Abstract:

Wan and Zhang have recently obtained a nontrivial lower bound for the number of zeros of complete symmetric polynomials over finite fields, and proposed a problem whether their bound can be improved. In this talk, I will introduce how to improve Wan-Zhang's bound from three aspects. Our results are based on the estimates related to the number of certain permutations and the value sets of non-permutation polynomials associated to the complete symmetric polynomial.
