irreducibility of polynomial over field of rational functions












0












$begingroup$


Here



This is an exercise from Dummit and Foote where the following hint is also given : $mathbf{(K[X])(Y)=(K[Y])(X)}$.
Does this mean that we can consider our polynomial over $mathbf K[Y]$ with variable X now which will imply that it is irreducible being a linear polynomial and hence irreducible in the required field $mathbf K(X)$? If I have misunderstood please guide me through the next step.

    Like egreg says in his answer. We can apply the Gauss Lemma to the polynomial ring $R[Y]$, because $R=K[X]$ is a PID, since $K$ is a field. If you want, rename $R[Y]$ to $R[x]$, if this looks more familiar to you.

    @DietrichBurde Yes I understand that Gauss Lemma can be applied but how to proceed further in order to conclude its irreducibilty. Gauss Lemma only says irreducibility in one implies irreducibility in another. I am sure I'm missing something trivial.

    @DietrichBurde In another answer it is given that we have to use the fact that P and Q are relatively prime in order to show that the linear polynomial in X is irreducible as K[Y] is not a field. But how do I use it?
