Density of Periodic Points for Lattès maps over Finite Fields

Zoë Bell, Jasmine Camero, Karina Cho +5

Let $L_{d}$ be the Lattès map associated to the multiplication-by- $d$ endomorphism of an elliptic curve $E$ defined over a finite field $F_{q}$ . We determine the density $δ(L_…

Euler characteristic of the space of real multivariate irreducible polynomials

Trevor Hyde

We compute the compactly supported Euler characteristic of the space of degree $d$ irreducible polynomials in $n$ variables with real coefficients and show that the values are give…

Cyclotomic factors of necklace polynomials

Trevor Hyde

We observe that the necklace polynomials $M_{d} (x) = \frac{1}{d} \sum_{e ∣ d} μ (e) x^{d / e}$ are highly reducible over $Q$ with many cyclotomic factors. Furthermore, the seque…

Normal elements in finite fields

Trevor Hyde

We give a simple derivation of the formula for the number of normal elements in an extension of finite fields. Our proof is based on the fact that units in the Galois group ring of…

Liminal reciprocity and factorization statistics

Trevor Hyde

Let $M_{d, n} (q)$ denote the number of monic irreducible polynomials in $F_{q} [x_{1}, x_{2}, \dots, x_{n}]$ of degree $d$ . We show that for a fixed degree $d$ , the sequence $M_{d…

A Wallis Product on Clovers

Trevor Hyde

We prove a generalization of the Wallis product for a sequence of real numbers related to arc lengths of clover curves. Our proof generalizes a common argument given for the origin…
