Abstract: We study the Erd"os/Falconer distance problem in vector spaces over finite fields. Let BbbFq be a finite field with q elements and take EsubsetBbbFqd, dge2. We develop a Fourier analytic machinery, analogous to that developed by Mattila in the continuous case, for the study of distance sets in BbbFqd to provide estimates for minimum cardinality of the distance set Delta(E) in terms of the cardinality of E. Kloosterman sums play an important role in the proof.
