Commutative Presemifields and Semifields

Introduction

A presemifield is a ring with left and right distributivity and with no zero divisor. A presemifield with a multiplicative identity is called a semifield. Any finite presemifield can be represented by $\mathbb {S} =(\mathbb {F} _{p^{n}},+,\star )$, for $p$ a prime, $n$ a positive integer, $\mathbb {S} =(\mathbb {F} _{p^{n}},+)$ additive group and $x\star y$ multiplication linear in each variable.

Two presemifields $\mathbb {S} _{1}=(\mathbb {F} _{p^{n}},+,\star )$ and $\mathbb {S} _{2}=(\mathbb {F} _{p^{n}},+,\circ )$ are called isotopic if there exist three linear permutation Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle T,M,N} of Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \mathbb{F}_{p^n}} such that Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle T(x\star y)=M(x)\circ N(y)} , for any Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle x,y\in\mathbb{F}_{p^n}} . If Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle M=N} then they are called strongly isotopic. Each commutative presemifields of odd order defines a planar DO polynomial and viceversa:
