... (a) Any nonzero element in R is either a unit or can be written as the product of a finite number of irreducible elements of R. (b) The decomposition in part (a) is unique up to the order and associates of the irreducible elements. Theorem 3.7.2 asserts that a Euclidean ring is a unique factorizatio ...

... It is easy to see that the set S of all Gaussian integers is a subring of C; specifically, S is the smallest subring containing {1, i}, whence S = Z[i]. Z[i] is a Euclidean ring, hence a principal ring, hence a unique factorization domain. There are four units (i.e. invertible elements) in the ring ...

... then F has at least one order P . Furthermore, x belongs to every possible order on F if and only if x is a sum of squares in F . 14 Artin then solved Hilbert’s 17th Problem – the answer is “yes”! He showed that if p(x1 , . . . , xn ) ≥ 0 for all x1 , . . . , xn and P is an order on R(x1 , . . . , x ...

Not every number in the list will be a zero of the function, but every rational zero of the polynomial function will appea ...
