It is well known that a polynomial $\phi(X)\in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ of given degree $d$ factors into at most $d$ factors in $\mathbb{F}_p$ for any prime $p$. We prove in this paper the existence of infinitely many primes $q$ so that the given…

The rank of a scattered $\mathbb{F}_q$-linear set of $\mathrm{PG}(r-1,q^n)$, $rn$ even, is at most $rn/2$ as it was proved by Blokhuis and Lavrauw. Existence results and explicit constructions were given for infinitely many values of $r$,…

The aim of this survey is to outline the state of the art in research on a class of linearized polynomials with coefficients over finite fields, known as scattered polynomials. These have been studied in several contexts, such as in [A.…

We show that subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$ of large enough Hausdorff and Fourier dimension contain polynomial patterns of the form \begin{align*} ( x ,\, x + A_1 y ,\, \dots,\, x + A_{k-1} y ,\, x + A_k y + Q(y) e_n ), \quad x \in…

Lunardon and Polverino construct a translation plane starting from a scattered linear set of pseudoregulus type in $\mathrm{PG}(1,q^t)$. In this paper a similar construction of a translation plane $\mathcal A_f$ obtained from any scattered…

We provide sufficient and necessary conditions for the coefficients of a $q$-polynomial $f$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ which ensure that the number of distinct roots of $f$ in $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ equals the degree of $f$. We say that these…

Some families of linear permutation polynomials of $\mathbb{F}_{q^{ms}}$ with coefficients in $\mathbb{F}_{q^{m}}$ are explicitly described (via conditions on their coefficients) as isomorphic images of classical subgroups of the general…

Linearized polynomials appear in many different contexts, such as rank metric codes, cryptography and linear sets, and the main issue regards the characterization of the number of roots from their coefficients. Results of this type have…

There are several questions one may ask about polynomials $q_m(x)=q_m(x;t)=\sum_{n=0}^mt^mp_n(x)$ attached to a family of orthogonal polynomials $\{p_n(x)\}_{n\ge0}$. In this note we draw attention to the naturalness of this partial-sum…

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…

Let $\{q_n^{(\alpha,\beta,m)}(x)\}_{n\ge 0}$ be the orthonormal polynomials respect to the Sobolev-type inner product \begin{equation*} \langle f,g\rangle_{\alpha,\beta,m}=\sum_{k=0}^m \int_{-1}^{1}f^{(k)}(x)g^{(k)}(x)\,…

We introduce a family of linear sets of $\mathrm{PG}(1,q^{2n})$ arising from maximum scattered linear sets of pseudoregulus type of $\mathrm{PG}(3,q^{n})$. For $n=3,4$ and for certain values of the parameters we show that these linear sets…

Let $q$ be a power of $2$ and let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements. For a positive integer $n$, the polynomial $X^n-1\in\mathbb{F}_q[X]$ is called $3$-sparse over $\mathbb{F}_q$ if every monic irreducible factor of…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ be the polynomial ring over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of $q$ elements. A polynomial in $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ is called $m$-smooth (or $m$-friable) if all its irreducible factors are of degree at most $m$. In this…

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…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q$ elements, $f \in \mathbb{F}_q[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ a polynomial in $n$ variables and let us denote by $N(f)$ the number of roots of $f$ in $\mathbb{F}_q^n$. %Many authors, such as Wei Cao and Kung…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ denote the ring of polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$, the finite field of $q$ elements. We prove an estimate for fractional parts of polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ satisfying a certain divisibility condition…

A cyclotomic polynomial \Phi_n(x) is said to be ternary if n=pqr with p,q and r distinct odd primes. Ternary cyclotomic polynomials are the simplest ones for which the behaviour of the coefficients is not completely understood. Here we…

We determine all permutation polynomials among several families of polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_{q^3}$ for arbitrary prime powers $q$. We obtain some new families of permutation polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_{q^3}$ with simple coefficients…
