Abstract

Let n be a natural number, q a prime power, and a primitive elementof the field GF(qⁿ). This paper shows that there exist absolute constants c₁,c₂0such that for N max(exp exp(c₁ln²n),c₂n lnq) the set of elements ¹..,^Nincludes at least one which generates a primitive normal basis of GF(qⁿ) over GF(q).For fixed n, this gives a polynomial time algorithm in lnq which, given an arbitraryprimitive element(qⁿ), finds an element which generates a primitive normalbasis for GF(qⁿ) over GF(q).
