Some classes of monomial complete permutation polynomials over finite fields of characteristic two (Q402557): Difference between revisions

A polynomial \(f(x)\in \mathbb F_q[x]\) is a complete permutation polynomial if both \(f(x)\) and \(f(x)+x\) are permutations. These arise in the study of orthogonal Latin squares. The authors consider the case \(q=2^n\) and \(f(x)=ax^d\). They construct four new classes of complete permutation monomials. One class is an extension of a result of \textit{Z. Tu}, \textit{X. Zeng} and \textit{L. Hu} [Finite Fields Appl. 25, 182--193 (2014; Zbl 1284.05012)]. The other three have the form: \[ n=rk\qquad d=1+(2^{rk}-1)/(2^k-1)\qquad (k,r)=1, \] for \(r=4,6\) and \(10\). The coefficient \(a\) is chosen so that an associated polynomial is a Dickson polynomial.
