Imagine that we have polynomials $$F_1, F_2, \ldots, F_n : \mathbb{F}_p \rightarrow \mathbb{F}_p\ ,$$ $n$ polynomials in $n$ variables, which define a map of sets $\mathbb{F}_q \rightarrow \mathbb{F}_q$, $q = p^n$, and we want to find the map as a single univariate polynomial over $\mathbb{F}_q$. This is a follow-up question that is answered already here for the reverse direction.

The reverse direction of the previous question would be taking $n$ polynomials in $n$ variables $F_1, F_2, \ldots, F_n : \mathbb{F}_p^n \rightarrow \mathbb{F}_p$ which (given a choice of generator for $\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$) define a map of sets $\mathbb{F}_{p^n} \to \mathbb{F}_{p^n}$, and trying to realize that map as a single univariate polynomial over $\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$.

Yes, I will update the question with the better description. But that's what I had in mind, is it possible?

Just use .change_ring() method:

p = 7
R.<x> = GF(p)[]
f = x^2 + x + 1
g = f.change_ring(GF(p^3))

Thank you, I didn't explain the question clearly, I update it.
