3 unusual facts about finite field


Bose–Mesner algebra

The Kronecker power corresponds to the polynomial ring F\leftX\right first defined on a field \mathbb{F}, while the extension scheme corresponds to the extension field obtained as a quotient.

Coding theory approaches to nucleic acid design

The elements of the Hadamard exponent matrix lie in the Galois field \mathit{GF(p)}, and its row vectors constitute the codewords of what shall be called a generalized Hadamard code.

UMAC

It is easy to construct a class of hash functions when D is field.


Finite geometry

For finite projective spaces of geometric dimension at least three, Wedderburn's little theorem implies that the division ring over which the projective space is defined must be a finite field, GF(q), whose order (that is, number of elements) is q (a prime power).
