Tarski-Seidenberg for strict inequalities and bounded quantification

This theorem says that quantifiers over real variables can be eliminated from classical first order formulae built from equations and inequalities between polynomials with rational coefficients, ie in ...

For which $n$ is this ring an euclidean domain?

Let $f_n(x)=x^n-\sum\limits_{i=0}^{n-1}{x^i}$ and $A_n$ the number field corresponding to $f_n$. Question: Is $A_n$ for all $n$ an euclidean domain? Is there a good choice for an euclidean function? ...

Deterministic procedure to find irreducible polynomials

In $\Bbb F_q[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ given $d_1,\dots,d_n\in\Bbb N$ is there a deterministic $O(poly(nd\log q))$ algorithm to find an irreducible polynomial with $d=\max_{i\in\{1,\dots,n\}}d_i$ and $d_i=deg(...

How to decide if an algebraic number is a root of a given polynomial?

Let $p$ be a polynomial with rational coefficients and $\alpha = \sqrt[n]{q}e^{i2k\pi/m}$ for some natural numbers $n,m,k$ and a rational number $q > 0$. Is there an effective algorithm for ...

Affine projection of polynomials for a given set of points

(Not sure this question fits here, I will remove it in case it doesn't) Let $F_{\mathrm{ML}}[x_1, \ldots,x_n]$ denote the set of multilinear polynomials over a finite field $F=\mathbb{F}_q$ (i.e. a ...

Primitive element theorem for algebraic functions

Given a function $f(x) : \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}$, we call it algebraic if it satisfies a polynomial equality $g(y, x) = 0$. This is analogous to an algebraic number being the root of a univariate ...

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 ...

Polynomial systems and algebraic functions

An algebraic function $y(x)$ is defined as the solution of a polynomial equation of the form $p(x,y)=0$, that is one making the identity $p(x,y(x))=0$ true --- in either analytical or formal power ...

Coefficient perturbations of polynomials with real roots only

Let \begin{align} P(x) &= x^n+a_{n-1} x^{n-1} +\ldots+a_0 = \prod_{i=1}^n (x-p_i)\\ Q(x) &= x^n + b_{n-1} x^{n-1} + \ldots +b_0 = \prod_{i=1}^n (x-q_i)\\ p_i, q_i& \in \mathbb{R},\ 0<...

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 ...
