D.4.30.2 primitive_extra

Procedure from library primitiv.lib (see primitiv_lib).

Usage:
primitive_extra(i); i ideal

Assume:
The ground field of the basering is k=Q or k=Z/pZ and the ideal i is given by 2 generators f,g with the following properties:
 
   f is the minimal polynomial of a in k[x],
   g is a polynomial in k[x,y] s.th. g(a,y) is the minpoly of b in k(a)[y].
Here, x is the name of the first ring variable, y the name of the second.

Return:
ideal j in k[y] such that
 
   j[1] is the minimal polynomial for a primitive element c of k(a,b) over k,
   j[2] is a polynomial s.th. j[2](c)=a.

Note:
While primitive(i) may fail for finite fields, primitive_extra(i) tries all elements of k(a,b) and, hence, always finds a primitive element.
In order to do this (try all elements), field extensions like Z/pZ(a) are not allowed for the ground field k.
primitive_extra(i) assumes that the second generator, g, is monic as polynomial in (k[x])[y].

Example:
 
LIB "primitiv.lib";
ring exring=3,(x,y),dp;
ideal i=x2+1,y3+y2-1;
primitive_extra(i);
==> _[1]=y6-y5+y4-y3-y-1
==> _[2]=y5+y4+y2+y+1
ring extension=(3,y),x,dp;
minpoly=y6-y5+y4-y3-y-1;
number a=y5+y4+y2+y+1;
a^2;
==> -1
factorize(x2+1);
==> [1]:
==>    _[1]=1
==>    _[2]=x+(y5+y4+y2+y+1)
==>    _[3]=x+(-y5-y4-y2-y-1)
==> [2]:
==>    1,1,1
factorize(x3+x2-1);
==> [1]:
==>    _[1]=1
==>    _[2]=x+(y3+y+1)
==>    _[3]=x+(y5+y4+y2+1)
==>    _[4]=x+(-y5-y4-y3-y2-y-1)
==> [2]:
==>    1,1,1,1
