SubresultantPolynomials

SubresultantPolynomials[poly1,poly2,var]

generates a list of subresultant polynomials of the polynomials poly1 and poly2 with respect to the variable var.

SubresultantPolynomials[poly1,poly2,var,Modulusp]

computes the subresultant polynomials modulo the prime p.

Details and Options

  • SubresultantPolynomials require Exponent[poly1,var]Exponent[poly2,var].
  • SubresultantPolynomials returns a list whose length is Exponent[poly2,var]+1.
  • The first polynomial in the resulting list is Resultant[poly1,poly2,var].
