Let K be a field of characteristic p.
Suppose f(x)=(xk+ck-1xk-1+...+c0)(xp-k+...) in K[x] with 1≤k≤p-1.
My question is:
1. since f(x) in K[x], can I conclude g(x)=xk+ck-1xk+...+c0 in K[x] as well?
2. We see that in general if g(x)=xk+ck-1xk-1+...+c0 then ck-1=-(α1+α2+...+αk) where α1,α1,...,αk are the root of g(x).
Now if ck-1∈K, can I conclude that α1,α1,...,αk∈K as well?
very appreciated if someone could solve my confusion.
Thank you!
