An elementary proof of Sylvester's double sums for subresultants
نویسندگان
چکیده
In 1853 Sylvester stated and proved an elegant formula that expresses the polynomial subresultants in terms of the roots of the input polynomials. Sylvester’s formula was also recently proved by Lascoux and Pragacz by using multi-Schur functions and divided differences. In this paper, we provide an elementary proof that uses only basic properties of matrix multiplication and Vandermonde determinants.

Sylvester's double sums: An inductive proof of the general case
In 1853 J. Sylvester introduced a family of double sum expressions for two finite sets of indeterminates and showed that some members of the family are essentially the polynomial subresultants of the monic polynomials associated with these sets. In 2009, in a joint work with C. D’Andrea and H. Hong we gave the complete description of all the members of the family as expressions in the coefficie...

In 1853 Sylvester introduced a family of double sum expressions for two finite sets of indeterminates and showed that some members of the family are essentially the polynomial subresultants of the monic polynomials associated with these sets. A question naturally arises: What are the other members of the family? This paper provides a complete answer to this question. The technique that we devel...

متن کاملDouble Sylvester sums for subresultants and multi-Schur functions
J. J. Sylvester has announced formulas expressing the subresultants (or the successive polynomial remainders for the Euclidean division) of two polynomials, in terms of some double sums over the roots of the two polynomials. We prove Sylvester formulas using the techniques of multivariate polynomials involving multi-Schur functions and divided differences. Introduction and statement of the main...
متن کاملAn elementary approach to subresultants theory
In this paper we give an elementary approach to univariate polynomial subresultants theory. Most of the known results of subresultants are recovered, some with more precision, without using Euclidean divisions or existence of roots for univariate polynomials. The main contributions of this paper are not new results on subresultants, but rather extensions of the main results over integral rings ...
