Given three nonnegative integers $p,q,r$ and a finite field $F$, how many Hankel matrices $left( x_{i+j}right) _{0leq ileq p, 0leq jleq q}$ over $F$ have rank $leq r$ ? This question is classical, and the answer ($q^{2r}$ when $rleqminleft{ p,qright} $) has been obtained independently by various authors using different tools (Daykin, Elkies, Garcia Armas, Ghorpade and Ram). In this note, we study a refinement of this result: We show that if we fix the first $k$ of the entries $x_{0},x_{1},ldots,x_{k-1}$ for some $kleq rleqminleft{ p,qright} $, then the number of ways to choose the remaining $p+q-k+1$ entries $x_{k},x_{k+1},ldots,x_{p+q}$ such that the resulting Hankel matrix $left( x_{i+j}right) _{0leq ileq p, 0leq jleq q}$ has rank $leq r$ is $q^{2r-k}$. This is exactly the answer that one would expect if the first $k$ entries had no effect on the rank, but of course the situation is not this simple. The refined result generalizes (and provides an alternative proof of) a result by Anzis, Chen, Gao, Kim, Li and Patrias on evaluations of Jacobi-Trudi determinants over finite fields.
We establish an uncertainty principle for functions $f: mathbb{Z}/p rightarrow mathbb{F}_q$ with constant support (where $p mid q-1$). In particular, we show that for any constant $S > 0$, functions $f: mathbb{Z}/p rightarrow mathbb{F}_q$ for which $
Given $E subseteq mathbb{F}_q^d times mathbb{F}_q^d$, with the finite field $mathbb{F}_q$ of order $q$ and the integer $d ge 2$, we define the two-parameter distance set as $Delta_{d, d}(E)=left{left(|x_1-y_1|, |x_2-y_2|right) : (x_1,x_2), (y_1,y_2)
We study some sum-product problems over matrix rings. Firstly, for $A, B, Csubseteq M_n(mathbb{F}_q)$, we have $$ |A+BC|gtrsim q^{n^2}, $$ whenever $|A||B||C|gtrsim q^{3n^2-frac{n+1}{2}}$. Secondly, if a set $A$ in $M_n(mathbb{F}_q)$ satisfies $|A|ge
For an integer $n>2$, a rank-$n$ matroid is called an $n$-spike if it consists of $n$ three-point lines through a common point such that, for all $kin{1, 2, ..., n - 1}$, the union of every set of $k$ of these lines has rank $k+1$. Spikes are very sp
The Euler numbers occur in the Taylor expansion of $tan(x)+sec(x)$. Since Stieltjes, continued fractions and Hankel determinants of the even Euler numbers, on the one hand, of the odd Euler numbers, on the other hand, have been widely studied separat
