We find the minimal dimension for a truncated polynomial algebra over an arbitrary field for which there exists a "non-thin" subalgebra. Moreover, we discuss examples of subalgebras, and count them in low dimensions.

We consider symmetric (under the action of products of finite symmetric groups) real algebraic varieties and semi-algebraic sets, as well as symmetric complex varieties in affine and projective spaces, defined by polynomials of degrees…

A linearized function field $F$ can be viewed as a Galois extension of a rational function field $K(x)$. For a totally ramified place $Q$ of degree one in $F/K(x)$, we give a unified description of the set $G(Q)$ of gaps at $Q$. As a…

Let $q=p^k$ be a prime power, let $n\geq2$ be an integer and let $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ be a finite field. It is shown that the set of primitive normal elements is a Salem set. Furthermore, it is proved that this set is strongly equidistributed…

We investigate some Galois groups of linearized polynomials over fields such as $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$. The space of roots of such a polynomial is a module for its Galois group. We present a realization of the symmetric powers of this module, as…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ denote the ring of polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$, the finite field of $q$ elements. Suppose the characteristic of $\mathbb{F}_q$ is not $2$ or $3$. In this paper, we prove an $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$-analogue of results…

A symmetric function of $N$ variables can be given in terms of symmetric polynomials of these variables. We determine those symmetric polynomials in which the dual differential operators take the neatest form when expressed in terms of our…

The problem of finding a nontrivial factor of a polynomial f(x) over a finite field F_q has many known efficient, but randomized, algorithms. The deterministic complexity of this problem is a famous open question even assuming the…

The minimum number of distinct eigenvalues, taken over all real symmetric matrices compatible with a given graph $G$, is denoted by $q(G)$. Using other parameters related to $G$, bounds for $q(G)$ are proven and then applied to deduce…
