In this work, we investigate generalized Weierstrass semigroups in arbitrary Kummer extensions of function field $\mathbb{F}_q(x)$. We analyze their structure and properties, with a particular emphasis on their maximal elements. Explicit…

The ring of finite ad\`eles $\Af$ of the rational numbers $\Q$ is obtained in this article as a completion of $\Q$ with respect to a certain non--Archimedean metric. This ultrametric allows to represent any finite ad\`ele as a series…

Let $C$ be an affine plane curve. We consider additive functions $f: K\rightarrow K$ for which $f(x)f(y)=0$, whenever $(x,y)\in C$. We show that if $K=\mathbb{R}$ and $C$ is the hyperbola with defining equation $xy=1$, then there exist…

In this paper we find a new lower bound on the number of imaginary quadratic extensions of the function field $\mathbb{F}_{q}(x)$ whose class groups have elements of a fixed odd order. More precisely, for $q$, a power of an odd prime, and…

We propose a new method of constructing q-ary propelinear perfect codes. The approach utilizes permutations of the fixed length q-ary vectors that arise from the automorphisms of the regular subgroups of the affine group. For any prime q it…

We prove that there are finitely many perfect powers in elliptic divisibility sequences generated by a non-integral point on elliptic curves of the from $y^2=x(x^2+b)$, where $b$ is any positive integer. We achieve this by using the…

For every $q=n^3$ with $n$ a prime power greater than $2$, the GK-curve is an $\mathbb F_{q^2}$-maximal curve that is not $\mathbb F_{q^2}$-covered by the Hermitian curve. In this paper some Galois subcovers of the GK curve are…

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…

A normal rational curve of the $(k-1)$-dimensional projective space over ${\mathbb F}_q$ is an arc of size $q+1$, since any $k$ points of the curve span the whole space. In this article we will prove that if $q$ is odd then a subset of size…

For any affine-variety code we show how to construct an ideal whose solutions correspond to codewords with any assigned weight. We classify completely the intersections of the Hermitian curve with lines and parabolas (in the…

Suppose $\mathcal{X}$ is an $n$-correct set of nodes in the plane, that is, it admits a unisolvent interpolation with bivariate polynomials of total degree less than or equal to $n.$ Then an algebraic curve $q$ of degree $k\le n$ can pass…

Let $\mathbb F_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements, where $q$ is a power of a prime. We discuss recursive methods for constructing irreducible polynomials over $\mathbb F_q$ of high degree using rational transformations. In particular,…

We prove that for every graph $H$ of maximum degree at most $3$ and for every positive integer $q$ there is a finite $f=f(H,q)$ such that every $K_f$-minor contains a subdivision of $H$ in which every edge is replaced by a path whose length…

We push further the classical proof of Weil upper bound for the number of rational points of an absolutely irreducible smooth projective curve $X$ over a finite field in term of euclidean relationships between the Neron Severi classes in…

We investigate the conditions on an integer sequence f(n), n 2 N, with f(1) = 0, such that the sequence q(n), computed recursively via q(n) = q(n - q(n - 1)) + f(n), with q(1) = 1, exists. We prove that f(n + 1) - f(n) in {0,1}, n > 0, is a…

In this paper, several infinite families of codes over the extension of non-unital non-commutative rings are constructed utilizing general simplicial complexes. Thanks to the special structure of the defining sets, the principal parameters…

There are many ways to construct the field R of real numbers. The most important and famous of these employ Cauchy sequences (Cantor) or cuts (Dedekind) in the field Q of rational numbers. These constructions sometimes overlook important…

The number A(q) shows the asymptotic behaviour of the quotient of the number of rational points over the genus of non-singular absolutely irreducible curves over a finite field Fq. Research on bounds for A(q) is closely connected with the…

Self-dual codes over finite fields and over some finite rings have been of interest and extensively studied due to their nice algebraic structures and wide applications. Recently, characterization and enumeration of Euclidean self-dual…
