We use the Smith normal form of the augmented degree matrix to estimate the number of rational points on a toric hypersurface over a finite field. This is the continuation of a previous work by Cao in 2009.

Let f be a polynomial in n variables over the finite field 𝔽q and Nq(f) denote the number of 𝔽q-rational points on the affine hypersurface f = 0 in 𝔸n(𝔽q). A φ-reduction of f is defined to be a transformation σ : 𝔽q[x1, …, xn] → 𝔽q[x1, …, xn] such that Nq(f) = Nq(σ(f)) and deg f ≥ deg σ(f). In this paper, we investigate φ-reduction by using the degree matrix which is formed by the exponents of the variables of f. With φ-reduction, we may improve various estimates on Nq(f) and utilize the known results for polynomials with low degree. Furthermore, it can be used to find the explicit formula for Nq(f).

A lattice rule is a quadrature rule used for the approximation of integrals over the s-dimensional unit cube. Every lattice rule may be characterised by an integer r called the rank of the rule and a set of r positive integers called the invariants. By exploiting the group-theoretic structure of lattice rules we determine the number of distinct lattice rules having given invariants. Some numerical results supporting the theoretical results are included. These numerical results are obtained by calculating the Smith normal form of certain integer matrices.

For non-singular matrices with some restrictions, we establish the relationships between Smith normal forms and transforming matrices (a invertible matrices that transform the matrix to its Smith normal form) of two matrices with corresponding matrices of their least common right multiple over a commutative principal ideal domains. Thus, for such a class of matrices, given answer to the well-known task of M. Newman. Moreover, for such matrices, received a new method for finding their least common right multiple which is based on the search for its Smith normal form and transforming matrices.
