Primes and irreducible polynomials
Abstract
In 2002, M.Ram Murty showed that if p is a prime with k-adic expansion :p = Σi = 0n ai ki , then the polynomial f(x) = Σi = 0n aixi is irreducible in Z[x].When k = 10 , it's a result of A.Cohn. I think this kind of polynomials is really interesting and worse to speak more. So I plan to find more conclusions about this kind of polynomials. In the first section of this article, author proves a stronger version of this theorem that if we multiply prime p by a factor t that is smaller than k ,the conclusion also holds. In the second section, author further consider larger multiplier t ,and gives a technique to control one of the factors of the polynomial.
