Density of Periodic Points for Lattès maps over Finite Fields
Zoë Bell, Jasmine Camero, Karina Cho +5
Let be the Lattès map associated to the multiplication-by- endomorphism of an elliptic curve defined over a finite field . We determine the density $δ(L_…
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 denote the number of monic irreducible polynomials in of degree . We show that for a fixed degree , 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…
The Galois theory of the lemniscate
David A. Cox, Trevor Hyde
This article studies the Galois groups that arise from division points of the lemniscate. We compute these Galois groups two ways: first, by class field theory, and second, by prov…
