A polynomial f of degree n greater than one, which is irreducible over F q, defines a field extension of degree n which is isomorphic to the field with q n elements: the elements of this extension are the polynomials of degree lower than n; addition, subtraction and multiplication by an element of F q are those of the polynomials; the product ...
Every imperfect field is necessarily transcendental over its prime subfield (the minimal subfield), because the latter is perfect. An example of an imperfect field is the field F q ( x ) {\displaystyle \mathbf {F} _{q}(x)} , since the Frobenius endomorphism sends x ↦ x p {\displaystyle x\mapsto x^{p}} and therefore is not surjective.
The Gaussian binomial coefficient, written as () or [], is a polynomial in q with integer coefficients, whose value when q is set to a prime power counts the number of subspaces of dimension k in a vector space of dimension n over , a finite field with q elements; i.e. it is the number of points in the finite Grassmannian (,).
As an example, in the polynomial ring k [X,Y] consider the ideal generated by the irreducible polynomial Y 2 − X 3 and form the field of fractions of the quotient ring k [X,Y]/(Y 2 − X 3).
The map x ↦ L(x) is a linear map over any field containing F q.; The set of roots of L is an F q-vector space and is closed under the q-Frobenius map.; Conversely, if U is any F q-linear subspace of some finite field containing F q, then the polynomial that vanishes exactly on U is a linearised polynomial.
Specifically, for α ≠ 0 ∈ F q with q = p e for some prime p and any integers n ≥ 0 and 0 ≤ k < p, the n th Dickson polynomial of the (k + 1) th kind over F q, denoted by D n,k (x,α), is defined by [11]
In mathematics, particularly computational algebra, Berlekamp's algorithm is a well-known method for factoring polynomials over finite fields (also known as Galois fields). The algorithm consists mainly of matrix reduction and polynomial GCD computations. It was invented by Elwyn Berlekamp in 1967.
Hilbert proved the theorem (for the special case of multivariate polynomials over a field) in the course of his proof of finite generation of rings of invariants. [1] The theorem is interpreted in algebraic geometry as follows: every algebraic set is the set of the common zeros of finitely many polynomials.
