Extracting polynomial factors from primitive quotient components #
An idempotent represented by E corresponds to the factor gcd(f,E-1).
Its multiples are exactly the polynomials annihilated by that component.
Primitive-component inverses therefore prove irreducibility without a Chinese
remainder construction or an enumeration of the quotient ring.
The factor supported by the component represented by E.

Instances For
An idempotent's supported factor describes its polynomial annihilator.
A primitive component of a quotient with bijective squaring yields a prime factor.
Irreducibility follows from the primitive-component primality criterion.
Every nonzero quotient modulus has a monic supported gcd factor.
Orthogonal components cannot share a nonunit supported factor.
A complete orthogonal primitive family reconstructs its monic quotient modulus.
The reconstruction theorem in the list representation used by the programs.
The quotient map reads coefficient bits by evaluation at its canonical root.
Canonical coordinate bits give a polynomial representative of the quotient element.
Canonical representatives of a primitive component family yield the complete factorization.
