
We first introduce the class of quasi-algebraically stable meromorphic maps of $\P^k.$ This class is strictly larger than that of algebraically stable meromorphic self-maps of $\P^k.$ Then we prove that all maps in the new class enjoy a…
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…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of odd characteristic. We study R\'edei functions that induce permutations over $\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{F}_q)$ whose cycle decomposition contains only cycles of length $1$ and $j$, for an integer $j\geq…
Numerous results on self-reciprocal polynomials over finite fields have been studied. In this paper we generalize some of these to a-self reciprocal polynomials defined in [4]. We consider some properties of the divisibility of a-reciprocal…
Let $p$ be a prime and $b(x)$ be an irreducible polynomial of degree $k$ over $\mathbb{F}_p$. Let $d\geq 1$ be an integer. Consider the following question: Is $b(x^d)$ irreducible? We derive necessary conditions for $b(x^d)$ to be…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements, and $T$ a positive integer. In this article we find a sharp estimative of the total number of monic irreducible binomials in $\mathbb F_q[x]$ of degree less or equal to $T$, when $T$…
Constructing $r$-th nonresidue over a finite field is a fundamental computational problem. A related problem is to construct an irreducible polynomial of degree $r^e$ (where $r$ is a prime) over a given finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of…
Interesting properties of the partitions of a finite field $\mathbb F_q$ induced by the combination of involutions and trace maps are studied. The special features of involutions of the form $\frac{u}{z}$, $u$ being a fixed element of…
In the present paper, we propose the modified q-Bernstein polynomials of degree n, which are different q-Bernstein polynomials of Phillips(see [4]). From these the modified q-Bernstein polynomials of degree n, we derive some interesting…
The goal of this paper is the exact computation of the degrees $\text{deg}(f^n)$ of the iterates of birational maps $f: \mathbb{P}^N \dashrightarrow \mathbb{P}^N$. In the preceding companion paper, a new method has been proposed based on…
