We consider Weil sums of binomials of the form $W_{F,d}\left(a\right)={\sum }_{x\in F}\psi (x^d-ax)$, where F is a finite field, ψ: F → ℂ is the canonical additive character, $gcd(d,|F^{\times }\left|\right)=1$, and $a\in F^{\times }$. If we fix F and d, and examine the values of $W_{F,d}\left(a\right)$ as a runs through $F^{\times }$, we always obtain at least three distinct values unless d is degenerate (a power of the characteristic of F modulo $|F^{\times }|$). Choices of F and d for which we obtain only three values are quite rare and desirable in a wide variety of applications. We show that if F is a field of order 3ⁿ with n odd, and $d=3^r+2$ with...
