Let
be the prime Galois field consisting of just two elements.
For most integer values there is a minimum , with , such that the polynomial
is irreducible over the field . In Table 6 we display such pairs , for
. The cases in which there is no such are distinguished by making , in them any irreducible polynomial of degree shall involve more than one intermediate powers .
Whenever is irreducible, the Galois field
is isomorphic to the quotient
, and, consequently, the arithmetic in the field can be realized as the polynomial arithmetic reduced modulus . Each element in
is of the form
and is naturally identified with the integer
.
Table 6:
Pairs such that
is an irreducible polynomial over the field .
