canonical form of element of number field


TheoremMathworldPlanetmath.  Let ϑ be an algebraic numberMathworldPlanetmath of degree (http://planetmath.org/DegreeOfAnAlgebraicNumber) n.  Any element α of the algebraic number fieldMathworldPlanetmath (ϑ) may be uniquely expressed in the canonical form

α=c0+c1ϑ+c2ϑ2++cn-1ϑn-1(1)

where the numbers ci are rational.

Proof.  We start from the fact that (ϑ) consists of all expressions formed of ϑ and rational numbers using arithmetic operations (no divisorMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath (http://planetmath.org/Division) must vanish); such expressions lead always to the form

α=a(ϑ)b(ϑ)(2)

where the numerator and the denominator are polynomialsMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath in ϑ with rational coefficients (which can, in fact, be chosen integers).

So, let α in (2) an arbitrary element of the field (ϑ).  Denote by f(x) the minimal polynomial of ϑ over .  Since  b(ϑ)0,  the polynomial f(x) does not divide (http://planetmath.org/DivisibilityInRings) b(x), and since f(x) is irreduciblePlanetmathPlanetmath (http://planetmath.org/IrreduciblePolynomial2), the greatest common divisorMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath (http://planetmath.org/PolynomialRingOverFieldIsEuclideanDomain) of f(x) and b(x) is a constant polynomial, which can be normed to 1.  Thus there exist the polynomials φ(x) and ψ(x) of the ring [x] such that

φ(x)f(x)+ψ(x)b(x) 1.

Especially

φ(ϑ)f(ϑ)= 0+ψ(ϑ)b(ϑ)= 1,

whence

1b(ϑ)=ψ(ϑ)

and consequently

α=a(ϑ)b(ϑ)=a(ϑ)ψ(ϑ):=ψ1(ϑ).

Hence, α is a polynomial in ϑ with rational coefficients.

Let now

ψ1(x)=q(x)f(x)+r(x)  with deg(r)<deg(f)=n.

Denote

r(x):=c0+c1x++cn-1xn-1[x].

It follows that

α=r(ϑ)=c0+c1ϑ++cn-1ϑn-1,

whence (1) is true.

Suppose that we had also

α=s(ϑ)=d0+d1ϑ++dn-1ϑn-1

with every di rational.  This implies that

(cn-1-dn-1)ϑn-1++(c1-d1)ϑ+(c0-d0)= 0,

i.e. that ϑ satisfies the equation

(cn-1-dn-1)xn-1++(c1-d1)x+(c0-d0)= 0

with rational coefficients and degree less than n.  Because the degree of ϑ is n, it is possible only if all differencesPlanetmathPlanetmath ci-di vanish.  Thus

d0=c0,d1=c1,,dn-1=cn-1,

i.e. the (1) is unique.

Note 1.  The polynomial c0+c1x++cn-1xn-1 is called the canonical polynomial of the algebraic number α with respect to the primitive elementMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath (http://planetmath.org/SimpleFieldExtension) ϑ.

Note 2.  The theorem allows to denote the field (ϑ) similarly as polynomial rings:[ϑ].

Note 3.  When allowed, unlike in (1), higher powers of the primitive element ϑ (whose minimal polynomial is xn+a1xn-1++an), one may unlimitedly write different sum of α, e.g.

α=(c0+c1ϑ++cn-1ϑn-1)+(ϑn+a1ϑn-1++an)
=(c0+an)++(cn-1+a1)ϑn-1+ϑn.
