PIR Schemes from nD-Cyclic and nD-Constacyclic Codes and Their Monomial Equivalence Markus Grassl, Burcu Ecem Karakaş, Ferruh Özbudak, Buket Özkaya Computational and Applied Mathematics, 2026 Private Information Retrieval (PIR) scheme aims to retrieve data from a database without revealing any details about the identity of the data. The PIR scheme for coded storage systems with colluding servers gives a better PIR rate when the storage code and retrieval code have transitive automorphism groups. In this work, we study the transitivity of n D-cyclic codes and then PIR schemes from them together with several examples of n D-cyclic codes with better PIR rates. Then, we show the monomial equivalence between n D-cyclic codes and certain n D-constacyclic codes, which can be used as an alternative family of transitive codes.
On some permutation trinomials in characteristic three Burcu Gülmez Temür, Buket Özkaya Hacettepe Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, 2025 In this paper, we determine the permutation properties of the polynomial $x^3+x^{q+2}-x^{4q-1}$ over the finite field $\\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ in characteristic three. Moreover, we consider the trinomials of the form $x^{4q-1}+x^{2q+1} \\pm x^{3}$. In particular, we first show that $x^3+x^{q+2}-x^{4q-1}$ permutes $\\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ with $q=3^m$ if and only if $m$ is odd. This enables us to show that the sufficient condition in [34, Theorem 4] is also necessary. Next, we prove that $x^{4q-1}+x^{2q+1} - x^{3}$ permutes $\\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ with $q=3^m$ if and only if $m\\not\\equiv 0 \\pmod 4$. Consequently, we prove that the sufficient condition in [20, Theorem 3.2] is also necessary. Finally, we investigate the trinomial $x^{4q-1}+x^{2q+1} + x^{3}$ and show that it is never a permutation polynomial of $\\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$ in any characteristic. All the polynomials considered in this work are not quasi-multiplicative equivalent to any known class of permutation trinomials.
New distance bounds for quasi-cyclic codes Ferruh Özbudak, Buket Özkaya Designs Codes and Cryptography, 2024 We consider the minimum weight of codewords in a quasi-cyclic code and characterize the estimate in its most general setup using their concatenated structure. The new bound we derive generalizes the Jensen and Güneri–Özbudak bounds and it holds for the more general class of multilevel concatenated codes.
Complete characterization of a class of permutation trinomials in characteristic five Markus Grassl, Ferruh Özbudak, Buket Özkaya, Burcu Gülmez Temür Cryptography and Communications, 2024 In this paper, we address an open problem posed by Bai and Xia in [2]. We study polynomials of the form $$f(x)=x^{4q+1}+\\lambda _1x^{5q}+\\lambda _2x^{q+4}$$ f ( x ) = x 4 q + 1 + λ 1 x 5 q + λ 2 x q + 4 over the finite field $${\\mathbb F}_{5^{k}}$$ F 5 k , which are not quasi-multiplicative equivalent to any of the known permutation polynomials in the literature. We find necessary and sufficient conditions on $$\\lambda _1, \\lambda _2 \\in {\\mathbb F}_{5^{k}}$$ λ 1 , λ 2 ∈ F 5 k so that f(x) is a permutation monomial, binomial, or trinomial of $${\\mathbb F}_{5^{2k}}$$ F 5 2 k .
