Topic: Gauss Lemma and Eisenstein's Criterion
Aditya Agarwal (Nov 13 2018 at 00:02):
Is anyone working on Gauss Lemma and Eisenstein's Criterion or are they present in mathlib?
Kenny Lau (Nov 13 2018 at 00:02):
@Chris Hughes What do you think
Kevin Buzzard (Nov 13 2018 at 00:06):
I believe general UFDs are in mathlib nowadays, so anyone who implements them should probably do it in this generality.
Kevin Buzzard (Nov 13 2018 at 00:08):
although I guess Rob Lewis proved all the stuff about valuations for the integers when defining the p-adic numbers, and it might even be the case that the basic theory of valuations for a general UFD is not done (athough it might be a fairly simple port from Rob's work on Z)

@Aditya Agarwal Cool, I'm currently writing exercise sheets for 2nd year students who have to practice with Gauss Lemma and Eisenstein. It would be awesome if that lands in mathlib!

https://github.com/leanprover/mathlib/blob/master/data/padics/padic_norm.lean The first 370 or so lines of that file are the basics of the p-adic valuation on the integers and rationals. That should all be ported to a general UFD really, if one is to do this properly. One needs it in the proofs of such things as R a UFD -> R[X] a UFD.
