Abstract:
Let $S$ be an arbitrary finite chain ring of prime characteristic. The
aim of this paper is to describe the set of polynomial
transformations and polynomial substitutions of $S$. The
numbers of polynomial transformations and polynomial
substitutions are found in some particular cases. We prove that
if $S$ is non-commutative, then any polynomial transformation of
$S$ is non-transitive. The research was supported by grant 2358.2003.9 of the President of the Russian
Federation for supporting the leading scientific schools.
