(Algebraic Extension Field)
A class represents the algebraic extension field.
(none)
Algebra.AlgebraicExtensionField(field, obj){|x| ... }
Same as ::create.
::create(k, obj){|x| ... }
Returns the extension field k[x]/(p(x)) of the field k by the polynomial p(x) of the variable x, where obj represents the x.
The class methods ::var, ::def_polys and ::env_ring are defined for the return value.
Example: Create the field F extended by x**2 + x + 1 == 0
from Rational.
require "rational" require "polynomial" require "residue-class-ring" F = Algebra.AlgebraicExtensionField(Rational, "x") {|x| x**2 + x + 1} x = F.var p( (x-1)** 3 / (x**2 - 1) ) #=> -3x - 3
::var
Returns the residue class of x. This method is defined for the residue class ring, k[x]/(p(x)) which is the return value of ::create.
::modulus
Returns the element p(x) of k[x] . This method is defined for the residue class ring, k[x]/(p(x)) which is the return value of ::create.
::def_polys
Returns the array of ::modulus's of size n. Where self is defined recursively as the AlgebraicExtensionField of height n and base field k0. This method is defined for the residue class ring k[x]/(p(x)) which is the return value of ::create.
Example: Make the extension field of cubic roots of 2, 3, 5 over Rational.
require "algebra" # K0 == Rational K1 = AlgebraicExtensionField(Rational, "x1") { |x| x ** 3 - 2 } K2 = AlgebraicExtensionField(K1, "x2") { |y| y ** 3 - 3 } K3 = AlgebraicExtensionField(K2, "x3") { |z| z ** 3 - 5 } p K3.def_polys #=> [x1^3 - 2, x2^3 - 3, x3^3 - 5] x1, x2, x3 = K1.var, K2.var, K3.var f = x1**2 + 2*x2**2 + 3*x3**2 f0 = f.abs_lift p f0.type #=> (Polynomial/(Polynomial/(Polynomial/Rational))) p f0.type == K3.env_ring #=> true p f #=> 3x3^2 + 2x2^2 + x1^2 p f0.evaluate(x3.abs_lift, x2.abs_lift, x1.abs_lift) #=> x3^2 + 2x2^2 + 3x3^2
::env_ring
Returns the multi-variate polynomial ring k0[x1, x2,.., xn]. Where self is defined recursively as the AlgebraicExtensionField of height n and base field k0. This method is defined for the residue class ring k[x]/(p(x)) which is the return value of ::create.
::ground
Return the polnomial ring k[x] which is the ground ring of the residue class ring.
abs_lift
Returns the lift of self in ::env_ring. ( = k0[x1, x2,.., xn] ).
