explicit definition of polynomial rings in arbitrarly many variables


Let R be a ring and let 𝕏 be any set (possibly empty). We wish to give an explicit and formal definition of the polynomial ringMathworldPlanetmath R[𝕏].

We start with the set

(𝕏)={f:𝕏|f(x)=0 for almost all x}.

If 𝕏={X1,,Xn} then the elements of (𝕏) can be interpreted as monomialsMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath

X1α1Xnαn.

Now define

R[𝕏]={F:(𝕏)R|F(f)=0 for almost all f}.

The additionPlanetmathPlanetmath in R[𝕏] is defined as pointwise addition.

Now we will define multiplication. First note that we have a multiplication on (𝕏). For any f,g:𝕏 put

(fg)(x)=f(x)+g(x).

This is the same as multiplying xaxb=xa+b.

Now for any f(𝕏) define

M(h)={(f,g)(𝕏)2|h=fg},

Now if F,GR[𝕏] then we define the multiplication

FG:(𝕏)R

by putting

(FG)(h)=(f,g))M(h)F(f)G(g).

Note that all of this well-defined, since both F and G vanish almost everywhere.

It can be shown that R[𝕏] with these operationsMathworldPlanetmath is a ring, even an R-algebraMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath. This algebra is commutativePlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath if and only if R is. Furthermore we have an algebra homomorphism

E:RR[𝕏]

which is defined as follows: for any rR let Fr:(𝕏)R be the function such that if f:𝕏 is such that f(x)=0 for any x𝕏, then put Fr(f)=r and for any other function f(𝕏) put Fr(f)=0. Then

E(r)=Fr

is our function, which is a monomorphismMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath. Furthermore if R is unital with the identityPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath 1, then

E(1)

is the identity in R[𝕏]. Anyway we can always interpret R as a subset of R[𝕏] if put r=Fr for rR.

Note, that if 𝕏=, then R[] is still defined and E:RR[𝕏] is an isomorphismMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath of rings (it is ,,onto”). Actually these two conditions are equivalentMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath.

Also note, that 𝕏 itself can be interpreted as a subset of R[𝕏]. Indeed, for any x𝕏 define

fx:𝕏

by fx(x)=1 and fx(y)=0 for any yx. Then define

Fx:(𝕏)R

by putting Fx(fx)=1 and Fx(f)=0 for any ffx. It can be easily seen that Fx=Fy if and only if x=y. Thus we will use convention x=Fx.

With these notations (i.e. R,𝕏R[𝕏]) we have that elements of R[𝕏] are exactly polynomialsMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath in the set of variables 𝕏 with coefficients in R.
