Incomplete character sums and a special class of permutations

S. D. Cohen, H. Niederreiter, I. E. Shparlinski, M. Zieve (2001)

Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

We present a method of bounding incomplete character sums for finite abelian groups with arguments produced by a first-order recursion. This method is particularly effective if the recursion involves a special type of permutation called an -orthomorphism. Examples of -orthomorphisms are given.

Linear independence of values of a certain generalisation of the exponential function – a new proof of a theorem of Carlson

Rolf Wallisser (2005)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

Let Q be a nonconstant polynomial with integer coefficients and without zeros at the non–negative integers. Essentially with the method of Hermite, a new proof is given on linear independence of values at rational points of the function G ( x ) = n = 0 x n Q ( 1 ) Q ( 2 ) Q ( n ) .
