Cyclotomic Polynomial - Examples

Examples

If n is a prime number then

If n=2p where p is an odd prime number then

For n up to 10 we have:

For n up to 20, the cyclotomic polynomials not covered by above formulas are:

The case of 105 is interesting because it is the first integer that is the product of three distinct odd prime numbers and the 105th cyclotomic polynomial is the first one that has coefficients of magnitude greater than 1:

\begin{align}
\Phi_{105}(x) = & \; x^{48} + x^{47} + x^{46} - x^{43} - x^{42} - 2 x^{41} - x^{40} - x^{39} + x^{36} + x^{35} + x^{34} \\
& {} + x^{33} + x^{32} + x^{31} - x^{28} - x^{26} - x^{24} - x^{22} - x^{20} + x^{17} + x^{16} + x^{15} \\
& {} + x^{14} + x^{13} + x^{12} - x^9 - x^8 - 2 x^7 - x^6 - x^5 + x^2 + x + 1
\end{align}

Famous quotes containing the word examples:

    There are many examples of women that have excelled in learning, and even in war, but this is no reason we should bring ‘em all up to Latin and Greek or else military discipline, instead of needle-work and housewifry.
    Bernard Mandeville (1670–1733)

    It is hardly to be believed how spiritual reflections when mixed with a little physics can hold people’s attention and give them a livelier idea of God than do the often ill-applied examples of his wrath.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    No rules exist, and examples are simply life-savers answering the appeals of rules making vain attempts to exist.
    André Breton (1896–1966)
