In this paper we present an iterative construction of irreducible polynomials over finite fields based upon repeated applications of transforms induced by endomorphisms of odd prime degree of ordinary elliptic curves.
Planar functions are mappings from a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ to itself with an extremal differential property. Such functions give rise to finite projective planes and other combinatorial objects. There is a subtle difference between…
Connection of flat polynomials with some spectral questions in ergodic theory is discussed. A necessary condition for a sequence of polynomials of the type $\frac{1}{\sqrt{N}} \big(1 +\sum_{j=1}^{N-1} z^{n_j}\big)$ to be flat in almost…
Finite dimensional subspaces spanned by exponential functions in the space of square integrable functions on a finite interval of the real line are considered. Their limiting positions are studied and described in terms of expo-polynomials.
The classical problem of whether $m$th-powers with or without zero in a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ form a difference set has been extensively studied, and is related to many topics, such as flag transitive finite projective planes. In this…
We investigate the interrelationships of three notions of primary units in the local cyclotomic field of $p$-th roots of~1($p$ being an odd prime number), especially with reference to global units.
We present a novel idea to compute square roots over finite fields, without being given any quadratic nonresidue, and without assuming any unproven hypothesis. The algorithm is deterministic and the proof is elementary. In some cases, the…
When supersymmetry is spontaneously broken it will be generically non-linearly realized. A method to describe the non-linear realization of supersymmetry is with constrained superfields. We discuss the basic features of this description and…
We introduce a finite element construction for use on the class of convex, planar polygons and show it obtains a quadratic error convergence estimate. On a convex n-gon satisfying simple geometric criteria, our construction produces 2n…
We give an elementary argument for the well known fact that the endomorphism algebra $End_Q(A)$ of a simple complex abelian surface $A$ can neither be an imaginary quadratic field nor a definite quaternion algebra. Another consequence of…
We construct the first examples of finitely presented groups with quadratic Dehn function containing a finitely generated infinite torsion subgroup. These examples are "optimal" in the sense that the Dehn function of any such finitely…
We consider systems of ordinary differential equations with quadratic homogeneous right hand side. We give a new simple proof of a result already obtained in [8,10] which gives the necessary conditions for the existence of polynomial first…
Spinor polynomials are polynomials with coefficients in the even sub-algebra of conformal geometric algebra whose norm polynomial is real. They describe rational conformal motions. Factorizations of spinor polynomial corresponds to the…
In addition to rather complicated general methods it is interesting and valuable to develop fast efficient methods for calculating generators of power integral bases in special types of number fields. We consider sextic fields containing a…
Some aspects of analysis involving fields with absolute value functions are discussed, which includes the real or complex numbers with their standard absolute values, as well as ultrametric situations like the p-adic numbers.
This is the second in a series of three papers dealing with sums of squares and hypoellipticity in the infinitely degenerate regime. We give sharp conditions on the entries of a positive semidefinite NxN matrix function F on n-dimensional…
Let E be an elliptic curve over the function field Q(t). Suppose that for every number field L\not=Q and every element tau\in L such that the specialization E_tau is smooth, the curve E_tau has a non-trivial torsion point over L. We show…
We give examples of $L^{1}$-functions that are essentially unbounded on every nonempty open subset of their domains of definition. We obtain such functions as limits of weighted sums of functions with the unboundedly increasing number of…
Under mild conditions on $n,p$, we give a lower bound on the number of $n$-variable balanced symmetric polynomials over finite fields $GF(p)$, where $p$ is a prime number. The existence of nonlinear balanced symmetric polynomials is an…
We review exceptional field theories as the duality-covariant reformulation of maximal supergravity theories in ten and eleven dimensions, that make the underlying exceptional symmetries explicit. Beyond their structural role in unifying…
