Let $P(x)$ be an irreducible monic polynomial of degree $\ge4$ with integer coefficients. We all know that over a finite field $\mathbb F_p$, $P$ will often split, and I am interested in polynomials ...

Let $F_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements with characteristic $p$ and with $g$ being a primitive root. Let $N$ be a divisor of $q-1$ and let $C_0$ be the subgroup of $F_q^*$ with index $N$. Then ...

$\mathbb{F}_q^\times$ is the multiplicative group of the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, and H is a multiplicative subgroup of $\mathbb{F}_q^\times$ of order $r<q−1$. What is the average number of ...
