  2. Primitive polynomial (field theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_polynomial...

    Over GF(2), x + 1 is a primitive polynomial and all other primitive polynomials have an odd number of terms, since any polynomial mod 2 with an even number of terms is divisible by x + 1 (it has 1 as a root). An irreducible polynomial F(x) of degree m over GF(p), where p is prime, is a primitive polynomial if the smallest positive integer n ...

  3. Polynomial code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_code

    A polynomial code is cyclic if and only if the generator polynomial divides . If the generator polynomial is primitive, then the resulting code has Hamming distance at least 3, provided that . In BCH codes, the generator polynomial is chosen to have specific roots in an extension field, in a way that achieves high Hamming distance.

  4. BCH code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BCH_code

    The generator polynomial of the BCH code is defined as the least common multiple g(x) = lcm(m 1 (x),…,m d − 1 (x)). It can be seen that g(x) is a polynomial with coefficients in GF(q) and divides x n − 1. Therefore, the polynomial code defined by g(x) is a cyclic code.

  5. Conway polynomial (finite fields) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway_polynomial_(finite...

    The Conway polynomial C p,n is defined as the lexicographically minimal monic primitive polynomial of degree n over F p that is compatible with C p,m for all m dividing n.This is an inductive definition on n: the base case is C p,1 (x) = x − α where α is the lexicographically minimal primitive element of F p.

  6. Mathematics of cyclic redundancy checks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_cyclic...

    This capacity assumes that the generator polynomial is the product of + and a primitive polynomial of degree since all primitive polynomials except + have an odd number of non-zero coefficients. All burst errors of length n {\displaystyle n} will be detected by any polynomial of degree n {\displaystyle n} or greater which has a non-zero x 0 ...

  7. Primitive element (finite field) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_element_(finite...

    In this case, a primitive element is also called a primitive root modulo q. For example, 2 is a primitive element of the field GF(3) and GF(5), but not of GF(7) since it generates the cyclic subgroup {2, 4, 1} of order 3; however, 3 is a primitive element of GF(7). The minimal polynomial of a primitive element is a primitive polynomial.

  8. Primitive polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_polynomial

    In different branches of mathematics, primitive polynomial may refer to: Primitive polynomial (field theory) , a minimal polynomial of an extension of finite fields Primitive polynomial (ring theory) , a polynomial with coprime coefficients

  9. Binary quadratic form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_quadratic_form

    It follows that composition induces a well-defined operation on primitive classes of discriminant , and as mentioned above, Gauss showed these classes form a finite abelian group. The identity class in the group is the unique class containing all forms x 2 + B x y + C y 2 {\displaystyle x^{2}+Bxy+Cy^{2}} , i.e., with first coefficient 1.
