The 10th International Conference on Finite Fields and their Applications

Ghent, July 11-15, 2011

The conference will take place July 11-15, 2011, in Ghent University's congress centre "Het Pand", Ghent, Belgium.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Field-theoretic aspects of finite fields: structure of finite fields, normal bases, polynomials, primitive elements, number-theoretic aspects of finite fields, exponential sums, arithmetic theory of function fields.
  • Computational aspects: algorithms and complexity, polynomial factorization, decomposition and irreducibility testing, sequences and functions.
  • Applications: algebraic coding theory, cryptography, affine and projective geometry over finite fields, algebraic geometry over finite fields, finite incidence geometry, designs and configurations, difference sets, combinatorics, generalisations of finite fields.
