For any affine hypersurface defined by a complete symmetric polynomial in k≥ 3 variables of degree m over the finite field F q of q elements, a special case of our theorem says that this hypersurface has at least 6 q k− 3 rational points over F q if 1≤ m≤ q− 3 and q is odd. A key ingredient in our proof is Segre’s classical theorem on ovals in finite projective planes.
