When ''G'' is the finite general linear group GL<sub>''n''</sub>('''F'''<sub>''q''</sub>) over the finite field '''F'''<sub>''q''</sub> of order a prime power ''q'' acting on the ring '''F'''<sub>''q''</sub>[''X''<sub>1</sub>, ...,''X''<sub>''n''</sub>] in the natural way, {{harvtxt|Dickson|1911}} found a complete set of invariants as follows. Write [''e''<sub>1</sub>, ...,''e''<sub>''n''</sub>] for the determinant of the matrix whose entries are ''X''{{su|b=''i''|p=''q''<sup>''e''<sub>''j''</sub></sup>}}, where ''e''<sub>1</sub>, ...,''e''<sub>''n''</sub> are non-negative integers. For example, the [[Moore determinant over a finite field|Moore determinant]] [0,1,2] of order 3 is
:<math>\begin{vmatrix} x_1 & x_2 & x_3\\x_1^q & x_2^q & x_3^q\\x_1^{q^2} & x_2^{q^2} & x_3^{q^2} \end{vmatrix}</math>
Then under the action of an element ''g'' of GL<sub>''n''</sub>('''F'''<sub>''q''</sub>) these determinants are all multiplied by det(''g''), so they are all invariants of SL<sub>''n''</sub>('''F'''<sub>''p''</sub>) and the
