Polynomials over a Ring which Permute the Matrices over that Ring.

Abstract

Let R denote a finite commutative ring with identity and let R sub (n x n) denote the nxn matrices over R. Each polynomial f(x) and element of R(in brackets:(x)) defines, via substitution a function from R sub (n x n) to R sub (n x n). In this paper necessary and sufficient conditions are given on a polynomial f(x) in order that it define a permutation of R sub (n x n).
