On global P-forms

Abstract: Let

B b b F_{q}

be a finite field with

e x t c h a r, B b b F_{q} = p

and

n > 0

an integer with

e x t g c d (n, l o g_{p} q) = 1

. Let

()^{*} : B b b F_{q} ({t x}_{0}, d o t s, {t x}_{n - 1}) o B b b F_{q} ({t x}_{0}, d o t s, {t x}_{n - 1})

be the

B b b F_{q}

-monomorphism defined by

{t x}_{i}^{*} = {t x}_{i + 1}

for

0 l e i < n - 1

and

{t x}_{n - 1}^{*} = {t x}_{0}^{q}

. For

f, g i n B b b F_{q} ({t x}_{0}, d o t s, {t x}_{n - 1}) s e t m i n u s B b b F_{q}

, define

f c i r c g = f (g, g^{*}, d o t s, g^{(n - 1) *})

. Then

(B b b F_{q} ({t x}_{0}, d o t s, {t x}_{n - 1}) s e t m i n u s B b b F_{q},, c i r c)

is a monoid whose invertible elements are called global

m a t h c a l P

-forms. Global

m a t h c a l P

-forms were first introduced by H. Dobbertin in 2001 with

q = 2

to study certain type of permutation polynomials of

B b b F_{2^{m}}

with

e x t g c d (m, n) = 1

; global

m a t h c a l P

-forms with

q = p

for an arbitrary prime

p

were considered by W. More in 2005. In this paper, we discuss some fundamental questions about global

m a t h c a l P

-forms, some of which are answered and others remain open.
