Theory of univariate polynomials #
This file defines Polynomial R
, the type of univariate polynomials over the semiring R
, builds
a semiring structure on it, and gives basic definitions that are expanded in other files in this
directory.
Main definitions #
monomial n a
is the polynomiala X^n
. Note thatmonomial n
is defined as anR
-linear map.C a
is the constant polynomiala
. Note thatC
is defined as a ring homomorphism.X
is the polynomialX
, i.e.,monomial 1 1
.p.sum f
is∑ n in p.support, f n (p.coeff n)
, i.e., one sums the values of functions applied to coefficients of the polynomialp
.p.erase n
is the polynomialp
in which one removes thec X^n
term.
There are often two natural variants of lemmas involving sums, depending on whether one acts on the
polynomials, or on the function. The naming convention is that one adds index
when acting on
the polynomials. For instance,
sum_add_index
states that(p + q).sum f = p.sum f + q.sum f
;sum_add
states thatp.sum (fun n x ↦ f n x + g n x) = p.sum f + p.sum g
.- Notation to refer to
Polynomial R
, asR[X]
orR[t]
.
Implementation #
Polynomials are defined using R[ℕ]
, where R
is a semiring.
The variable X
commutes with every polynomial p
: lemma X_mul
proves the identity
X * p = p * X
. The relationship to R[ℕ]
is through a structure
to make polynomials irreducible from the point of view of the kernel. Most operations
are irreducible since Lean can not compute anyway with AddMonoidAlgebra
. There are two
exceptions that we make semireducible:
- The zero polynomial, so that its coefficients are definitionally equal to
0
. - The scalar action, to permit typeclass search to unfold it to resolve potential instance diamonds.
The raw implementation of the equivalence between R[X]
and R[ℕ]
is
done through ofFinsupp
and toFinsupp
(or, equivalently, rcases p
when p
is a polynomial
gives an element q
of R[ℕ]
, and conversely ⟨q⟩
gives back p
). The
equivalence is also registered as a ring equiv in Polynomial.toFinsuppIso
. These should
in general not be used once the basic API for polynomials is constructed.

Polynomial R
is the type of univariate polynomials over R
.
Polynomials should be seen as (semi-)rings with the additional constructor X
.
The embedding from R
is called C
.

Since R[X]
is not defeq to R[ℕ]
, but instead is a structure wrapping
it, we have to copy across all the arithmetic operators manually, along with the lemmas about how
they unfold around Polynomial.ofFinsupp
and Polynomial.toFinsupp
.
