SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the factorization of the polynomial expression 216x²y² + 150x² + 6y² + 72xy² + 360x²y + 48xy + 40x + 8y + 7 using the Magma computational algebra system. Users reported that the expression is irreducible, as confirmed by the command Factorization(216*x^2*y^2 + 150*x^2 + 6*y^2 + 72*x*y^2 + 360*x^2*y + 48*x*y + 40*x + 8*y + 7). However, when modifying the expression to include a constant term of 2, a factorization was achieved, yielding 2(6xy + 5x + y + 1)(18xy + 15x + 3y + 1). The total computation time was consistently 0.140 seconds with a memory usage of 7.28MB.

is there any way to factorize larger expressions?
i, for example wanted to factorize-
216x2y2+150x2+6y2+72xy2+360x2y+48xy+40x+8y+7
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Magma says it's irreducible:
Code:
P<x,y> := PolynomialRing(IntegerRing(), 2);
Factorization(216*x^2*y^2+150*x^2+6*y^2+72*x*y^2+360*x^2*y+48*x*y+40*x+8*y+7);

[
    <216*x^2*y^2 + 360*x^2*y + 150*x^2 + 72*x*y^2 + 48*x*y + 40*x + 6*y^2 + 8*y 
        + 7, 1>
]

Total time: 0.140 seconds, Total memory usage: 7.28MB
 
i entered the code:
P<x,y> := PolynomialRing(IntegerRing(), 2);
Factorization(216*x^2*y^2+150*x^2+6*y^2+72*x*y^2+360*x^2*y+48*x*y+40*x+8*y+2);

[
<216*x^2*y^2 + 360*x^2*y + 150*x^2 + 72*x*y^2 + 48*x*y + 40*x + 6*y^2 + 8*y
+ 2, 1>
]
and got:
[
<2, 1>,
<108*x^2*y^2 + 180*x^2*y + 75*x^2 + 36*x*y^2 + 24*x*y + 20*x + 3*y^2 + 4*y +
1, 1>
]

+ 2, 1>
]

even tried to put a 3 beside the Integering()(if, that is for no. of factors), to get the same result. but i know,that the above expression is:
2(6xy+5x+y+1)(18xy+15x+3y+1)
how does this work?
 
Only the first two lines were input. The following lines were the output I got.
 
i entered:
P<x,y> := PolynomialRing(IntegerRing(), 2);
Factorization(216*x^2*y^2+150*x^2+6*y^2+72*x*y^2+360*x^2*y+48*x*y+40*x+8*y+2);
and got:
[
<2, 1>,
<108*x^2*y^2 + 180*x^2*y + 75*x^2 + 36*x*y^2 + 24*x*y + 20*x + 3*y^2 + 4*y +
1, 1>
]

Total time: 0.140 seconds, Total memory usage: 7.28MB
whereas above expressioon is:
2(6xy+5x+y+1)(18xy+15x+3y+1)
how does this work?
 
It doesnt, as i suspect you alredy knew.
 
are there more sites like the above mentioned magma?
