Permutation polynomials (PPs) of the form $(x^{q} -x + c)^{\frac{q^2 -1}{3}+1} +x$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ were presented by Li, Helleseth and Tang [Finite Fields Appl. 22 (2013) 16--23]. More recently, we have constructed PPs of the form…

An orthomorphism over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ is a permutation $\theta:\mathbb{F}_q\mapsto\mathbb{F}_q$ such that the map $x\mapsto\theta(x)-x$ is also a permutation of $\mathbb{F}_q$. The degree of an orthomorphism of $\mathbb{F}_q$,…
