Content
There are several meanings of the word content in mathematics.
The content of a polytope or other
-dimensional object is its generalized volume (i.e., its "hypervolume"). Just as a three-dimensional object has volume, surface area, and generalized diameter, an
-dimensional object has "measures" of order 1, 2, ...,
. The content of a region can be computed in the Wolfram Language using RegionMeasure[reg].
The content of an integer polynomial
, denoted
, is the largest integer
such that
also has integer coefficients. Gauss's lemma for contents states that if
and
are two polynomials with integer coefficients, then
(Séroul 2000, p. 287).
For a general univariate polynomial
, the Wolfram Language command FactorTermsList[poly, x] returns a list of three elements, the first being the integer content
, the second being the polynomial content, i.e., a primitive (with respect to all variables) polynomial that does not depend on
and which divides all coefficients of
, and the third element being the primitive part of
. The original polynomial
is then the product of these three parts. For example, FactorTermsList[9E x^3+3E, x] returns
