Divisibility Tests for Polynomials
Laudano, F.; Donatiello, A.
International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, v51 n3 p431-438 2020
We propose a divisibility criterion for elements of a generic Unique Factorization Domain. As a consequence, we obtain a general divisibility criterion for polynomials over Unique Factorization Domains. The arguments can be used in basic algebra courses and are suitable for building classroom/homework activities for college and high school students.
