A note on primitive 1-normal elements over finite fields

Abstract: Let

q

be a prime power of a prime

p

,

n

a positive integer and

m a t h b b F_{q^{n}}

the finite field with

q^{n}

elements. The

k -

normal elements over finite fields were introduced and characterized by Huczynska et al (2013). Under the condition that

n

is not divisible by

p

, they obtained an existence result on primitive

1 -

normal elements of

m a t h b b F_{q^{n}}

over

m a t h b b F_{q}

for

q > 2

. In this note, we extend their result to the excluded case

q = 2

.
