GCD in $\mathbb{F}_3[T]$ with powers of linear polynomials

This is a continuation of my previous question on $\gcd$s of polynomials of type $f^n - f$. Let us call $n > 1$ simple at a prime $p$ when $p-1 \mid n-1$ but $p^k - 1 \not\mid n-1$ for all $k > ...

Computer algebra programs that can solve polynomial systems on algebraically closed fields besides MAGMA

I was wondering which computer algebra programs out there can solve polynomial systems on the algebraic closure of $\mathbb{Q}$ analytically and efficiently. So far, I only found MAGMA with its ...

Greatest common divisor in $\mathbb{F}_p[T]$ with powers of linear polynomials

Let $n>1$ and $p$ be an odd prime with $p-1 \mid n-1$ such that $p^k - 1 \mid n-1$ does not hold for any $k>1$. Notice that, since $p-1 \mid n-1$, we have $T^p - T \mid T^n-T$ in $\mathbb{F}_p[T]...

Finding a characteristic for which the zero-locus of an ideal is not empty

I have a set of polynomials $f_1, \dots, f_m \in \mathbb{Z}[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ and I am interested in finding if these polynomials have a common root inside either $\mathbb{C}[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ or $\...

Algebraic independence criterion

Is there any criterion for checking algebraic independence of a set of polynomials in $n$ variables in terms of the leading monomials with respect to some monomial order ? The Jacobian criterion is ...

Is there an algorithm to decide if an ideal contains monomials?

Let $I\subset k[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ be an ideal in a polynomial ring in commuting variables. Is there a procedure to decide if $I$ contains a monomial and possibly to find one? Gröbner bases come to ...
