Existence problems of primitive polynomials over finite fields
This thesis concerns existence of primitive polynomials over finite fields with one coefficient arbitrarily prescribed. It completes the proof of a fundamental conjecture of Hansen and Mullen (1992), which asserts that, with some explicable general exceptions, there always exists a primitive polynom...
