The classification of degree 6 permutation polynomials over finite fields of characteristic 2 was left incomplete. In this paper we complete the classification of permutation polynomials of degree 6 over finite fields of characteristic 2. In addition, all permutation polynomials of degree 7 over finite fields of characteristic 2 are classified.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-02-14T20:44:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11T06" ], "keywords": [ "permutation polynomials", "arbitrary finite field", "classification", "odd characteristic", "left incomplete" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 16, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010arXiv1002.2796L" } } }
