Wan's conjecture on limiting Newton polygons
Let be a non-constant monic polynomial in . A global permutation polynomial (GPP) over is a polynomial whose reduction modulo is a permutation of for infinitely many finite places . A polynomial is a composition factor of if for some polynomial . Wan's conjecture. The polynomial contains a GPP over of degree greater than as a composition factor if and only if
does not exist. This conjecture relates arithmetic decompositions of polynomials through global permutation polynomials to the existence of limiting -adic Newton polygons of their exponential-sum -functions; the supplied text gives no evidence resolving it.
