Title
Deterministic equation solving over finite fields
Abstract
Deterministic algorithms are presented for the efficient solution of diagonal homogeneous equations in many variables over finite fields. As auxiliary algorithms, it is shown how to compute a field generator that is an nth power, and how to write elements as sums of nth powers, for a given integer n. All these algorithms take polynomial time in n and in the logarithm of the field size, and are practical as stated.
