摘要
Let (F) over tilde(q)[X] denote the multiplicative semigroups of monic polynomials in one indeterminate X, over a finite field F-q. We determine for each fixed q, the asymptotic average number of distinct degrees of the irreducible factors of a polynomial of degree n in (F) over tilde(q)[X]. The results are of relevance to various polynomial factorization algorithms. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
