Permutation binomials

A polynomial f over a finite feld F is a permutation polynomial if the mapping F→F defined by f is one-to-one. We are concerned here with binomials, that is, polynomials of the shape f=aXi+bXj+c, i>j≥1. Even in this restricted setting, it is impossible to give general necessary and sufficient con...
