For a prime $p$, the OM algorithm finds the $p$-adic factorization of an irreducible polynomial $f\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ in polynomial time. This may be applied to construct $p$-integral bases in the number field $K$ defined by $f$. In this…
In this paper, for an odd prime $p$, several classes of two-weight linear codes over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$ are constructed from the defining sets, and then their complete weight distributions are determined by employing character…
Motivated by coding applications,two enumeration problems are considered: the number of distinct divisors of a degree-m polynomial over F = GF(q), and the number of ways a polynomial can be written as a product of two polynomials of degree…
Let $f$ be an irreducible polynomial of prime degree $p\geq 5$ over $\QQ$, with precisely $k$ pairs of complex roots. Using a result of Jens H\"{o}chsmann (1999), we show that if $p\geq 4k+1$ then $\Gal(f/\QQ)$ is isomorphic to $A_{p}$ or…
We obtain asymptotic formulas for sums over arithmetic progressions of coefficients of polynomials of the form $$\prod_{j=1}^n\prod_{k=1}^{p-1}(1-q^{pj-k})^s,$$ where $p$ is an odd prime and $n, s$ are positive integers. Let us denote by…
The prime divisors of a polynomial $P$ with integer coefficients are those primes $p$ for which $P(x) \equiv 0 \pmod{p}$ is solvable. Our main result is that the common prime divisors of any several polynomials are exactly the prime…
The aim of this paper is to show that any finite undirected bipartite graph can be considered as a polynomial $p \in \mathbb{N}[x]$, and any directed finite bipartite graph can be considered as a polynomial $p\in\mathbb{N}[x,y]$, and vise…
We present an algorithm which computes the multilinear factors of bivariate lacunary polynomials. It is based on a new Gap Theorem which allows to test whether a polynomial of the form P(X,X+1) is identically zero in time polynomial in the…
C.M. Bender and G. V. Dunne showed that linear combinations of words $q^{k}p^{n}q^{n-k}$, where $p$ and $q$ are subject to the relation $qp - pq = \imath$, may be expressed as a polynomial in the symbol $z = \tfrac{1}{2}(qp+pq)$. Relations…
In this note we prove a conjecture by Li, Qu, Li, and Fu on permutation trinomials over $\mathbb{F}_3^{2k}$. In addition, new examples and generalizations of some families of permutation polynomials of $\mathbb{F}_{3^k}$ and…
We consider summation of some finite and infinite functional p-adic series with factorials. In particular, we are interested in the infinite series which are convergent for all primes p, and have the same integer value for an integer…
A general method of obtaining linear differential equations having polynomial solutions is proposed. The method is based on an equivalence of the spectral problem for an element of the universal enveloping algebra of some Lie algebra in the…
In this paper we use algebraic curves and other algebraic number theory methods to show the validity of a permutation polynomial conjecture regarding $f(X)=X^{q(p-1)+1} +\alpha X^{pq}+X^{q+p-1}$, on finite fields $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}, q=p^k$,…
We study Schur Q-polynomials evaluated on a geometric progression, or equivalently q-enumeration of marked shifted tableaux, seeking explicit formulas that remain regular at q=1. We obtain several such expressions as multiple basic…
We extend our method to compute division polynomials of Jacobians of curves over Q to curves over Q(t), in view of computing mod ell Galois representations occurring in the \'etale cohomology of surfaces over Q. Although the division…
A generalization of the classical Lipschitz summation formula is proposed. It involves new polylogarithmic rational functions constructed via the Fourier expansion of certain sequences of Bernoulli--type polynomials. Related families of…
In this paper, we describe linear and cyclic codes over the rings of the form $R_{s,p}=\mathbb{Z}_{p}[u]/\left( f\left(u\right) /\left( u-s\right) \right)$, where $p$ is a prime number and $f\left( u\right) =u^{p}-u$, with $s\in…
In different areas of discrete mathematics, a certain type of polynomials, having coefficients in a field K of finite characteristic, has been considered. The form and the degree of these polynomials, here called projective, are simply…
In this note, we review some facts about polynomials representing functions modulo primes p. In addition we prove that the polynomial f(x) = x^{p-2} + x^{p-3} + ... + x^3 + x^2 + 2x + 1 represents the transposition (0 1) modulo p, that is,…
