 Integer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The term rational integer is used, in algebraic number theory, to distinguish these 'ordinary' integers, in the rational numbers, from other concepts such as the Gaussian integers. The integer q is called the quotient and r is called the remainder, resulting from division of a by b. Integer datatypes are typically implemented using a fixed number of bits, and even variable-length representations eventually run out of storage space when trying to represent especially large numbers. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Integer   (800 words)

 Algebraic number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia If an algebraic number satisfies such an equation as given above with a polynomial of degree n and not such an equation with a lower degree, then the number is said to be an algebraic number of degree n. In fact, it is the smallest algebraically closed field containing the rationals, and is therefore called the algebraic closure of the rationals. The name algebraic integer comes from the fact that the only rational numbers which are algebraic integers are the integers, and because the algebraic integers in any number field are in many ways analogous to the integers. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Algebraic_number   (609 words)

 Algebraic Integers The degree of an algebraic number a is the minimal degree of a nonzero polynomial p(x) with integral coefficients having a as root. Algebraic integers are roots of a polynomial with integral coefficients and leading coefficient 1. Exercise An algebraic integer a of degree d is root of a polynomial with integral coefficients of degree d. www.win.tue.nl /~aeb/an/an.html   (584 words)

 Algebraic integer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In mathematics, an algebraic integer is an algebraic number that is a root of a monic polynomial (i.e. One may show that if P(x) is a non-monic primitive polynomial with integer coefficients that is irreducible over Q, then none of the roots of P are algebraic integers. In other words, the algebraic integers form a ring that is closed under the operation of extraction of roots. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Algebraic_integer   (200 words)

Last check: 2007-11-06) Waring's problem (representing a given integer as a sum of squares, cubes etc.), the Twin Prime Conjecture (finding infinitely many prime pairs with difference 2) and Goldbach's conjecture (writing even integers as sums of two primes) are being attacked with analytical methods as well. In algebraic number theory, the concept of number is expanded to the algebraic numbers which are roots of polynomials with rational coefficients. Algebraic geometry, especially the theory of elliptic curves, may also be employed. www.sevenhills.us /project/wikipedia/index.php/Number_theory   (1325 words)

 Algebraic number   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06) The sum, difference, product and quotient of two algebraic numbers is again algebraic, and the algebraic numbers therefore form a field. If K is a number field, its ring of integers is the subring of algebraic integers in K.

 Algebraic Number Theory   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06) An algebraic number of degree n is any root of a polynomial equation of degree n with integer coefficients that is not a root of any such equation of a lower degree. The ordinary rational number are algebraic integers of degree 1. Algebraic integers are also associated with Diophantine equations, Pell equations, and the studies of E E Kummer for that matter. www.risberg.ws /Hypertextbooks/Mathematics/Numbers/algebraic.htm   (93 words)

 [No title] An algebraic integer is any number that is the root of some polynomial equation with integer coefficients whose leading coefficient is 1. Moreover, if we fix a finite algebraic extension F of the rationals, the set of all algebraic integers lying in F forms a subring of F called the "ring of integers" of F. Rings of algebraic integers have many properties analogous to those of the usual integers. This is the case for the ordinary integers: for each integer n, the set of all multiples of n is an ideal, and these are all the ideals. www-math.mit.edu /~tchow/mathstuff/CFT   (1977 words)

Last check: 2007-11-06) This sense of the term arithmetic should not be confused with the branch of logic which studies arithmetic in the sense of formal systems. The virtue of the machinery employed -- Galois theory, field cohomology, class field theory, group representations and L-functions -- is that it allows to recover that order partly for this new class of numbers. The theory of numbers, a favorite study among the ancient Greeks, had its renaissance in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries in the labors of Viète, Bachet de Meziriac, and especially Fermat. encyclopedia.learnthis.info /n/nu/number_theory.html   (1115 words)

 [No title]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06) A polynomial in one variable with algebraic integer coefficients can be factored into a product of linear terms, each eith algebraic integer coefficients (although you may need to go to an extension of the splitting field to do it). QED Now, we can improve on your statement easily from this: every polynomial with algebraic coefficients may be written as a product of linear terms, each with algebraic integer coefficients, times a rational number. Therefore, there exists an integer c_i such that c_ia_i and c_ib_i are algebraic integers (find the one for a_i and the one for b_i, and take c_i to be their lcm). www.math.niu.edu /~rusin/known-math/01_incoming/alg_int   (462 words)

 Proof: Problem with algebraic integers   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06) It says that given two algebraic integers C and b, either C is coprime to b or else it is not coprime to b. Over a hundred years ago the ring of algebraic integers became a part of the mathematical lexicon, waiting until now for an intriguing problem with the ring to be revealed by the use of advanced polynomial factorization techniques, which work by using non-polynomial factors of a polynomial. Similarly, C is an algebraic integer, so as it is a factor of P(0), if it has a factor in common with b^2, then that factor gets divided off when b^2 is divided off of P(0). www.thehelparchive.com /new-2351441-277.html   (10722 words)

At any rate, it's evident that there are algebraic integer factors in common with q_1 and 2, and that those factors cannot be units in the ring of algebraic integers. With algebraic integers, it's a little more complicated as if x and y are irrational, and, get this, are roots of a non-monic quadratic with integer coefficients irreducible over rationals, then *apparently* both x and y must have factors in common with 2. www.thehelparchive.com /new-2305688-278.html   (19533 words)

 Math 662.602, Fall 2005 (Papanikolas) This course will be an introduction to the study of algebraic numbers and algebraic integers. Of course in number theory the key motivating problem is to understand the basic arithmetic of the integers. Algebraic number theory is the study of generalizations of integers to other domains, especially to number fields, ie, finite algebraic extensions of Q. Interesting problems arise in the study of rings of algebraic integers that shed light on many basic number theory problems. www.math.tamu.edu /~map/courses/662-fa05   (174 words)

 Fermat's Last Theorem for Quadratic Integers   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06) I don't know the answer to this question, but there are many solutions in the form A + B sqrt(d) for various rational (non- square) values of d. To help decide whether or not solutions exist for a particular exponent p (but not for the general case), it turns out that Kummer's methods of 1850 can be applied to arbitrary rings of algebraic integers (cf. (These are analogous to the "regular primes" in Kummer's theorem on FLT for rational integers, but of course we need to determine the set of regular primes for the particular algebraic ring in question.) I don't know if Wiles' general proof of FLT for rational integers covers any of these other algebraic rings. www.mathpages.com /home/kmath233.htm   (236 words)
