Divisibility of $A(x,y)u(x)+B(x,y)v(x)$ by $y$












0












$begingroup$


Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero, $A=A(x,y),B=B(x,y) in k[x,y]$, $u=u(x), v=v(x) in k[x]$.
Assume that:




  • At least one of ${u,v}$ has degree $geq 1$.


  • $u$ and $v$ do not have common roots.


  • $y$ divides $Au+Bv$.



What can be said about such $A,B,u,v$? Should $y$ divide both $A$ and $B$?




My (partial) solution:
Write $A=a_ny^n+cdots+a_1y+a_0$, $B=b_my^m+cdots+b_1y+b_0$, where $a_i,b_j in k[x]$. By the third assumption, $y$ divides $Au+Bv=(a_ny^n+cdots+a_1y+a_0)u+(b_my^m+cdots+b_1y+b_0)v=(a_ny^n+cdots+a_1y)u+(b_my^m+cdots+b_1y)v+(a_0u+b_0v)
$



This shows that $y$ divides $a_0u+b_0v in k[x]$, so $a_0u+b_0v=0$.



The second assumption says that $u$ and $v$ are relatively prime, so $b_0=u tilde{u}$ and $a_0=v tilde{v}$, for some $tilde{u},tilde{v} in k[x]$.



Therefore, $A=a_ny^n+cdots+a_1y+ v tilde{v}$ and $B=b_my^m+cdots+b_1y+ u tilde{u}$.



Moreover, from $a_0u+b_0v=0$, we get that $v tilde{v}u+u tilde{u}v=0$,
so $vu(tilde{v}+tilde{u})=0$, which implies that $tilde{u}=-tilde{v}$.



Therefore, $A=a_ny^n+cdots+a_1y+ v tilde{v}$ and $B=b_my^m+cdots+b_1y- u tilde{v}$.





For example, $A=B=y$, $u=x+1$, $v=x$, so $Au+Bv=y(x+1)+yx=y(2x+1)$.



Non-examples,
$A=y+1$, $B=y-1$, $u=x+1$, $v=x$, so $Au+Bv=(y+1)(x+1)+(y-1)x=xy+y+x+1+xy-x=
2xy+y+1$
.



$A=y+1$, $B=y+1$, $u=x-1$, $v=x+1$, so $Au+Bv=(y+1)(x+1)+(y+1)(-x+1)=
xy+y+x+1-xy+y-x+1=2y+2$
.
