We study a random polynomial of degree $n$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, where the coefficients are independent and identically distributed and uniformly chosen from the squares in $\mathbb{F}_q$. Our main result demonstrates that…

The construction of permutation trinomials over finite fields attracts people's interest recently due to their simple form and some additional properties. Motivated by some results on the construction of permutation trinomials with Niho…

Given a basis for a polynomial ring, the coefficients in the expansion of a product of some of its elements in terms of this basis are called linearization coefficients. These coefficients have combinatorial significance for many classical…

Let $s_{ij}$ represent a tranposition in $S_n$. A polynomial $P$ in $\mathbb{Q}[X_n]$ is said to be $m$-quasiinvariant with respect to $S_n$ if $(x_i-x_j)^{2m+1}$ divides $(1-s_{ij})P$ for all $1 \leq i, j \leq n$. We call the ring…

In this paper, we construct two classes of permutation polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ with odd characteristic from rational R\'{e}dei functions. A complete characterization of their compositional inverses is also given. These…

For each prime power q, we determine all polynomials over F_{q^2} of the form f(X) := aX^{3q}+bX^{2q+1}+cX^{q+2}+dX^3 which induce complete mappings of F_{q^2}, in the sense that each of the functions x --> f(x) and x --> f(x)+x permutes…

In this paper we take a deeper look at the self conjugate reciprocal (SCR) polynomials, which towards the end of the paper aid the construction of new classes of permutation polynomials of simpler forms over $\mathbb{F}_{q^{2}}$. The paper…

We demonstrate, using character sum arguments, the existence of primitive polynomials of degree n over a finite field GF(q) with the coefficients for x^(n-1), x^(n-2), and x^(n-3) prescribed, so long as char(GF(q)) is at least 5 and n is at…

We propose several techniques to construct complete permutation polynomials of finite fields by virtue of complete permutations of subfields. In some special cases, any complete permutation polynomials over a finite field can be used to…

Some polynomials $P$ with rational coefficients give rise to well defined maps between cyclic groups, $\Z_q\longrightarrow\Z_r$, $x+q\Z\longmapsto P(x)+r\Z$. More generally, there are polynomials in several variables with tuples of rational…

For an integer $r$, a prime power $q$, and a polynomial $f$ over a finite field ${\mathbb F}_{q^r}$ of $q^r$ elements, we obtain an upper bound on the frequency of elements in an orbit generated by iterations of $f$ which fall in a proper…

$q$-Analogues of the coefficients of $x^a$ in the expansion of $\prod_{j=1}^N (1+x+...+x^j)^{L_j}$ are proposed. Useful properties, such as recursion relations, symmetries and limiting theorems of the ``$q$-supernomial coefficients'' are…

After a brief review of existing results on permutation binomials of finite fields, we introduce the notion of equivalence among permutation binomials (PBs) and describe how to bring a PB to its canonical form under equivalence. We then…

Using arbitrary bases for the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$, we obtain the generalized M\"obius transformations (GMTs), which are a class of bijections between the projective geometry $PG(n-1,q)$ and the set of roots…

We address two interrelated problems concerning the permutation of roots of univariate polynomials whose coefficients depend on parameters. First, we compute the Galois group of polynomials $\varphi(x)\in\mathbb{C}[y_1,\cdots,y_k][x]$ over…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a finite field and let $f$ be a linear polynomial in $\mathbb{F}[x]$. We investigate the number of polynomials of degree $d$ which commute with $f$ under composition. In so doing, we rediscover a result of Park, but with…

In this paper we construct planar polynomials of the type $f_{A,B}(x)=x(x^{q^2}+Ax^{q}+Bx)\in \mathbb{F}_{q^3}[x]$, with $A,B \in \mathbb{F}_{q}$. In particular we completely classify the pairs $(A,B)\in \mathbb{F}_{q}^2$ such that…

Let $q$ be a prime power. We determine all permutation trinomials of $\Bbb F_{q^2}$ of the form $ax+bx^q+x^{2q-1}\in\Bbb F_{q^2}[x]$. The subclass of such permutation trinomials of $\Bbb F_{q^2}$ with $a,b\in\Bbb F_q$ was determined in a…

There are three families of bivariate polynomial maps associated with the rank-$2$ simple complex Lie algebras $A_2, B_2 \cong C_2$ and $G_2$. It is known that the bivariate polynomial map associated with $A_2$ induces a permutation of…
