✦ Synopsis


In this paper, we provide an account of several new techniques for computing the primitive idempotents of a commutative artinian algebra over a finite field. Examples of such algebras include the center of a finite group algebra or any finite dimensional quotient of a polynomial ring. The computational methods described are applicable in fairly general situations and the algorithms presented are easily programmed. Both pseudocode and operation counts are provided. As an application, the problem of fsctoring polynomials over finite fields is discussed.

Finite upper half planes have been studied by Terras, Poulos, Celniker, Trimble, and Velasquez. Motivated by Stark's p-adic upper half plane as a p-adic analog of the Poincare Β΄upper half plane, a finite field of odd characteristic was used as the finite analog of the real line. The analog of the up

Although it is easy to prove that two finite fields having the same cardinality are isomorphic, the proof uses embeddings into an algebraic closure (or at least into a common overfield), hence is not constructive, and so does not provide explicit isomorphisms. We give algorithms to solve this proble
