摘要
With F-q the finite field of q elements, we investigate the following question. If gamma generates F-qn over F-q and if beta is a nonzero element of F-qn, is there always an a is an element of F-q such that beta(gamma + a) is a primitive element? We resolve this case when n = 3, thereby proving a conjecture by Cohen. We also substantially improve on what is known when n = 4.
