摘要:
Let n >= 2 be an integer and let F-q be the finite field with q elements, where q is a prime power. Given F-q-affine hyperplanes A(1), . . . , A(n) of F-qn in general position, we study the existence and distribution of primitive elements of F-qn, avoiding each A(i). We obtain both asymptotic and concrete results, relating to past works on digits over finite fields. (C) 2021 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
