Primitive elements with prescribed traces

Andrew R. Booker, Stephen D. Cohen, Nicol Leong +1

Given a prime power $q$ and a positive integer $n$ , let $F_{q^{n}}$ denote the finite field with $q^{n}$ elements. Also let $a, b$ be arbitrary members of the ground field $\…

Four consecutive primitive elements in a finite field

Tamiru Jarso, Tim Trudgian

For $q$ an odd prime power, we prove that there are always four consecutive primitive elements in the finite field $F_{q}$ when $q > 2401$ .

The trace of primitive and $2$ -primitive elements in finite fields, revisited

Stephen D. Cohen, Giorgos Kapetanakis

By definition primitive and $2$ -primitive elements of a finite field extension $F_{q^{n}}$ have order $q^{n} - 1$ and $(q^{n} - 1) /2$ , respectively. We have already shown that, with…

The existence of $F_{q}$ -primitive points on curves using freeness

Stephen D. Cohen, Giorgos Kapetanakis, Lucas Reis

Let $C_{Q}$ be the cyclic group of order $Q$ , $n$ a divisor of $Q$ and $r$ a divisor of $Q / n$ . We introduce the set of $(r, n)$ -free elements of $C_{Q}$ and derive a l…
