Irreducible Polynomials over Finite Fields
As we will see, modular arithmetic aids in testing the irreducibility of polynomials and even in completely factoring polynomials in Z[x]. If we expect a polynomial f(x) is irreducible, for example, it is not unreasonable to try to find a prime p such that f(x) is irreducible modulo p. If we can find such a prime p and p does not divide the leading coefficient of f(x), then f(x) is irreducible ...
متن کاملModel Counting Using the Inclusion-Exclusion Principle
The inclusion-exclusion principle is a well-known mathematical principle used to count the number of elements in the union of a collection of sets in terms of intersections of sub-collections. We present an algorithm for counting the number of solutions of a given k-SAT formula using the inclusion-exclusion principle. The key contribution of our work consists of a novel subsumption pruning tech...
متن کاملConstruction of Irreducible Polynomials over Finite Fields
In this paper we investigate some results on the construction of irreducible polynomials over finite fields. Basic results on finite fields are introduced and proved. Several theorems proving irreducibility of certain polynomials over finite fields are presented and proved. Two theorems on the construction of special sequences of irreducible polynomials over finite fields are investigated in de...
متن کاملConstructing irreducible polynomials over finite fields
We describe a new method for constructing irreducible polynomials modulo a prime number p. The method mainly relies on Chebotarev’s density theorem.
متن کاملGenerators and irreducible polynomials over finite fields
Weil’s character sum estimate is used to study the problem of constructing generators for the multiplicative group of a finite field. An application to the distribution of irreducible polynomials is given, which confirms an asymptotic version of a conjecture of Hansen-Mullen.
