Let $mathbb{F}_p$ be the finite field of prime order $p$. For any function $f colon mathbb{F}_p{}^n to mathbb{F}_p$, there exists a unique polynomial over $mathbb{F}_p$ having degree at most $p-1$ with respect to each variable which coincides with $f$. We call it the minimal polynomial of $f$. It is in general a non-trivial task to find a concrete expression of the minimal polynomial of a given function, which has only been worked out for limited classes of functions in the literature. In this paper, we study minimal polynomial expressions of several functions that are closely related to some practically important procedures such as auction and voting.

It is known that any $n$-variable function on a finite prime field of characteristic $p$ can be expressed as a polynomial over the same field with at most $p^n$ monomials. However, it is not obvious to determine the polynomial for a given concrete fu nction. In this paper, we study the concrete polynomial expressions of the carries in addition and multiplication of $p$-ary integers. For the case of addition, our result gives a new family of symmetric polynomials, which generalizes the known result for the binary case $p = 2$ where the carries are given by elementary symmetric polynomials. On the other hand, for the case of multiplication of $n$ single-digit integers, we give a simple formula of the polynomial expression for the carry to the next digit using the Bernoulli numbers, and show that it has only $(n+1)(p-1)/2 + 1$ monomials, which is significantly fewer than the worst-case number $p^n$ of monomials for general functions. We also discuss applications of our results to cryptographic computation on encrypted data.
Let f be a function mapping an n dimensional vector space over GF(p) to GF(p). When p is 2, Bernasconi et al. have shown that there is a correspondence between certain properties of f (e.g., if it is bent) and properties of its associated Cayley grap h. Analogously, but much earlier, Dillon showed that f is bent if and only if the level curves of f had certain combinatorial properties (again, only when p is 2). The attempt is to investigate an analogous theory when p is greater than 2 using the (apparently new) combinatorial concept of a weighted partial difference set. More precisely, we try to investigate which properties of the Cayley graph of f can be characterized in terms of function-theoretic properties of f, and which function-theoretic properties of f correspond to combinatorial properties of the set of level curves, i.e., the inverse map of f. While the natural generalizations of the Bernasconi correspondence and Dillon correspondence are not true in general, using extensive computations, we are able to determine a classification in some small cases. Our main conjecture is Conjecture 67.
Let $mathcal{T}^{(p)}_n$ be the set of $p$-ary labeled trees on ${1,2,dots,n}$. A maximal decreasing subtree of an $p$-ary labeled tree is defined by the maximal $p$-ary subtree from the root with all edges being decreasing. In this paper, we study a new refinement $mathcal{T}^{(p)}_{n,k}$ of $mathcal{T}^{(p)}_n$, which is the set of $p$-ary labeled trees whose maximal decreasing subtree has $k$ vertices.
For any positive integer $t$, a emph{$t$-broom} is a graph obtained from $K_{1,t+1}$ by subdividing an edge once. In this paper, we show that, for graphs $G$ without induced $t$-brooms, we have $chi(G) = o(omega(G)^{t+1})$, where $chi(G)$ and $omega( G)$ are the chromatic number and clique number of $G$, respectively. When $t=2$, this answers a question of Schiermeyer and Randerath. Moreover, for $t=2$, we strengthen the bound on $chi(G)$ to $7.5omega(G)^2$, confirming a conjecture of Sivaraman. For $tgeq 3$ and {$t$-broom, $K_{t,t}$}-free graphs, we improve the bound to $o(omega^{t-1+frac{2}{t+1}})$.
We prove Stanleys conjecture that, if delta_n is the staircase shape, then the skew Schur functions s_{delta_n / mu} are non-negative sums of Schur P-functions. We prove that the coefficients in this sum count certain fillings of shifted shapes. In p articular, for the skew Schur function s_{delta_n / delta_{n-2}}, we discuss connections with Eulerian numbers and alternating permutations.
