Let $F$ be a field of prime characteristic $p$ and let $q$ be a power of $p$. We assume that $F$ contains the finite field of order $q$. A $q$-polynomial $L$ over $F$ is an element of the polynomial ring $F[x]$ with the property that those…
Let $\ell$ be an odd prime, $q$ an odd prime power such that $q \not\equiv 0 \pmod \ell$, and $m$ the order of $q$ in $\F_\ell^\times$. We propose an explicit $L$-polynomial of hyperelliptic function field $K:=\F_q(T,…
We compute new polynomials with Galois group $M_{11}$ over $\mathbb{Q}(t)$. These polynomials stem from various families of covers of $\mathbb{P}^1\mathbb{C}$ ramified over at least 4 points. Each of these families has features that make a…
Let $p$ be an odd prime and $\F_q$ be the finite field with $q=p^n$ elements. A planar function $f:\F_q\rightarrow\F_q$ is called homogenous if $f(\lambda x)=\lambda^df(x)$ for all $\lambda\in\F_p$ and $x\in\F_q$, where $d$ is some fixed…
We study normality of a family of meromorphic functions, whose differential polynomials satisfy a certain condition, which significantly improves and generalizes some recent results of Chen (Filomat, 31(14) 2017, 4665-4671). Moreover, we…
We use $q$-binomial theorem to prove three new polynomial identities involving $q$-trinomial coefficients. We then use summation formulas for the $q$-trinomial coefficients to convert our identities into another set of three polynomial…
In this paper, we revisit the theory of perfect unary forms over real quadratic fields. Specifically, we deduce an infinite family of real quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ when $d=2$ or $3$ mod $4$, such that there are three classes…
Let $\mathbb{A}=\mathbb{F}_{q}[T]$ be the polynomial ring over finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$, and $\mathbb{A}_{+}$ be the set of monic polynomials in $\mathbb{A}$. In this paper, we show that a large class of arithmetic functions in…
The construction of permutation trinomials over finite fields attracts people's interest recently due to their simple form and some additional properties. Motivated by some results on the construction of permutation trinomials with Niho…
Given a quintic number field $K/\mathbb{Q}$, we study the set of irreducible trinomials, polynomials of the form $x^{5} + ax + b$, that have a root in $K$. We show that there is a genus four curve $C_{K}$ whose rational points are in…
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 $k \geq 2$, $q$ be an odd prime power, and $F \in \mathbb{F}_q[x_1, \ldots, x_k]$ be a polynomial. An $F$-Diophantine set over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ is a set $A \subset \mathbb{F}_q^*$ such that $F(a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_k)$ is a…
Let $F=\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ be the field of rational functions with $\mathbb{F}_q$-coefficients, and $A=\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ be the subring of polynomials. Let $D$ be a division quaternion algebra over $F$ which is split at $1/T$. Given an…
We classify the parabolic unitals in regular nearfield planes of odd order $q^2$ whose linear collineation group has the maximal size of $q^3-q$. We also establish a number of more general results concerning parabolic unitals in regular…
Let $q=2^m.$ In a recent paper \cite{Zhang3}, Zhang and Zheng investigated several classes of permutation pentanomials of the form $\epsilon_0x^{d_0}+L(\epsilon_{1}x^{d_1}+\epsilon_{2}x^{d_2})$ over ${\mathbb F}_{q^3}~(d_0=1,2,4)$ from some…
We give new characterizations of the algebra $\mathscr{L}_n(\mathbb{F}_{q^n})$ formed by all linearized polynomials over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ after briefly surveying some known ones. One isomorphism we construct is between…
Though it is well known that the roots of any affine polynomial over a finite field can be computed by a system of linear equations by using a normal base of the field, such solving approach appears to be difficult to apply when the field…
It is well known that there exists a significant equivalence between the vector space $\mathbb{F}_{q}^n$ and the finite fields $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$, and many scholars often view them as the same in most contexts. However, the precise…
Let $q$ be a prime power. We estimate the number of tuples of degree bounded monic polynomials $(Q_1,\ldots,Q_v) \in (\mathbb{F}_q[z])^v$ that satisfy given pairwise coprimality conditions. We show how this generalises from monic…
In a recent paper, it is shown that functions of the form $L_1(x^3)+L_2(x^9)$, where $L_1$ and $L_2$ are linear, are a good source for construction of new infinite families of APN functions. In the present work we study necessary and…
