Conway Polynomial for p=2, n=3?

Im doing an exercise on Conway polynomials. As far as im concerned, for p=2, n=3 both $f(x)=x^3 + x^2 + 1$ and $g(x)=x^3 + x + 1$ satisfy every condition. According to every source i found, the latter ...

Show that $f(x)=x^2+2x-1 \in \mathbb{Z}_3[x]$ is irreducible over $\mathbb{Z}_3$. And find the elements of a finite field with 9 elements.

Show that $f(x)=x^2+2x-1 \in \mathbb{Z}_3[x]$ is irreducible over $\mathbb{Z}_3$. Using this fact construct a finite field $\mathbb{F}_9$ of $9$ elements. If $\alpha$ is a root of $f(x)$, then find ...

$\frac{g(x)}{f^*(x)}=\sum_{n\geq 0}s_nx^n$ generates recursion

I need help proving that in $\mathbb{F}_q$, if $g$ is a polynomial of degree less than $k$ and $f^*(x)=1-(a_{k-1}x+\dots+a_0x^k)$ a polynomial of degree $k$, then $$\frac{g(x)}{f^*(x)}=\sum_{n\geq 0}...

Given a support set calculating Walsh transform.

I have support set of length 120 of a bent function over $GF(256)$. $GF(256)=<\beta>$ is generated by the polynomial $x^8+ x^4 + x^3 + x^2 + 1$. The support set is of the form {$\alpha 0 1 0$, $\...

Point on elliptic curve that is torsion over algebraic closure

Say I have an elliptic curve $E: y^2 = x^3+4$ over $\mathbb{F}_{7}$. I want to find an $7$-torsion point in $\overline{\mathbb{F}}_7$ which is not in $\mathbb{F}_7$. How do I do that? The $n$-torsion ...

Can polynomial in Z[x]/(x^n-1) have non-integer coefficients?

I am trying to compute an inverse of some polynomial $f$ in $\mathbb{Z}[x]/(x^5-1)$. Is it possible that $f^{-1}$ has coefficients that are non-integer like 0.33? Thanks in advance.
