Applications include maxmimum-length linear feedback shift registers with efficient implementation in both hardware and software. Proof is needed that there exists a primitive GF(2)[X] polynomial P[X] of degree n and exactly 5 terms for all n>4. %H A132451 Index entries for sequences operating on GF(2)[X]-polynomials %e A132451 a(6)=91, or 1011011 in binary, representing the GF(2)[X] polynomial X^6+X^4+X^3+X^1+1, because it has degree 6 and exactly 5 terms and is primitive, contrary to X^6+X^3+X^2+X^1+1 and X^6+X^4+X^2+X^1+1. %Y A132451 For n>4, a(n) belongs to A091250. A132452(n) = a(n)-2^n, giving a more compact representation. Cf. A132447, similar with no restriction on number of terms. Cf. A132449, similar with restriction to a most 5 terms. Cf. A132453, similar with restriction to minimal number of terms. %Y A132451 Sequence in context: A033232 A146031 A139968 this_sequence A004943 A004963 A061153 %Y A132451 Adjacent sequences: A132448 A132449 A132450 this_sequence A132452 A132453 A132454 %K A132451 nonn %O A132451 1,5 %A A132451 Francois R.
