Value Sets Of Folding Polynomials Over Finite Fields, Ömer Küçüksakalli
Turkish Journal of Mathematics
Let $k$ be a positive integer that is relatively prime to the order of the Weyl group of a semisimple complex Lie algebra $\mf{g}$. We find the cardinality of the value sets of the folding polynomials $P_\mf{g}^k(\mb{x}) \in \Z[\mb{x}]$ of arbitrary rank $n \geq 1$, over finite fields. We achieve this by using a characterization of their fixed points in terms of exponential sums.

The Large Contraction Principle And Existence Of Periodic Solutions For Infinite Delay Volterra Difference Equations, Paul Eloe, Jaganmohan Jonnalagadda, Youssef Raffoul
Turkish Journal of Mathematics
In this article, we establish sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic solutions of a nonlinear infinite delay Volterra difference equation: $$\Delta x(n) = p(n) + b(n)h(x(n)) + \sum^{n}_{k = -\infty}B(n, k)g(x(k)).$$ We employ a Krasnosel'ski\u{i} type fixed point theorem, originally proved by Burton. The primary sufficient condition is not verifiable in terms of the parameters of the difference equation, and so we provide three applications in which the primary sufficient condition is verified.
