Base class for generic \(p\)-adic polynomials#

This provides common functionality for all \(p\)-adic polynomials, such as printing and factoring.

AUTHORS:

  • Jeroen Demeyer (2013-11-22): initial version, split off from other files, made Polynomial_padic the common base class for all p-adic polynomials.

Bases: Polynomial

content()[source]#

Compute the content of this polynomial.

OUTPUT:

If this is the zero polynomial, return the constant coefficient. Otherwise, since the content is only defined up to a unit, return the content as \(\pi^k\) with maximal precision where \(k\) is the minimal valuation of any of the coefficients.

EXAMPLES:

sage: # needs sage.libs.ntl
sage: K = Zp(13,7)
sage: R.<t> = K[]
sage: f = 13^7*t^3 + K(169,4)*t - 13^4
sage: f.content()
13^2 + O(13^9)
sage: R(0).content()
0
sage: f = R(K(0,3)); f
O(13^3)
sage: f.content()
O(13^3)

sage: # needs sage.libs.ntl
sage: P.<x> = ZZ[]
sage: f = x + 2
sage: f.content()
1
sage: fp = f.change_ring(pAdicRing(2, 10))
sage: fp
(1 + O(2^10))*x + 2 + O(2^11)
sage: fp.content()
1 + O(2^10)
sage: (2*fp).content()
2 + O(2^11)
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> # needs sage.libs.ntl
>>> K = Zp(Integer(13),Integer(7))
>>> R = K['t']; (t,) = R._first_ngens(1)
>>> f = Integer(13)**Integer(7)*t**Integer(3) + K(Integer(169),Integer(4))*t - Integer(13)**Integer(4)
>>> f.content()
13^2 + O(13^9)
>>> R(Integer(0)).content()
0
>>> f = R(K(Integer(0),Integer(3))); f
O(13^3)
>>> f.content()
O(13^3)

>>> # needs sage.libs.ntl
>>> P = ZZ['x']; (x,) = P._first_ngens(1)
>>> f = x + Integer(2)
>>> f.content()
1
>>> fp = f.change_ring(pAdicRing(Integer(2), Integer(10)))
>>> fp
(1 + O(2^10))*x + 2 + O(2^11)
>>> fp.content()
1 + O(2^10)
>>> (Integer(2)*fp).content()
2 + O(2^11)

Over a field it would be sufficient to return only zero or one, as the content is only defined up to multiplication with a unit. However, we return \(\pi^k\) where \(k\) is the minimal valuation of any coefficient:

sage: # needs sage.libs.ntl
sage: K = Qp(13,7)
sage: R.<t> = K[]
sage: f = 13^7*t^3 + K(169,4)*t - 13^-4
sage: f.content()
13^-4 + O(13^3)
sage: f = R.zero()
sage: f.content()
0
sage: f = R(K(0,3))
sage: f.content()
O(13^3)
sage: f = 13*t^3 + K(0,1)*t
sage: f.content()
13 + O(13^8)
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> # needs sage.libs.ntl
>>> K = Qp(Integer(13),Integer(7))
>>> R = K['t']; (t,) = R._first_ngens(1)
>>> f = Integer(13)**Integer(7)*t**Integer(3) + K(Integer(169),Integer(4))*t - Integer(13)**-Integer(4)
>>> f.content()
13^-4 + O(13^3)
>>> f = R.zero()
>>> f.content()
0
>>> f = R(K(Integer(0),Integer(3)))
>>> f.content()
O(13^3)
>>> f = Integer(13)*t**Integer(3) + K(Integer(0),Integer(1))*t
>>> f.content()
13 + O(13^8)
factor()[source]#

Return the factorization of this polynomial.

EXAMPLES:

sage: # needs sage.libs.ntl
sage: R.<t> = PolynomialRing(Qp(3, 3, print_mode='terse', print_pos=False))
sage: pol = t^8 - 1
sage: for p,e in pol.factor():
....:     print("{} {}".format(e, p))
1 (1 + O(3^3))*t + 1 + O(3^3)

sage: R.<t> = PolynomialRing(Qp(5, 6, print_mode='terse', print_pos=False))
sage: pol = 100 * (5*t - 1) * (t - 5); pol
(500 + O(5^9))*t^2 + (-2600 + O(5^8))*t + 500 + O(5^9)
sage: pol.factor()
(500 + O(5^9)) * ((1 + O(5^5))*t - 1/5 + O(5^5)) * ((1 + O(5^6))*t - 5 + O(5^6))
sage: pol.factor().value()
(500 + O(5^8))*t^2 + (-2600 + O(5^8))*t + 500 + O(5^8)
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> # needs sage.libs.ntl
>>> R = PolynomialRing(Qp(Integer(3), Integer(3), print_mode='terse', print_pos=False), names=('t',)); (t,) = R._first_ngens(1)
>>> pol = t**Integer(8) - Integer(1)
>>> for p,e in pol.factor():
...     print("{} {}".format(e, p))
1 (1 + O(3^3))*t + 1 + O(3^3)
1 (1 + O(3^3))*t - 1 + O(3^3)
1 (1 + O(3^3))*t^2 + (5 + O(3^3))*t - 1 + O(3^3)
1 (1 + O(3^3))*t^2 + (-5 + O(3^3))*t - 1 + O(3^3)
1 (1 + O(3^3))*t^2 + O(3^3)*t + 1 + O(3^3)
>>> R = PolynomialRing(Qp(Integer(5), Integer(6), print_mode='terse', print_pos=False), names=('t',)); (t,) = R._first_ngens(1)
>>> pol = Integer(100) * (Integer(5)*t - Integer(1)) * (t - Integer(5)); pol
(500 + O(5^9))*t^2 + (-2600 + O(5^8))*t + 500 + O(5^9)
>>> pol.factor()
(500 + O(5^9)) * ((1 + O(5^5))*t - 1/5 + O(5^5)) * ((1 + O(5^6))*t - 5 + O(5^6))
>>> pol.factor().value()
(500 + O(5^8))*t^2 + (-2600 + O(5^8))*t + 500 + O(5^8)

The same factorization over \(\ZZ_p\). In this case, the “unit” part is a \(p\)-adic unit and the power of \(p\) is considered to be a factor:

sage: # needs sage.libs.ntl
sage: R.<t> = PolynomialRing(Zp(5, 6, print_mode='terse', print_pos=False))
sage: pol = 100 * (5*t - 1) * (t - 5); pol
(500 + O(5^9))*t^2 + (-2600 + O(5^8))*t + 500 + O(5^9)
sage: pol.factor()
(4 + O(5^6)) * (5 + O(5^7))^2 * ((1 + O(5^6))*t - 5 + O(5^6)) * ((5 + O(5^6))*t - 1 + O(5^6))
sage: pol.factor().value()
(500 + O(5^8))*t^2 + (-2600 + O(5^8))*t + 500 + O(5^8)
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> # needs sage.libs.ntl
>>> R = PolynomialRing(Zp(Integer(5), Integer(6), print_mode='terse', print_pos=False), names=('t',)); (t,) = R._first_ngens(1)
>>> pol = Integer(100) * (Integer(5)*t - Integer(1)) * (t - Integer(5)); pol
(500 + O(5^9))*t^2 + (-2600 + O(5^8))*t + 500 + O(5^9)
>>> pol.factor()
(4 + O(5^6)) * (5 + O(5^7))^2 * ((1 + O(5^6))*t - 5 + O(5^6)) * ((5 + O(5^6))*t - 1 + O(5^6))
>>> pol.factor().value()
(500 + O(5^8))*t^2 + (-2600 + O(5^8))*t + 500 + O(5^8)

In the following example, the discriminant is zero, so the \(p\)-adic factorization is not well defined:

sage: factor(t^2)                                                           # needs sage.libs.ntl
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
PrecisionError: p-adic factorization not well-defined since
the discriminant is zero up to the requestion p-adic precision
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> factor(t**Integer(2))                                                           # needs sage.libs.ntl
Traceback (most recent call last):
...

An example of factoring a constant polynomial (see Issue #26669):

sage: R.<x> = Qp(5)[]                                                       # needs sage.libs.ntl
sage: R(2).factor()                                                         # needs sage.libs.ntl
2 + O(5^20)
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> R = Qp(Integer(5))['x']; (x,) = R._first_ngens(1)# needs sage.libs.ntl
>>> R(Integer(2)).factor()                                                         # needs sage.libs.ntl
2 + O(5^20)

More examples over \(\ZZ_p\):

sage: R.<w> = PolynomialRing(Zp(5, prec=6, type='capped-abs', print_mode='val-unit'))
sage: f = w^5 - 1
sage: f.factor()                                                            # needs sage.libs.ntl

>>> f.factor()                                                            # needs sage.libs.ntl
