We find the number of compositions over finite abelian groups under two types of restrictions: (i) each part belongs to a given subset and (ii) small runs of consecutive parts must have given properties. Waring's problem over finite fields can be converted to type (i) compositions, whereas Carlitz and "locally Mullen" compositions can be formulated as type (ii) compositions. We use the multisection formula to translate the problem from integers to group elements, the transfer matrix method to do exact counting, and finally the Perron-Frobenius theorem to derive asymptotics. We also exhibit bijections involving certain restricted classes of compositions.

An efficient p-adic method and the structure of an algorithm for computing the sums of characters of finite abelian groups are presented. The method and algorithm are based on the A.G. Postnikov summation method of characters modulo a prime power and its developments. A brief survey of the theory of characters of finite abelian groups, p-adic arithmetic and analysis is presented. Questions of the efficiency of p-adic methods are discussed. Moreover, we present results of computation of other types of sums of characters (Kloosterman sums), which are connecting with Artin-Schreier coverings over prime finite fields. The corresponding method and algorithm are based on the development of another method by A.G. Postnikov. Examples of computation of sums of characters are given.

Abstract We present new examples of finite-dimensional Nichols algebras over fields of characteristic 2 from braided vector spaces that are not of diagonal type, admit realizations as Yetter–Drinfeld modules over finite abelian groups, and are analogous to Nichols algebras of finite Gelfand–Kirillov dimension in characteristic 0. New finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras over fields of characteristic 2 are obtained by bosonization with group algebras of suitable finite abelian groups.
