Doubly distributive hyperfields satisfy the inheritance property
Doubly distributive hyperfields satisfy the inheritance property
Let be a polynomial, and let be its list of roots, including repetitions corresponding to multiplicities. A hyperfield has the inheritance property at if, for every subset with , there exists such that
It has the inheritance property in general if this holds for every polynomial .
Inheritance-property conjecture. All hyperfields with the doubly distributive property satisfy the inheritance property.
The inheritance property is introduced to address the non-uniqueness of polynomial factorisations over hyperfields, even for doubly distributive hyperfields. The paper presents this as an open direction needed to extend the field-theoretic factorisation arguments underlying its version of Kapranov's theorem.
