let p(x) =x^n  −e^(inα)     with n integr and α fromR  1) find the roots of p(x)  2) factorize p(x) inside C[x] .

$${let}\:{p}\left({x}\right)\:={x}^{{n}} \:−{e}^{{in}\alpha} \:\:\:\:{with}\:{n}\:{integr}\:{and}\:\alpha\:{fromR} \\ $$$$\left.\mathrm{1}\right)\:{find}\:{the}\:{roots}\:{of}\:{p}\left({x}\right) \\ $$$$\left.\mathrm{2}\right)\:{factorize}\:{p}\left({x}\right)\:{inside}\:{C}\left[{x}\right]\:. \\ $$

changement x =e^(iα ) z give  p(x)=0 ⇔ e^(inα)  z^n  −e^(inα) =0 ⇔z^n −1 =0 ⇔  z_k =e^((i2kπ)/n)  and  k∈[[0,n−1]] so the roots of p(x)  are x_k =e^(iα)  e^(i((2kπ)/n))  =e^(i(((2kπ)/n) +α))   with 0≤k≤n−1  2) wehave  p(x) = Π_(k=0) ^(n−1) {x− e^(i(((2kπ)/n) +α)) }

$${changement}\:{x}\:={e}^{{i}\alpha\:} {z}\:{give} \\ $$$${p}\left({x}\right)=\mathrm{0}\:\Leftrightarrow\:{e}^{{in}\alpha} \:{z}^{{n}} \:−{e}^{{in}\alpha} =\mathrm{0}\:\Leftrightarrow{z}^{{n}} −\mathrm{1}\:=\mathrm{0}\:\Leftrightarrow \\ $$$${z}_{{k}} ={e}^{\frac{{i}\mathrm{2}{k}\pi}{{n}}} \:{and}\:\:{k}\in\left[\left[\mathrm{0},{n}−\mathrm{1}\right]\right]\:{so}\:{the}\:{roots}\:{of}\:{p}\left({x}\right) \\ $$$${are}\:{x}_{{k}} ={e}^{{i}\alpha} \:{e}^{{i}\frac{\mathrm{2}{k}\pi}{{n}}} \:={e}^{{i}\left(\frac{\mathrm{2}{k}\pi}{{n}}\:+\alpha\right)} \:\:{with}\:\mathrm{0}\leqslant{k}\leqslant{n}−\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\left.\mathrm{2}\right)\:{wehave}\:\:{p}\left({x}\right)\:=\:\prod_{{k}=\mathrm{0}} ^{{n}−\mathrm{1}} \left\{{x}−\:{e}^{{i}\left(\frac{\mathrm{2}{k}\pi}{{n}}\:+\alpha\right)} \right\} \\ $$
