Theory of univariate polynomials #
The main defs here are eval₂
, eval
, and map
.
We give several lemmas about their interaction with each other and with module operations.
Evaluate a polynomial p
given a ring hom f
from the scalar ring
to the target and a value x
for the variable in the target
Equations
Instances For
eval₂AddMonoidHom (f : R →+* S) (x : S)
is the AddMonoidHom
from
R[X]
to S
obtained by evaluating the pushforward of p
along f
at x
.

We next prove that eval₂ is multiplicative as long as target ring is commutative (even if the source ring is not).

eval x p
is the evaluation of the polynomial p
at x
Equations
- Polynomial.eval = Polynomial.eval₂ (RingHom.id R)
Instances For
A reformulation of the expansion of (1 + y)^d: $$(d + 1) (1 + y)^d - (d + 1)y^d = \sum_{i = 0}^d {d + 1 \choose i} \cdot i \cdot y^{i - 1}.$$

IsRoot p x
implies x
is a root of p
. The evaluation of p

is zero

Instances For
If R
and S
are isomorphic, then so are their polynomial rings.
Equations
- One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
Instances For
we have made eval₂
irreducible from the start.
Perhaps we can make also eval
, comp
, and map
irreducible too?
eval r
, regarded as a ring homomorphism from R[X]
to R
.

comp p
, regarded as a ring homomorphism from R[X]
to itself.

Polynomial evaluation commutes with Multiset.prod
Polynomial evaluation commutes with Finset.prod
