Abstract
This paper shows a necessary and sufficient condition for a family of infinitely many Equally Spaced Polynomial (ESP's) to be irreducible over GF(2) and the uniqueness of irreducible ESP's over GF(2), i.e., there exist no distinct irreducible ESP's of the same degree. It is worth noting that these results in this paper completely characterize all irreducible ESP's.
