The differential multiplicity conjecture for nice exponents
The differential multiplicity conjecture for nice exponents
Let be a finite field of odd characteristic, and let be an exponent. Write for the stated exponent equivalence relation, and call nice when it has the property defined in the source's preceding discussion. A differential multiplicity is the number of solutions associated with a differential of the power mapping. The differential multiplicity conjecture for nice exponents. If and is nice, then is a differential multiplicity. The conjecture is based on numerical evidence for odd characteristics from through ; the supplied text does not state a resolution.
