报告题目：Counting polynomials over finite fields with prescribed leading coefficients and linear factors
报告人：Zhicheng Gao School of Mathematics and Statistics，Carleton University, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
报告摘要：We count polynomials over finite fields with prescribed leading coefficients and a given number of linear factors. This is equivalent to counting codewords in Reed-Solomon codes which are at a certain distance from a received word. Generating functions defined on a group algebra are used to keep track of the equivalence classes of leading coefficients. The sieve formula of Li and Wan's is applied to simplify the generating functions in some special cases. The moments of the distance between a received word and random codewords in a Reed-Solomon code can also be obtained in general. Our results extend and improve some recent results by Li and Wan, and Zhou, Wang and Wang.
