Euclidean domains #
This file introduces Euclidean domains and provides the extended Euclidean algorithm. To be precise,
a slightly more general version is provided which is sometimes called a transfinite Euclidean domain
and differs in the fact that the degree function need not take values in ℕ
but can take values in
any well-ordered set. Transfinite Euclidean domains were introduced by Motzkin and examples which
don't satisfy the classical notion were provided independently by Hiblot and Nagata.

Notation #
≺
denotes the well founded relation on the Euclidean domain, e.g. in the example of the polynomial
ring over a field, p ≺ q
for polynomials p
and q
if and only if the degree of p
is less than
the degree of q
.
Implementation details #
Instead of working with a valuation, euclidean_domain
is implemented with the existence of a well
founded relation r
on the integral domain R
, which in the example of ℤ
would correspond to
setting i ≺ j
for integers i
and j
if the absolute value of i
is smaller than the absolute
value of j
.

A euclidean_domain
is an non-trivial commutative ring with a division and a remainder,
satisfying b * (a / b) + a % b = a
.
The definition of a euclidean domain usually includes a valuation function R → ℕ
.
This definition is slightly generalised to include a well founded relation
r
with the property that r (a % b) b
, instead of a valuation.
Equations
- euclidean_domain.has_div = {div := euclidean_domain.quotient _inst_1}
Equations
- euclidean_domain.has_mod = {mod := euclidean_domain.remainder _inst_1}
gcd a b
is a (non-unique) element such that gcd a b ∣ a
gcd a b ∣ b
, and for
any element c
such that c ∣ a
and c ∣ b
, then c ∣ gcd a b

An implementation of the extended GCD algorithm.
At each step we are computing a triple (r, s, t)
, where r
is the next value of the GCD
algorithm, to compute the greatest common divisor of the input (say x
and y
), and s
and t
are the coefficients in front of x
and y
to obtain r
(i.e. r = s * x + t * y
).
The function xgcd_aux
takes in two triples, and from these recursively computes the next triple:
xgcd_aux (r, s, t) (r', s', t') = xgcd_aux (r' % r, s' - (r' / r) * s, t' - (r' / r) * t) (r, s, t)
Use the extended GCD algorithm to generate the a
and b
values
satisfying gcd x y = x * a + y * b
.
