Abstract

Given an integral domain D and an indeterminate X over D, there exist many functionals mapping D[X]×D[X] into D that are similar to the resultant. If D is a Unique Factorization Domain, a specific functional, called the “minimal resultant”, could be useful in many places where a resultant would be required, and also for solving certain Diophantine Equations.
