Permutation and local permutation polynomial of maximum degree

Let $F_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements and $F_q[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$ the ring of polynomials in $n$ variables over $F_q$. In this paper we consider permutation polynomials and local permutation polynomials over $F_q[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$, which define interesting generalizations of permutations over finite fields. We are able to construct permutation polynomials in $F_q[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$ of maximum degree $n(q-1)-1$ and local permutation polynomials in $F_q[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$ of maximum degree $n(q-2)$ when $q>3$, extending previous results.

Local permutation polynomials and the action of e-Klenian groups

Permutation polynomials of finite fields have many applications in Coding Theory, Cryptography and Combinatorics. In the first part of this paper we present a new family of local permutation polynomials based on a class of symmetric subgroups without fixed points, the so called e-Klenian groups. In the second part we use the fact that bivariate local permutation polynomials define Latin Squares, to discuss several constructions of Mutually Orthogonal Latin Squares (MOLS) and, in particular, we provide a new family of MOLS on size a prime power.

On some classes of irreducible polynomials

The aim of the paper is to produce new families of irreducible polynomials, generalizing previous results in the area. One example of our general result is that for a near-separated polynomial, i.e., polynomials of the form $F(x,y)=f_1(x)f_2(y)-f_2(x)f_1(y)$, then $F(x,y)+r$ is always irreducible for any constant $r$ different from zero. We also provide the biggest known family of HIP polynomials in several variables. These are polynomials $p(x_1,\ldots,x_n) \in K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ over a zero characteristic field $K$ such that $p(h_1(x_1),\ldots,h_n(x_n))$ is irreducible over $K$ for every $n$-tuple $h_1(x_1),\ldots,h_n(x_n)$ of non constant one variable polynomials over $K$. The results can also be applied to fields of positive characteristic, with some modifications.

Weighted greatest common divisors and weighted heights

We introduce the weighted greatest common divisor of a tuple of integers and explore some of it basic properties. Furthermore, for a set of heights $\mathfrak w=(q_0, \ldots , q_n)$, we use the concept of the weighted greatest common divisor to define a height $\mathfrak{h} (\mathfrak p)$ on weighted projective spaces $\mathbb{WP}_{\mathfrak w}^n (k)$. We prove some of the basic properties of this weighted height, including an analogue of the Northcott's theorem for heights on projective spaces.

The MMO problem

We consider a two polynomials analogue of the polynomial interpolation problem. Namely, we consider the Mixing Modular Operations (MMO) problem of recovering two polynomials $f\in \Z_p[x]$ and $g\in \Z_q[x]$ of known degree, where $p$ and $q$ are two (un)known positive integers, from the values of $f(t)\bmod p + g(t)\bmod q$ at polynomially many points $t \in \Z$. We show that if $p$ and $q$ are known, the MMO problem is equivalent to computing a close vector in a lattice with respect to the infinity norm. We also implemented in the SAGE system a heuristic polynomial-time algorithm. If $p$ and $q$ are kept secret, we do not know how to solve this problem. This problem is motivated by several potential cryptographic applications.

Computing the fixing group of a rational function

Let G=Aut_K (K(x)) be the Galois group of the transcendental degree one pure field extension K(x)/K. In this paper we describe polynomial time algorithms for computing the field Fix(H) fixed by a subgroup H < G and for computing the fixing group G_f of a rational function f in K(x).

Unirational fields of transcendence degree one and functional decomposition

In this paper we present an algorithm to compute all unirational fields of transcendence degree one containing a given finite set of multivariate rational functions. In particular, we provide an algorithm to decompose a multivariate rational function f of the form f=g(h), where g is a univariate rational function and h a multivariate one.

On decomposition of tame polynomials and rational functions

In this paper we present algorithmic considerations and theoretical results about the relation between the orders of certain groups associated to the components of a polynomial and the order of the group that corresponds to the polynomial, proving it for arbitrary tame polynomials, and considering the case of rational functions.

Computation of unirational fields

One of the main contributions which Volker Weispfenning made to mathematics is related to Groebner bases theory. In this paper we present an algorithm for computing all algebraic intermediate subfields in a separably generated unirational field extension (which in particular includes the zero characteristic case). One of the main tools is Groebner bases theory. Our algorithm also requires computing primitive elements and factoring over algebraic extensions. Moreover, the method can be extended to finitely generated K-algebras.

Building counterexamples to generalizations for rational functions of Ritt's decomposition theorem

The classical Ritt's Theorems state several properties of univariate polynomial decomposition. In this paper we present new counterexamples to Ritt's first theorem, which states the equality of length of decomposition chains of a polynomial, in the case of rational functions. Namely, we provide an explicit example of a rational function with coefficients in Q and two decompositions of different length. Another aspect is the use of some techniques that could allow for other counterexamples, namely, relating groups and decompositions and using the fact that the alternating group A_4 has two subgroup chains of different lengths; and we provide more information about the generalizations of another property of polynomial decomposition: the stability of the base field. We also present an algorithm for computing the fixing group of a rational function providing the complexity over Q.

Prediciendo el generador cuadratico (in Spanish)

Let p be a prime and a, c be integers such that a<>0 mod p. The quadratic generator is a sequence (u_n) of pseudorandom numbers defined by u_{n+1}=a*(u_n)^2+c mod p. In this article we probe that if we know sufficiently many of the most significant bits of two consecutive values u_n, u_{n+1}, then we can compute the seed u_0 except for a small number of exceptional values. ----- Sean p un primo, a y c enteros tales que a<>0 mod p. El generador cuadratico es una sucesion (u_n) de numeros pseudoaleatorios definidos por la relacion u_{n+1}=a*(u_n)^2+c mod p. En este trabajo demostramos que si conocemos un numero suficientemente grande de los bits mas significativos para dos valores consecutivos u_n, u_{n+1}, entonces podemos descubrir en tiempo polinomial la semilla u_0, excepto para un conjunto pequeno de valores excepcionales.

On Ritt's decomposition Theorem in the case of finite fields

A classical theorem by Ritt states that all the complete decomposition chains of a univariate polynomial satisfying a certain tameness condition have the same length. In this paper we present our conclusions about the generalization of these theorem in the case of finite coefficient fields when the tameness condition is dropped.
