This paper studies the absolute irreducibility and the genera of a corresponding class of algebraic function fields. Results on divisors of some sequences of integers have been given. The notion of strongly linear independence of rational functions has been given to prove the main results of the paper concerning the existence of an element of a finite field satisfying a given condition. The paper concludes with some applications to BCH codes, finite field arithmetic and ordered orthogonal arrays. The author also completely solves a problem on which partial results were obtained by Helleseth, Kløve and Levenshtein.
