2 Outline 1. Introduction 2. Desirable Triples 3. Families of Desirable Triples 4. An update of the table of Desirable Triples (n, e; q) with q = 3 and e 6
3 Introduction The Polynomial g n,q q = p k, n 0. There exists a unique polynomial g n,q F p [x] such that (x + a) n = g n,q (x q x) a F q Question : When is g n,q a permutation polynomial(pp) of F q e? If g n,q is a PP, we call triple (n, e; q) desirable.
4 Introduction Recurrence g 0,q =... = g q 2,q = 0, g q 1,q = 1, g n,q = xg n q,q + g n q+1,q, n q Above recurrence relation can be used to define g n,q for n < 0 : g n,q = 1 x (g n+q,q g n+1,q ). For n < 0, there exists a g n,q F p [x, x 1 ] such that (x + a) n = g n,q (x q x) a F q Recurrence relation holds for all n Z.
5 Introduction g n,q and Reversed Dickson Polynomial The nth Reversed Dickson Polynomial D n (1, x) Z[x] is defined by D n (1, x(1 x)) = x n + (1 x) n When q = 2, g n,2 (x(1 x)) = x n + (1 x) n F 2 [x] g n,2 = D n (1, x) F 2 [x].
6 Desirable Triples Equivalence 1. g pn,q = g p n,q.
7 Desirable Triples Equivalence 1. g pn,q = g p n,q. 2. If n 1, n 2 > 0 are integers such that n 1 n 2 (mod q pe - 1 ), then g n1,q g n2,q (mod x qe x).
8 Desirable Triples Equivalence 1. g pn,q = g p n,q. 2. If n 1, n 2 > 0 are integers such that n 1 n 2 (mod q pe - 1 ), then g n1,q g n2,q (mod x qe x). 3. If m, n > 0 belong to the same p-cyclotomic coset modulo q pe - 1, we say that two triples (m, e; q) and (n, e; q) are equivalent and write (m, e; q) (n, e; q). If (m, e; q) (n, e; q), g m,q is a PP if and only if g n,q is a PP.
9 Desirable Triples Some Necessary Conditions If (n, e; 2) is desirable, gcd(n, 2 2e 1) = 3. If (n, e; q) is desirable, gcd(n, q 1) = 1. If (n, e; q) is desirable where q > 2 or e > 1, the p-cyclotomic coset of n modulo q pe 1 has cardinality pek(q = p k ).
10 Generating function A Quick Reminder : g 0,q =... = g q 2,q = 0, g q 1,q = 1, g n,q = xg n q,q + g n q+1,q, n q g n,q t n = n 0 t q 1 1 t q 1 xt q
11 Theorem g n,q t n (xt) q 1 1 (xt) q 1 (xt) q + (1 x q 1 ) tq 1 1 t q 1 (mod x q x) n 0 x 1 : if n > 0, n 0 (mod q 1) (mod x q x) g n,q a n x n + 0 : otherwise (mod x q x) where a n t n t q 1 = 1 t q 1 t q n 0
12 Proof of the Theorem g n,q t n = n 0 t q 1 1 t q 1 xt q and t q 1 1 t q 1 xt q t q 1 1 t q 1 xt q (xt) q 1 1 (xt) q 1 (xt) q + (1 x q 1 ) tq 1 1 t q 1 (mod x q 1 1) (xt) q 1 1 (xt) q 1 (xt) q + (1 x q 1 ) tq 1 1 t q 1 (mod x)
13 The case e = 1 (n, 1; q) is desirable if and only if gcd(n, q 1) = 1 and a n 0. Proof : By the Theorem, we have x q 1 1 : if n > 0, n 0 (mod q 1) (mod x q x) g n,q a n x n + 0 : otherwise (mod x q x) ( ) Since g n,q is PP, by a previous fact, gcd(n, q 1) = 1. So g n,q (x) a n x n (mod x q x) which implies a n 0. ( ) gcd(n, q 1) = 1 and a n 0 g n,q (x) a n x n (mod x q x) g n,q is PP. Open question : Determine n s.t. a n 0.
14 Some Desirable Triples [Hou 2011] 1. (q pe 2, e; q) when q > 2.
15 Some Desirable Triples [Hou 2011] 1. (q pe 2, e; q) when q > When q = 3 k, (q 2e q e 1, e; q) is desirable.
16 Some Desirable Triples [Hou 2011] 1. (q pe 2, e; q) when q > When q = 3 k, (q 2e q e 1, e; q) is desirable. 3. (3 2e e 2, e; 3) is desirable.
17 A useful Lemma - (A) Let n = α 0 q α t q t base q weight of n,, 0 α i q 1 and w q (n) be the 0 : if w q(n) < q 1 g n,q = 1 : if w q(n) = q 1 α 0 x q0 + (α 0 + α 1 )x q (α α t 1 )x qt 1 + δ : if w q(n) = q where δ = { 1 : if q = 2 0 : if q > 2
18 Proposition Let n = α 0 q α t q t, 0 α i q 1, with w q (n) = q. Then (n, e; q) is desirable if and only if gcd(α 0 + (α 0 + α 1 )x (α α t 1 )x t 1, x e 1) = 1. We are going to write n = α(p 0e + p 1e p (p 1)e ) + β, where α, β Z and impose conditions on α and β so that (n, e; p) is desirable.
19 Another Useful Lemma - (B) Let n = α(p 0e + p 1e p (p 1)e ) + β, for x F p e, where α, β Z. Then g n,p (x) = { gαp+β,p (x) : if Tr Fp e /F p (x) = 0 x α g β,p (x) : if Tr Fp e /F p (x) 0
20 Proposition In the previous Lemma, (n, e; p) is desirable if the following two conditions are satisfied. (i) Both g αp+β,p + δ and x α g β,p are F p - linear on F p e and are 1 1 on Tr 1 F p e /F p (0) = {x F p e : Tr Fp e /F p (x) = 0}, (ii) g β,p (1) eδ
21 A Desirable Family - 1 [Hou 2011] Let n = 8( e + 3 2e ) + 7. (α = 8, β = 7) g n,3 = { g8 3+7,3 (x) = g 31,3 (x) = x 30 x 31 x 32 : if Tr F3 e /F 3 (x) = 0 x 8 g 7,3 (x) = x 9 : if Tr F3 e /F 3 (x) 0 g n,3 is a PP of F 3 e if and only if g 31,3 is 1-1 on Tr 1 F 3 e /F 3 (0). g 31,3 (x 3 x) = x + x 3 + x 33. g 31,3 is 1-1 on Tr 1 F 3 e /F 3 (0) if and only if gcd(1 + x + x 3, x e 1) = x 1. (n, e; 3) is desirable if and only if gcd(1 + x + x 3, x e 1) = x 1.
22 A Desirable Family - 2 Let n = 26( e + 3 2e ) + 7. (α = 26, β = 7) g n,3 = g ,3 (x) = g 85,3 (x) = x 30 x 31 x 32 x 33 : if Tr F3 e /F 3 (x) = 0 x 26 g 7,3 (x) = x 27 : if Tr F3 e /F 3 (x) 0 g n,3 is a PP of F 3 e if and only if g 85,3 is 1-1 on Tr 1 F 3 e /F 3 (0). g 85,3 (x 3 x) = x 30 + x 31 + x 34. g 85,3 is 1-1 on Tr 1 F 3 e /F 3 (0) if and only if gcd(1 + x + x 4, x e 1) = x 1. (n, e; 3) is desirable if and only if gcd(1 + x + x 4, x e 1) = x 1.
23 A Desirable Family - 3 Let n = 163( e + 3 2e ) 162. (α = 163, β = 162) g n,3 = g ,3 (x) = g 327,3 (x) = x 31 + x 32 + x 33 x 34 : if Tr F3 e /F 3 (x) = 0 x 163 g 162,3 (x) = x : if Tr F3 e /F 3 (x) 0 g n,3 is a PP of F 3 e if and only if g 327,3 is 1-1 on Tr 1 F 3 e /F 3 (0). g 327,3 (x 3 x) = x 31 + x 34 + x 35. g 327,3 is 1-1 on Tr 1 F 3 e /F 3 (0) if and only if gcd(x + x 4 + x 5, x e 1) = x 1. (n, e; 3) is desirable if and only if gcd(x + x 4 + x 5, x e 1) = x 1.
24 A Desirable Family - 4 [Hou 2011] Let n = 4( e + 3 2e ) 7. (α = 4, β = 7) Then (n, e; 3) is desirable. g n,3 = x + x 1 x 3 { g4 3 7,3 (x) = g 5,3 (x) = x : if Tr F3 e /F 3 (x) = 0 x 4 g 7,3 (x) = x + x 1 x 3 : if Tr F3 e /F 3 (x) 0 is 1-1 on F 3 e \Tr 1 F 3 e /F 3 (0).
