CASA Function: NormalPolynomial

Calculate the "Normal Form" of a polynomial

Calling Sequence:

• P := NormalPolynomial(p,F)

Parameters:

p : expression

• An expression over the finite field F in Root-of Form.

F : casa/finite/field

• The finite field of the coefficients of p.

Result:

P : polynomial

• p expanded and collected in alpha-Form.

Description:

• Calculates alpha-Form of Root-of Form of a Polynomial.

Examples:

> F8:= finiteField(8);

> P := InPolynomial(alpha^2*x+alpha,F8);

> r := PolynomialRoots(P,F8);

> p := NormalPolynomial(P,F8);
