Roots of cyclotomic polynomials.

We gather results about roots of cyclotomic polynomials. In particular we show in Polynomial.cyclotomic_eq_minpoly that cyclotomic n R is the minimal polynomial of a primitive root of unity.

Main results

• IsPrimitiveRoot.isRoot_cyclotomic : Any n-th primitive root of unity is a root of cyclotomic n R.
• isRoot_cyclotomic_iff : if NeZero (n : R), then μ is a root of cyclotomic n R if and only if μ is a primitive root of unity.
• Polynomial.cyclotomic_eq_minpoly : cyclotomic n ℤ is the minimal polynomial of a primitive n-th root of unity μ.
• Polynomial.cyclotomic.irreducible : cyclotomic n ℤ is irreducible.

Implementation details
