Given a set U of size q in an affine plane of order q, we determine the possibilities for the number of directions of secants of U, and in many cases characterize the sets U with given number of secant directions.

In this paper the number of directions determined by a set of q&n points of AG(2, q) is studied. To such a set we associate a curve of degree n and show that its linear components correspond to points that can be added to the set without changing the set of determined directions.

In this paper, we give a reduction theorem for the number of solutions of any diagonal equation over a finite field. Using this reduction theorem and the theory of quadratic equations over a finite field, we also get an explicit formula for the number of solutions of a diagonal equation over a finit

This note presents a method that determines all power integral bases of a quartic number field by solving Thue equations of degrees 3 and 4. To this end, projective representations of the ring of integers by graded complete intersections are studied and a criterion for monogeneity in terms of projec
