This development of univariate polynomials is separated into an -abstract development of rings and the development of polynomials -itself. The formalisation is based on [Jacobson1985], and polynomials -have a sparse, mathematical representation. These theories were -developed as a base for the integration of a computer algebra system -to Isabelle [Ballarin1999], and was designed to match implementations -of these domains in some typed computer algebra systems. Summary: - -
Rings: - Classes of rings are represented by axiomatic type classes. The - following are available: +
- ring: Commutative rings with one (including a summation - operator, which is needed for the polynomials) - domain: Integral domains - factorial: Factorial domains (divisor chain condition is missing) - pid: Principal ideal domains - field: Fields -- - Also, some facts about ring homomorphisms and ideals are mechanised. - -
Polynomials: - Polynomials have a natural, mathematical representation. Facts about - the following topics are provided: - -
+A development of univariate polynomials for HOL's ring classes
