Abstract
Stability results play an important role in Galois geometries. The famous resultant method, developed by Szőnyi and Weiner [12], [11], became very fruitful and resulted in many stability theorems in the last two decades. This method is based on some bivariate polynomials associated to point sets. In this paper we generalize the method for the multidimensional case and show some new applications. We build up the multivariate polynomial machinery and apply it for Rédei polynomials. We can prove a high dimensional analogue of the result of Szőnyi-Weiner [9], concerning the number of hyperplanes being skew to a point set of the space. We prove general results on “partial blocking sets”, using the tools we have developed.
期刊介绍:
Finite Fields and Their Applications is a peer-reviewed technical journal publishing papers in finite field theory as well as in applications of finite fields. As a result of applications in a wide variety of areas, finite fields are increasingly important in several areas of mathematics, including linear and abstract algebra, number theory and algebraic geometry, as well as in computer science, statistics, information theory, and engineering.
For cohesion, and because so many applications rely on various theoretical properties of finite fields, it is essential that there be a core of high-quality papers on theoretical aspects. In addition, since much of the vitality of the area comes from computational problems, the journal publishes papers on computational aspects of finite fields as well as on algorithms and complexity of finite field-related methods.
The journal also publishes papers in various applications including, but not limited to, algebraic coding theory, cryptology, combinatorial design theory, pseudorandom number generation, and linear recurring sequences. There are other areas of application to be included, but the important point is that finite fields play a nontrivial role in the theory, application, or algorithm.
