Warning's second theorem with restricted variables

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We present a restricted variable generalization of Warning's Second Theorem (a result giving a lower bound on the number of solutions of a low degree polynomial system over a finite field, assuming one solution exists). This is analogous to Brink's restricted variable generalization of Chevalley's Theorem (a result giving conditions for a low degree polynomial system not to have exactly one solution). Just as Warning's Second Theorem implies Chevalley's Theorem, our result implies Brink's Theorem. We include several combinatorial applications, enough to show that we have a general tool for obtaining quantitative refinements of combinatorial existence theorems.
