The square-free approximation conjecture for integer polynomials
The square-free approximation conjecture for integer polynomials
Let be a polynomial of degree . A polynomial is square-free if it has no repeated irreducible factor over the rational numbers. Its length is
when .
Square-free approximation conjecture. For any of degree , there is a square-free polynomial of degree at most satisfying
This is a square-free variant of Turán's problem on approximating integer polynomials by irreducible polynomials. The conjecture asks for a uniform bound of while preserving an upper bound on the degree; its status is not resolved in the supplied source.
