Factorization of monic polynomials of given degree #
This file contains two main results:
Polynomial.IsMonicOfDegree.eq_mul_isMonicOfDegree_one_isMonicOfDegreeshows that a monic polynomial of positive degree over an algebraically closed field can be written as a monic polynomial of degree 1 times another monic factor.Polynomial.IsMonicOfDegree.eq_mul_isMonicOfDegree_two_isMonicOfDegreeshows that a monic polynomial of degree at least two overâcan be written as a monic polynomial of degree two times another monic factor.
If f : F[X] is monic of degree ⼠1 and F is an algebraically closed field,
then f = fâ * fâ with fâ monic of degree 1 and fâ monic of degree f.natDegree - 1.
If f : â[X] is monic of positive degree, then f = fâ * fâ with fâ monic
of degree 1 or 2.
This relies on the fact that irreducible polynomials over â have degree at most 2.
If f : â[X] is monic of degree ⼠2, then f = fâ * fâ with fâ monic of degree 2
and fâ monic of degree f.natDegree - 2.
This relies on the fact that irreducible polynomials over â have degree at most 2.
