Abstract
We classify all permutation polynomials of the form \(x^3g(x^{q-1})\) of \({\mathbb F}_{q^2}\) where \(g(x)=x^3+bx+c\) and \(b,c \in {\mathbb F}_q^*\). Moreover we find new examples of permutation polynomials and we correct some contradictory statements in the recent literature. We assume that \(\gcd (3,q-1)=1\) and we use a well known criterion due to Wan and Lidl, Park and Lee, Akbary and Wang, Wang, and Zieve.
