We describe several families of permutation polynomials obtained using functions with linear translators.

We classify rooted trees which have strictly unimodal q-polynomials (plucking polynomial). We also give criteria for a trapezoidal shape of a plucking polynomial. We generalize results of Pak and Panova on strict unimodality of q-binomial…

Motivated by recent results on the constructions of permutation polynomials with few terms over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$, where $n$ is a positive even integer, we focus on the construction of permutation trinomials over…

Consider a Chevalley group over a finite field $F_q$ such that the longest element of the Weyl group is central. We construct an involution $\xi\mapsto\xi^!$ of the set of unipotent representations of this group such that the degree…

It is shown that a finite group in which more than 3/4 of the elements are involutions must be an elementary abelian 2-group. A group in which exactly 3/4 of the elements are involutions is characterized as the direct product of the…

In this work, we completely characterize (i) permutation binomials of the form $x^{{{2^n -1}\over {2^t-1}}+1}+ ax \in \mathbb{F}_{2^n}[x], n = 2^st, a \in \mathbb{F}_{2^{2t}}^{*}$, and (ii) permutation trinomials of the form…

This paper explores a natural action of the group $\mathrm{PGL}_2(\mathbb F_q)$ on the set of monic irreducible polynomials of degree at least two over a finite field $\mathbb F_q$. Our main results deal with the existence and number of…

Let $f={\tt X}^r(a+{\tt X}^{2(q-1)})\in{\Bbb F}_{q^2}[{\tt X}]$, where $a\in{\Bbb F}_{q^2}^*$ and $r\ge 1$. The parameters $(q,r,a)$ for which $f$ is a permutation polynomial (PP) of ${\Bbb F}_{q^2}$ have been determined in the following…

We prove that the polynomial invariants of a permutation group are Cohen-Macaulay for any choice of coefficient field if and only if the group is generated by transpositions, double transpositions, and 3-cycles. This unites and generalizes…

Most results on the value sets $V_f$ of polynomials $f \in \mathbb{F}_q[x]$ relate the cardinality $|V_f|$ to the degree of $f$. In particular, the structure of the spectrum of the class of polynomials of a fixed degree $d$ is rather well…

An infinite permutation is a linear order on the set N. We study the properties of infinite permutations generated by fixed points of some uniform binary morphisms, and find the formula for their complexity.

The aim of this paper is to give a new approach to modified $q$-Bernstein polynomials for functions of several variables. By using these polynomials, the recurrence formulas and some new interesting identities related to the second Stirling…

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…

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…

Let $r$ be a positive integer, $h(X)\in\Bbb F_{q^2}[X]$, and $\mu_{q+1}$ be the subgroup of order $q+1$ of $\Bbb F_{q^2}^*$. It is well known that $X^rh(X^{q-1})$ permutes $\Bbb F_{q^2}$ if and only if $\text{gcd}(r,q-1)=1$ and…

We show that univariate trinomials $x^n + ax^s + b \in \mathbb{F}_q[x]$ can have at most $\delta \Big\lfloor \frac{1}{2} +\sqrt{\frac{q-1}{\delta}} \Big\rfloor$ distinct roots in $\mathbb{F}_q$, where $\delta = \gcd(n, s, q - 1)$. We also…

Given a finite field $\F_q$ and $n\in \N^*$, one could try to compute all polynomial endomorphisms $\F_q^n\lp \F_q^n$ up to a certain degree with a specific property. We consider the case $n=3$. If the degree is low (like 2,3, or 4) and the…

Recently, there has been a lot of work on constructions of permutation polynomials of the form $(x^{2^m}+x+\delta)^{s}+x$ over the finite field $\F_{2^{2m}}$, especially in the case when $s$ is of the form $s=i(2^m-1)+1$ (Niho exponent). In…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field of $q$ elements, and let $k\mid q-1$ be a positive integer. Let $f(x)=ax^2+bx+c$ be a quadratic polynomial in $\mathbb{F}_q[x]$ with $b^2-4ac\ne0$. In this paper, we show that if…
