Polynomial expressions
The syntax for polynomial expressions is similar to integer expressions. The legal operators for polynomials, in order of increasing precedence, are given in the following table.
  • (polynomial division), (polynomial remainder)
  • unary operators
  • (both are exponentiation operators)
The polynomial division and remainder are done using the defined monomial order in the base ring. Parentheses are used to enforce groupings in an expression. The following remarks describe certain aspects of polynomial expressions.
  • Polynomials in Macaulay are output in an abbreviated notation: each polynomial is displayed as a number of monomials separated by ``+'' or ``-''. Each monomial is preceeded by its coefficient and each indeterminate is followed by its degree with no intervening blanks. Rational number coefficients are represented by x y . A polynomial which extends over a line boundary is displayed by using as the continuation character. If you wish to have polynomials output in Mathematica format, use the prmat command.

There is a command called Synthetic that returns the quotient of one polynomial by another (with rational coefficients) together with the remainder part.
    There are also several programs that support exploration. These are: Divide(num,den) returns the same result that synthetic would. This result can then be used by another command (for example, to define a function and draw its graph). Pquotient and Premainder returns the results (quotient and remainder) from the Euclidean algorithm. Finally, GCD returns the greatest common divisor of two rational polynomials.

    66. The Cyclic Redundancy Check
    The presentation of the CRC is based on two simple but not quite everyday bitsof mathematics polynomial division. polynomial division isn't too bad either.
    http://www.cs.jhu.edu/~scheideler/courses/600.344_S02/CRC.html
    The Cyclic Redundancy Check
    Taken from lecture notes by Otfried Schwarzkopf, Williams College.
  • A significant role of the Data Link layer is to convert the potentially unreliable physical link between two machines into an apparently very reliable link.
  • This is done by including redundant information in each transmitted frame. Depending on the nature of the link and the data one can either:
    • include just enough redundancy to make it possible to detect errors and then arrange for the retransmission of damaged frames, or
    • include enough redundancy to enable the receiver to correct any errors produced during transmission.
    Most current networks take the former approach.
  • One widely used parity bit based error detection scheme is the cyclic redundancy check or CRC.
    • The CRC is based on some fairly impressive looking mathematics. It is helpful as you deal with its mathematical description that you recall that it is ultimately just a way to use parity bits.
    • The presentation of the CRC is based on two simple but not quite "everyday" bits of mathematics:
      • polynomial division
      • arithmetic over the field of integers mod 2.

    The function is an autocorrelation function. It is symmetrical about the ``4'' and its Fourier transform is positive for all frequencies. Digging out an old textbook Claerbout (1976) , we discover how to compute a causal wavelet with this autocorrelation. I used the ``Kolmogoroff spectral-factorization method'' to find this wavelet Wind the signal around a vertical-axis helix to see its two-dimensional shape This 2-D filter is is the negative of the finite-difference representation of the negative of the Laplacian operator, generally denoted .Now wind the signal around the same helix to see its two-dimensional shape In the 2-D representation ( ) we see the coefficients diminishing rapidly away from maximum value 1.791. My claim is that the 2-D autocorrelation of ( ) is ( ). You verified this idea at the beginning of this paper where the numbers were all ones. You can check it again in a few moments if you drop the small values, say 0.2 and smaller. Since the autocorrelation of is is a second derivative, the operator

    File Verification Using the CRC
    by Mark Nelson
    Recently I have found myself thinking a lot about file verification. By file verification, I mean the process of determining whether a file on my computer has been modified unexpectedly. Whether it happened through hardware failure, program error, or malicious tampering, I like to know when a file has had its contents altered. Likewise, I would like a convenient way to check the integrity of a file to verify that it hasn't been changed. The problem of file integrity has been on my mind because of several nearly simultaneous incidents. First of all, I recently ran dozens of relatively untested programs through my home systems while I was judging the Dr. Dobb's Data Compression Contest. At least two of these programs caused inadvertent damage to the file systems on my computer, one under UNIX and one under MS-DOS. In both cases, I was able to spot a lot of the damage, but after I restored the data that looked bad, I was left feeling unsure about the rest of my system. Had other files been damaged in more subtle ways? I suddenly felt as though I couldn't trust my system. An even more alarming incident occurred a couple of weeks later. A programmer who supplies us with a product for resale called us up and casually mentioned that his office had been infested with the notorious "Stoned" virus. Had we by any chance noticed anything funny in oursystems? We see funny things on our systems on an hourly basis, sosuddenly we were once again in the position of not trusting any of the files on our computers. (Fortunately this turned out to be a false alarm).

    3.3 - Real Zeros of Polynomial Functions
    Long Division of Polynomials
    You were taught long division of polynomials in Intermediate Algebra. Basically, the procedure is carried out like long division of real numbers. The procedure is explained in the textbook if you're not familiar with it. One key point about division, and this works for real numbers as well as for polynomial division, needs to be pointed out. When you divide the dividend by the divisor, you get a quotient and a remainder. To check the problem, you multiply the divisor by the quotient and add the remainder to get the dividend. If the remainder is 0, then we say that the divisor divides evenly into the dividend. Like I said, the same thing can be done with polynomial functions. f(x) = d(x) * q(x) + r(x) Where f(x) is the polynomial function being divided into (dividend), d(x) is the polynomial function being divided by (divisor), q(x) is the polynomial function that is the quotient, and r(x) is the polynomial remainder function and will have degree less than the divisor. If the remainder, r(x), is zero, then f(x) = d(x)*q(x). We have just factored the function f(x) into two factors, d(x) and q(x).

Next DIVISION OF A POLYNOMIAL BY A MONOMIAL Division, like multiplication, may be distributive. Consider, for example, the problem 2, which may be solved by adding the numbers within the parentheses and then dividing the total by 2. Thus, Now notice that the problem may also-be solved distributively. CAUTION: Do not confuse problems of the type just described with another type which is similar in appearance but not in final result. For example, in a problem such as 2 the beginner is tempted to divide 2 successively by 4, then 6, and then -2, as follows: Notice that we have canceled the "equals" sign, because 2 + 8 is obviously not equal to 1/2 + 2/6. - 1. The distributive method applies only in those cases in which several different numerators are to be used with the same denominator When literal numbers are present in an expression, the distributive method must be used, as in the following two problems: Quite often this division may be done mentally, and the intermediate steps need not be
