Class AlgebraicNumberField<E extends IUnivariatePolynomial<E>>

    • Constructor Detail

      • AlgebraicNumberField

        public AlgebraicNumberField​(E minimalPoly)
        Constructs a simple field extension F(α) generated by the algebraic number α with the specified minimal polynomial.

        NOTE: irreducibility test for the minimal polynomial is not performed here, use IrreduciblePolynomials.irreducibleQ(IUnivariatePolynomial) to test irreducibility.

        Parameters:
        minimalPoly - the minimal polynomial
