abstract

By the Chinese remainder theorem, the canonical map \[\Psi_n: R[X]/(X^n-1)\to \oplus_{d|n} R[X]/\Phi_d(X)\] is an isomorphism when $R$ is a field whose characteristic does not divide $n$ and $\Phi_d$ is the $d$th cyclotomic polynomial. When $R$ is the ring $\mathbf{Z}$ of rational integers, this map is injective but not surjective. In this paper, we give an explicit formula for the elementary divisors of the cokernel of $\Psi_n$(when $R=\mathbb{Z}$) using the prime factorisation of $n$. We also give a pictorial algorithm using Young Tableaux that takes $O(n^{3+\epsilon})$ bit operations for any $\epsilon > 0$ to determine a basis of Smith vectors (see Definition 3.1) for the codomain of $\Psi_n$. In general when $R$ is an integral domain, we prove that the determinant of $\Psi : R[X]/(\prod_j f_j) \to \bigoplus_j R[X]/(f_j)$ written with respect to the standard basis is $\prod_{1 \leqslant i < j \leqslant n} \mathcal{R}(f_j, f_i)$, where $f_i$'s are pairwise relatively prime monic polynomials and $\mathcal{R}(f_j, f_i)$ is the resultant of $f_j$ and $f_i$.
