We find necessary and sufficient conditions on λ1, λ2 ∈ F_5^k so that f (x) is a permutation monomial, binomial, or trinomial of F_5^2k .enPermutation polynomialsFinite fieldsAbsolutely irreducibleMSC 11T0611T7112E10Complete characterization of a class of permutation trinomials in characteristic fiveArticle
