AB - Given a large prime number $p$ and a rational function $r(X)$ defined over $\mathbb {F}_p = \mathbb {Z} / p \mathbb {Z}$, we investigate the size of the set $\left\lbrace x \in \mathbb {F}_p : \tilde{r}(x) > \tilde{r}(x +1)\right.$, where $\tilde{r}(x)$ and $\tilde{r}(x + 1)$ denote the least positive representatives of $r(x)$ and $r(x+1)$ in $\mathbb {Z}$ modulo $p\mathbb {Z}$.
