For a fixed polynomial $\Delta$, we study the number of polynomials $f$ of degree $n$ over $\mathbb F_q$ such that $f$ and $f+\Delta$ are both irreducible, an $\mathbb F_q[T]$-analogue of the twin primes problem. In the large-$q$ limit, we…
In this paper, we consider a variant of Tur\'an's problem on the distance from an integer polynomial in $\mathbb{Z}[x]$ to the nea\-rest irreducible polynomial in $\mathbb{Z}[x]$. We prove that for any polynomial $f \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$,…
It is conjectured that all separable polynomials with integers coefficients, satisfying some local conditions, take infinitely many square free values on integer arguments. But not a single polynomial of degree greater than $3$ is proven to…
An exponential polynomial of order $q$ is an entire function of the form $$ f(z)=P_1(z)e^{Q_1(z)}+\cdots +P_k(z)e^{Q_k(z)}, $$ where the coefficients $P_j(z),Q_j(z)$ are polynomials in $z$ such that $$ \max\{\deg{Q_j}\}=q. $$ In 1977…
The purpose of this note is to study asymptotic zero distribution of multivariate random polynomials as their degrees grow. For a smooth weight function with super logarithmic growth at infinity, we consider random linear combinations of…
We provide some statistics about an irreducibility/reducibility test for multivariate polynomials over finite fields based on counting points. The test works best for polynomials in a large number of variables and can also be applied to…
Most integers are composite and most univariate polynomials over a finite field are reducible. The Prime Number Theorem and a classical result of Gau{\ss} count the remaining ones, approximately and exactly. For polynomials in two or more…
We determine all permutation polynomials over F_{q^2} of the form X^r A(X^{q-1}) where, for some Q which is a power of the characteristic of F_q, the integer r is congruent to Q+1 (mod q+1) and all terms of A(X) have degrees in {0, 1, Q,…
Let $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ be a finite field with $q^n$ elements, and let $m_1$ and $m_2$ be positive integers. Given polynomials $f_1(x), f_2(x) \in \mathbb{F}_q[x]$ with $\textrm{deg}(f_i(x)) \leq m_i$, for $i = 1, 2$, and such that the…
Suppose $C \subset \mathbb{C}$ is compact. Let $q_k$ be a sequence of polynomials of degree $n_k \to \infty$, such that the locus of roots of all the polynomials is bounded, and the number of roots of $q_k$ in any closed set $L$ not meeting…
New and old results on closed polynomials, i.e., such polynomials f in K[x_1,...,x_n] that the subalgebra K[f] is integrally closed in K[x_1,...,x_n], are collected. Using some properties of closed polynomials we prove the following…
We examine the distributions of non-commutative polynomials of non-atomic, freely independent random variables. In particular, we obtain an analogue of the Strong Atiyah Conjecture for free groups thus proving that the measure of each atom…
In this paper we study the problem of efficiently factorizing polynomials in the free noncommutative ring F of polynomials in noncommuting variables x1,x2,...,xn over the field F. We obtain the following result Given a noncommutative…
We show that there does not exist a generalised polynomial which vanishes precisely on the set of powers of two. In fact, if $k \geq 2$ is and integer and $g \colon \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{R}$ is a generalised polynomial such that $g(k^n) =…
We estimate mixed character sums of polynomial values over elements of a finite field $\mathbb F_{q^r}$ with sparse representations in a fixed ordered basis over the subfield $\mathbb F_q$. First we use a combination of the…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements, where $q$ is a power of a prime $p$. Recently, a particular action of the group $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb F_q)$ on irreducible polynomials in $\mathbb F_q[x]$ has been introduced and…
Permutation rational functions over finite fields have attracted much attention in recent years. In this paper, we introduce a class of permutation rational functions over $\mathbb F_{q^2}$, whose numerators are so-called $q$-quadratic…
We study the explicit factorization of $2^n r$-th cyclotomic polynomials over finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ where $q, r$ are odd with $(r, q) =1$. We show that all irreducible factors of $2^n r$-th cyclotomic polynomials can be obtained…
Scattered polynomials over finite fields attracted an increasing attention in the last years. One of the reasons is their deep connection with Maximum Rank Distance (MRD) codes. Known classification results for exceptional scattered…
$q$-analogs of special functions, including hypergeometric functions, play a central role in mathematics and have numerous applications in physics. In the theory of probability, $q$-analogs of various probability distributions have been…
