Abstract

We introduce several new methods to obtain upper bounds on the number of solutions of the congruences f (x) =y (mod p) and f (x) = y2(mod p), with a prime p and a polynomial f, where (x, y) belongs to an arbitrary square with side length M.We give two applications of these results to counting hyperelliptic curves in isomorphism classes modulo p and to the diameter of partial trajectories of a polynomial dynamical system modulo p.
