Irreducible polynomial

Dependencies:

  1. Polynomial

$p(x) \in R[x]-R$ is reducible in $R[x]$ iff $\exists a(x), b(x) \in R[x]-R$ such that $p(x) = a(x)b(x)$. A polynomial is irreducible iff it is not reducible.

Dependency for:

  1. Eisenstein's criterion
  2. The ideal generated by an irreducible polynomial is maximal
