Permutation polynomials over finite fields constitute an active research area and have applications in many areas of science and engineering. In this paper, two conjectures on permutation polynomials proposed recently by Wu and Li [19] are…

Modulo a prime number, we define semi-primitive roots as the square of primitive roots. We present a method for calculating primitive roots from quadratic residues, including semi-primitive roots. We then present progressions that generate…

We consider the representation of primes as a sum of a prime and twice a triangular number. We prove that a subset of the primes having density 1 is expressible in this form. We conjecture that every odd prime number is expressible as a sum…

The $girth$ of a primitive Boolean matrix is defined to be the $girth$ of its associated digraph. In this paper, among all primitive Boolean matrices of order $n$, the primitive exponents of those of girth $g$ are considered. For the…

Permutation polynomials over finite fields are an interesting subject due to their important applications in the areas of mathematics and engineering. In this paper we investigate the trinomial $f(x)=x^{(p-1)q+1}+x^{pq}-x^{q+(p-1)}$ over…

We present some new ideas on important problems related to primes. The topics of our discussion are: simple formulae for primes, twin primes, Sophie Germain primes, prime tuples less than or equal to a predefined number, and their…

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…

1. There is no existing any quadratic interval $\eta_{n}:=(n^{2},(n+1)^{2}],$ which contains less than 2 prime numbers. The number of prime numbers within $\eta_{n}$ goes averagely linear with n to infinity. 2. The exact law of the number…

We confirm a conjecture of Cun Sheng Ding~\cite{Ding-Discrete} claiming that the punctured value-sets of a list of eleven trinomials over odd-degree extensions of the binary field give rise to difference sets with Singer parameters. In the…

The Goormaghtigh conjecture states that the only two numbers which have two non-trivial representations as repunits are $31$ and $8191$. We call such a prime number a {\it Goormaghtigh prime}. We show that there are no other Goormaghtigh…

We prove new upper and lower bounds on transversal numbers of several classes of simplicial complexes. Specifically, we establish an upper bound on the transversal numbers of pure simplicial complexes in terms of the number of vertices and…

A (positive definite and integral) quadratic form $f$ is said to be $\textit{universal}$ if it represents all positive integers, and is said to be $\textit{primitively universal}$ if it represents all positive integers primitively. We also…

Reductive W-algebras which are generated by bosonic fields of spin-1, a single spin-2 field and fermionic fields of spin-3/2 are classified. Three new cases are found: a `symplectic' family of superconformal algebras which are extended by…

For each prime p other than 3, and each power q=p^k, we present two large classes of permutation polynomials over F_{q^2} of the form X^r B(X^{q-1}) which have at most five terms, where B(X) is a polynomial with coefficients in {1,-1}. The…

Mills proved that there exists a real constant $A>1$ such that for all $n\in \mathbb{N}$ the values $\lfloor A^{3^n}\rfloor$ are prime numbers. No explicit value of $A$ is known, but assuming the Riemann hypothesis one can choose $A=…

Let $\sigma(n)$ to be the sum of the positive divisors of $n$. A number is non-deficient if $\sigma(n) \geq 2n$. We establish new lower bounds for the number of distinct prime factors of an odd non-deficient number in terms of its second…

A method for generating irreducible polynomials of degree n over the finite field GF(2) is proposed. The irreducible polynomials are found by solving a system of equations that brings the information on the internal properties of the…

While the twin prime conjecture is still famously open, it holds true in the setting of finite fields: There are infinitely many pairs of monic irreducible polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$ that differ by a fixed constant, for each $q \geq…

Let $f$ be a primitive positive definite integral binary quadratic form of discriminant $-D$ and let $\pi_f(x)$ be the number of primes up to $x$ which are represented by $f$. We prove several types of upper bounds for $\pi_f(x)$ within a…

The discriminant of a polynomial of the form $\pm x^n \pm x^m \pm 1$ has the form $n^n \pm m^m(n-m)^{n-m}$ when $n,m$ are relatively prime. We investigate when these discriminants have prime power divisors. We explain several symmetries…
