GCD structures on polynomials

Definitions and basic results about polynomials over GCD domains, particularly their contents and primitive polynomials.

Main Definitions

Let p : R[X].

• p.content is the gcd of the coefficients of p.
• p.IsPrimitive indicates that p.content = 1.

Main Results

• Polynomial.content_mul: If p q : R[X], then (p * q).content = p.content * q.content.
• Polynomial.NormalizedGcdMonoid: The polynomial ring of a GCD domain is itself a GCD domain.
