Distribution of power residues over shifted subfields and maximal cliques in generalized Paley graphs
We derive an asymptotic formula for the number of solutions in a given subfield to certain system of equations over finite fields. As an application, we construct new families of maximal cliques in generalized Paley graphs. Given integers $d\ge2$ and $q \equiv 1 \pmod d$, we show that for each …
