A. Mathematical Operations on Polynomials
A polynomial can be seen as a vector of coefficients where $a_i$ corresponds to the coefficient of $x^i$. For example, $P(x) = 3x^2 + 2x + 1$ corresponds to the vector $[1, 2, 3]$.
## Addition and Subtraction
Given two polynomials $P(x) = \sum_{i=0}^n a_ix^i$ and $Q(x) = \sum_{i=0}^m b_ix^i$, their sum is $R(x) = P(x) + Q(x) = \sum_{i=0}^{\max(n,m)} (a_i + b_i) x^i$ (with $a_i=0$ for $i>n$ and $b_i=0$ for $i>m$).
Similarly, their difference is $R(x) = P(x) - Q(x) = \sum_{i=0}^{\max(n,m)} (a_i - b_i) x^i$.
Addition and subtraction are linear time operations $O(\max(n,m))$ if we use vectors to store coefficients.
## Multiplication
Given two polynomials $P(x) = \sum_{i=0}^n a_ix^i$ and $Q(x) = \sum_{i=0}^m b_ix^i$, their product is $R(x) = P(x) Q(x) = \sum_{k=0}^{n+m} c_k x^k$, where $c_k = \sum_{i=0}^k a_i b_{k-i}$ (with $a_i=0$ for $i>n$ and $b_j=0$ for $j>m$). This is the definition of the convolution of the coefficient vectors.
A naive approach to compute the product $R(x)$ is to compute each $c_k$ using the sum formula. This takes $O(k)$ time for each $c_k$, and since there are $n+m+1$ coefficients, the total time is $O((n+m)^2) = O(N^2)$ where $N = \max(n,m)$.
A faster approach uses the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and its inverse (IDFT). The DFT transforms a sequence of numbers into its frequency domain representation. The property that makes it useful for polynomial multiplication is the Convolution Theorem, which states that the DFT of a convolution is the product of the DFTs.
Specifically, if $P$ and $Q$ are polynomials of degree at most $N$, padded with zeros to degree $2N$, then the coefficients of $P(x)Q(x)$ are the convolution of the coefficients of $P$ and $Q$. Let $A$ be the vector of coefficients of $P$ and $B$ be the vector of coefficients of $Q$, both of length $2N+1$. The coefficient vector $C$ of $P(x)Q(x)$ is the convolution $A * B$.
The Convolution Theorem states: $\text{DFT}(A * B) = \text{DFT}(A) \odot \text{DFT}(B)$, where $\odot$ denotes element-wise product.
Thus, $A * B = \text{IDFT}(\text{DFT}(A) \odot \text{DFT}(B))$.
The steps for polynomial multiplication using DFT are:
1. Pad the coefficient vectors $A$ (for $P(x)$) and $B$ (for $Q(x)$) with zeros so that their length is $N' \ge n+m+1$ and $N'$ is a power of 2. A common choice is the smallest power of 2 greater than $n+m$. Let $N' = 2^k$ where $2^k \ge n+m+1$. Pad $A$ and $B$ to length $N'$.
2. Compute the DFT of $A$ and $B$ to get $A'$ and $B'$. This takes $O(N' \log N')$ time using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm.
3. Compute the element-wise product $C' = A' \odot B'$. This takes $O(N')$ time.
4. Compute the IDFT of $C'$ to get the coefficient vector $C$ of the product polynomial $R(x)$. This also takes $O(N' \log N')$ time using FFT.
The overall time complexity for polynomial multiplication using FFT is $O(N \log N)$ where $N = \max(n,m)$.
## Division
Polynomial division involves finding polynomials $Q(x)$ (quotient) and $R(x)$ (remainder) such that $P(x) = D(x) Q(x) + R(x)$, where $\deg(R) < \deg(D)$.
Let $P(x) = \sum_{i=0}^n a_ix^i$ and $D(x) = \sum_{i=0}^m b_ix^i$, with $b_m \ne 0$ and $n \ge m$.
We want to find $Q(x) = \sum_{i=0}^{n-m} q_ix^i$ and $R(x) = \sum_{i=0}^{m-1} r_ix^i$.
A naive polynomial division algorithm is similar to long division for numbers, taking $O(n(n-m))$ or $O(n^2)$ time in the worst case ($\deg(Q)$ is close to $\deg(P)$).
Faster algorithms for polynomial division exist that use FFT. Let $P(x)$ have degree $n$ and $D(x)$ have degree $m$, with $n \ge m$.
Define the reciprocal polynomial $P^*(x)$ of $P(x)$ (with $a_0 \ne 0$) as $P^*(x) = x^n P(1/x) = \sum_{i=0}^n a_{n-i}x^i$. The coefficients are reversed.
If $P(x) = D(x) Q(x) + R(x)$, then $P(1/x) = D(1/x) Q(1/x) + R(1/x)$.
Multiplying by $x^n$: $x^n P(1/x) = x^n D(1/x) Q(1/x) + x^n R(1/x)$.
$P^*(x) = x^{n-m} D^*(x) Q^*(x) + x^{n-m} R^*(x)$.
Note that $\deg(Q^*) = \deg(Q) = n-m$, $\deg(D^*) = m$, $\deg(R^*) \le \deg(R) < m$.
Let's consider the division of $P^*(x)$ by $D^*(x)$ in the ring of power series $K[[x]]$.
In $K[[x]]$, if a polynomial $A(x)$ has $A(0) \ne 0$, it has a multiplicative inverse $A^{-1}(x)$.
Assume $D(0) \ne 0$. Then $D^*(x) = x^m D(1/x)$ will have the leading coefficient $b_m$ at $x^m$. If $b_0 \ne 0$, then $D^*(0) = b_m \ne 0$ is not generally true.
We use a different definition for reciprocal polynomial: $P^{rev}(x) = x^n P(1/x)$ if $P(0) \ne 0$. If $P(0)=0$, we can work with $P(x)/x^k$ where $x^k$ is the highest power of $x$ dividing $P(x)$.
A more common approach for FFT-based division involves using polynomial inversion modulo $x^k$.
To find $Q(x)$ such that $P(x) = D(x)Q(x) + R(x)$, with $\deg(R) < m$:
Let $n = \deg(P)$ and $m = \deg(D)$. Assume $n \ge m$.
Consider the identity in terms of reciprocal polynomials based on reversing coefficients up to degree $n$:
$P^{rev}(x) = D^{rev}(x) Q^{rev}(x) + x^{n-m+1} R^{rev}(x)$.
Here $P^{rev}(x) = x^n P(1/x)$, $D^{rev}(x) = x^m D(1/x)$, $Q^{rev}(x) = x^{n-m} Q(1/x)$, $R^{rev}(x) = x^{m-1} R(1/x)$.
$x^n P(1/x) = (x^m D(1/x)) (x^{n-m} Q(1/x)) + x^{n-m+1} (x^{m-1} R(1/x))$
$x^n P(1/x) = x^n D(1/x) Q(1/x) + x^n R(1/x)$. This is the same identity, just using different definitions of reversal which makes the powers of $x$ align differently.
Let $P^{rev}_k(x) = x^{k-1} P(1/x) \pmod{x^k}$.
The key idea is that $Q(x)$ is determined by $P(x)$ and $D(x)$ up to degree $n-m$. The coefficients of $Q(x)$ are the higher-order coefficients of $P(x)/D(x)$.
Consider $P(x)/D(x) = Q(x) + R(x)/D(x)$. The quotient polynomial $Q(x)$ consists of terms with powers of $x$ from $x^0$ up to $x^{n-m}$. The term $R(x)/D(x)$ contains terms with negative powers of $x$ when expanded as a power series.
Let's use the relation: $P(x) = D(x) Q(x) + R(x)$.
Consider the reciprocal polynomials $P^{rev}(y) = y^n P(1/y)$ and $D^{rev}(y) = y^m D(1/y)$.
Substituting $x=1/y$: $P(1/y) = D(1/y) Q(1/y) + R(1/y)$.
Multiply by $y^n$: $y^n P(1/y) = y^n D(1/y) Q(1/y) + y^n R(1/y)$.
$P^{rev}(y) = y^{n-m} (y^m D(1/y)) Q(1/y) + y^n R(1/y)$
$P^{rev}(y) = y^{n-m} D^{rev}(y) Q(1/y) + y^n R(1/y)$.
Note that $Q(1/y)$ has terms $q_0 + q_1/y + \dots + q_{n-m}/y^{n-m}$.
$y^{n-m} Q(1/y) = q_0 y^{n-m} + q_1 y^{n-m-1} + \dots + q_{n-m}$.
This is the reciprocal polynomial of $Q(x)$, let's call it $Q^{rev_{n-m}}(y) = y^{n-m}Q(1/y)$.
So, $P^{rev}(y) = D^{rev}(y) Q^{rev_{n-m}}(y) + y^n R(1/y)$.
The coefficients of $Q^{rev_{n-m}}(y)$ are the coefficients of $Q(x)$ in reversed order.
The term $y^n R(1/y) = y^n (r_0 + r_1/y + \dots + r_{m-1}/y^{m-1}) = r_0 y^n + r_1 y^{n-1} + \dots + r_{m-1} y^{n-m+1}$.
This term contains powers of $y$ from $n-m+1$ to $n$.
Consider the equation modulo $y^{n-m+1}$:
$P^{rev}(y) \equiv D^{rev}(y) Q^{rev_{n-m}}(y) \pmod{y^{n-m+1}}$.
This gives us a way to find $Q^{rev_{n-m}}(y)$. If we can compute the inverse of $D^{rev}(y)$ modulo $y^{n-m+1}$, denoted by $(D^{rev}(y))^{-1} \pmod{y^{n-m+1}}$, we can find $Q^{rev_{n-m}}(y)$:
$Q^{rev_{n-m}}(y) \equiv P^{rev}(y) (D^{rev}(y))^{-1} \pmod{y^{n-m+1}}$.
Let $k = n-m+1$. We need to compute $P^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k}$ and $(D^{rev}(y))^{-1} \pmod{y^k}$.
$P^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k}$ consists of the coefficients of $P^{rev}(y)$ up to degree $k-1$. These are $a_n, a_{n-1}, \dots, a_{n-(k-1)} = a_{m-1}$. So, $P^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k} = \sum_{i=0}^{k-1} a_{n-i} y^i$.
$D^{rev}(y) = y^m D(1/y) = y^m (b_0 + b_1/y + \dots + b_m/y^m) = b_0 y^m + b_1 y^{m-1} + \dots + b_m$.
Since we assumed $n \ge m$, the leading coefficient of $D(x)$, $b_m$, is non-zero. The constant term of $D^{rev}(y)$ is $b_m$. Since $b_m \ne 0$, $D^{rev}(y)$ has a power series inverse.
We need $(D^{rev}(y))^{-1} \pmod{y^k}$. This can be computed using Newton's method for polynomial inversion modulo $y^k$.
Let $A(y) = D^{rev}(y)$. We want $A^{-1}(y) \pmod{y^k}$.
We can compute the inverse iteratively. If we have $B(y) \equiv A^{-1}(y) \pmod{y^j}$, we can find $B'(y) \equiv A^{-1}(y) \pmod{y^{2j}}$ using the formula:
$B'(y) \equiv B(y) (2 - A(y) B(y)) \pmod{y^{2j}}$.
This process starts with the inverse modulo $y^1$ (which is $1/A(0)$) and doubles the modulus size in each step until $y^k$ is reached. The number of steps is $O(\log k)$. Each step involves polynomial multiplication modulo $y^{2j}$, which takes $O(2j \log(2j))$ using FFT. The total time for inversion modulo $y^k$ is $O(k \log k)$.
So, the steps for FFT-based polynomial division (finding $Q(x)$):
1. Let $k = n-m+1$.
2. Compute $P^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k}$. This involves taking the top $k$ coefficients of $P(x)$ ($a_n, a_{n-1}, \dots, a_{n-k+1}$) and forming a polynomial of degree $k-1$. $P^{rev}_k(y) = \sum_{i=0}^{k-1} a_{n-i} y^i$.
3. Compute $D^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k}$. This involves taking the top $k$ coefficients of $D(x)$ ($b_m, b_{m-1}, \dots, b_{m-k+1}$) and forming a polynomial of degree $k-1$. $D^{rev}_k(y) = \sum_{i=0}^{k-1} b_{m-i} y^i$.
4. Compute $(D^{rev}_k(y))^{-1} \pmod{y^k}$ using Newton's method with FFT-based multiplication. This takes $O(k \log k)$.
5. Compute $Q^{rev_{n-m}}(y) \equiv P^{rev}_k(y) \cdot (D^{rev}_k(y))^{-1} \pmod{y^k}$ using FFT-based multiplication. This also takes $O(k \log k)$.
6. The coefficients of $Q^{rev_{n-m}}(y)$ are the coefficients of $Q(x)$ in reverse order. Extract these $n-m+1$ coefficients and reverse them to get $Q(x)$.
The degree of $Q(x)$ is $n-m$, so it has $n-m+1$ coefficients. $Q^{rev_{n-m}}(y)$ should be computed modulo $y^{n-m+1}$, so $k=n-m+1$.
The total time for finding $Q(x)$ is $O((n-m) \log (n-m))$. If $n \approx 2m$, this is $O(n \log n)$. If $n \approx m$, this is $O(m \log m)$. In general, it's $O((n-m)\log(n-m))$ which simplifies to $O(n \log n)$ when $n-m$ is significant.
To find the remainder $R(x)$:
Once $Q(x)$ is computed, $R(x) = P(x) - D(x) Q(x)$.
The product $D(x) Q(x)$ can be computed in $O(n \log n)$ time using FFT multiplication.
The subtraction $P(x) - (D(x)Q(x))$ takes $O(n)$ time.
So, the total time for both quotient and remainder is dominated by multiplication and inversion, which is $O(n \log n)$.
This FFT-based division algorithm is faster than the naive $O(n^2)$ algorithm, especially for large degree polynomials.
**Complexity Summary:**
* Addition/Subtraction: $O(\max(n,m))$
* Multiplication (FFT): $O((n+m) \log (n+m))$ which is $O(N \log N)$ for $N=\max(n,m)$.
* Division (FFT): $O(n \log n)$ for finding both quotient and remainder, assuming $n \ge m$.
These algorithms rely on the existence of a suitable number theoretic transform (NTT) if working over finite fields, or floating-point FFT if working over real/complex numbers. For exact arithmetic with large coefficients, more advanced techniques or specialized FFT implementations for large numbers are needed. The complexity analysis assumes we can perform arithmetic operations (addition, multiplication, division by powers of 2) efficiently, which is typically true in standard FFT implementations over fields or rings where NTT is applicable.
Let's implement the naive multiplication and division to confirm the basic process, assuming the coefficients are standard integers or floats. For FFT implementation, we'd need complex numbers or a finite field with a suitable primitive root of unity.

# The naive division implementation seems robust enough for demonstrating the concept.
# The FFT-based division relies on polynomial inversion modulo x^k and multiplication,
# where multiplication is done via FFT. The inversion itself uses multiplication
# in a recursive/iterative structure (Newton's method).
# The core idea of FFT-based polynomial division is:
# P(x) = D(x)Q(x) + R(x), where deg(R) < deg(D) = m.
# P(x) = D(x)Q(x) mod x^n (ignoring terms beyond degree n that arise from R/D,
# which don't exist anyway since deg(R)<m)
# This relationship is not sufficient because Q(x) depends on the high-order terms,
# while modulo $x^k$ operations only depend on low-order terms.
# The trick is to use reciprocal polynomials and work modulo $x^k$ for the right $k$.
# Using the definition P^{rev}(y) = y^n P(1/y) for deg(P) = n:
# P(x) = D(x) Q(x) + R(x)
# Substitute x = 1/y: P(1/y) = D(1/y) Q(1/y) + R(1/y)
# Multiply by y^n: y^n P(1/y) = y^n D(1/y) Q(1/y) + y^n R(1/y)
# P^{rev}(y) = (y^m D(1/y)) (y^{n-m} Q(1/y)) + y^n R(1/y) (assuming deg(Q) = n-m)
# Let D^{rev}(y) = y^m D(1/y) and Q^{rev}(y) = y^{n-m} Q(1/y).
# P^{rev}(y) = D^{rev}(y) Q^{rev}(y) + y^n R(1/y)
# The degree of R(y) is at most m-1.
# The degree of y^n R(1/y) = y^n * (r_0 + r_1/y + ... + r_{m-1}/y^{m-1}) = r_0 y^n + r_1 y^{n-1} + ... + r_{m-1} y^{n-m+1}.
# The lowest degree term in y^n R(1/y) is y^{n-m+1}.
# Taking the equation modulo y^{n-m+1}:
# P^{rev}(y) \equiv D^{rev}(y) Q^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^{n-m+1}}
# This is valid because all terms in y^n R(1/y) have degree n-m+1 or higher.
# Let k = n-m+1.
# We need P^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k} and D^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k}.
# P^{rev}(y) = a_n + a_{n-1}y + a_{n-2}y^2 + ... + a_0 y^n.
# P^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k} = a_n + a_{n-1}y + ... + a_{n-(k-1)}y^{k-1}.
# This corresponds to the top k coefficients of P(x), reversed.
# D^{rev}(y) = b_m + b_{m-1}y + b_{m-2}y^2 + ... + b_0 y^m.
# D^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k} = b_m + b_{m-1}y + ... + b_{m-(k-1)}y^{k-1}.
# This corresponds to the top k coefficients of D(x), reversed.
# Let Phat(y) = P^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k} and Dhat(y) = D^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k}.
# Dhat(0) = b_m. Assuming b_m != 0, Dhat(y) has an inverse modulo y^k.
# Q^{rev}(y) \equiv Phat(y) * Dhat(y)^{-1} \pmod{y^k}.
# The degree of Q(x) is n-m. Q(x) has n-m+1 coefficients.
# Q^{rev}(y) = y^{n-m} Q(1/y) = q_{n-m} + q_{n-m-1}y + ... + q_0 y^{n-m}.
# The coefficients of Q^{rev}(y) are q_{n-m}, q_{n-m-1}, ..., q_0.
# These are the coefficients of Q(x) in reverse order.
# The degree of Q^{rev}(y) is n-m.
# We need Q^{rev}(y)$ up to degree n-m.
# The equation $Q^{rev}(y) \equiv Phat(y) * Dhat(y)^{-1} \pmod{y^k}$ computes $Q^{rev}(y)$ correctly up to degree $k-1 = n-m$.
# So the resulting polynomial from the multiplication and inversion mod $y^{n-m+1}$
# gives the coefficients of $Q(x)$ in reverse order.
# To get Q(x): compute $Q^{rev}(y)$ coefficients [c_0, c_1, ..., c_{n-m}]
# Then Q(x) has coefficients [c_{n-m}, c_{n-m-1}, ..., c_0].
# After computing Q(x), we compute R(x) = P(x) - D(x)Q(x).

# If n ~ 2m, then n-m ~ m, k ~ m. O(m log m). Total O(m log m + n log n) = O(n log n).
# If n is much larger than m, say n=O(m^2), then k=O(n), O(k log k) = O(n log n).
# The complexity is indeed O(n log n).
# Comparing naive vs FFT:
# Naive Multiplication: O(nm) ~ O(N^2) for N=max(n,m).
# FFT Multiplication: O(N log N).
# Naive Division: O(n(n-m)) ~ O(n^2).
# FFT Division: O(n log n).
# FFT-based algorithms are significantly faster for large polynomials.
# The crossover point where FFT becomes faster depends on implementation details
# and the cost of complex number arithmetic or NTT arithmetic.
# Typically, it's somewhere around degree 100-1000.
# Practical considerations for FFT-based division:
# 1. Coefficient types: Floating point FFT introduces precision issues. Need careful rounding or use Number Theoretic Transform (NTT) for exact integer arithmetic (requires working modulo a prime and finding a suitable primitive root of unity).
# 2. Modulus for NTT: The prime modulus p and the size N' for NTT must satisfy N' | (p-1), and N' must be a power of 2. Also, N' >= n+m+1 for multiplication, and N' >= max(k, m+deg(Q)+1) or similar bounds for division intermediate steps.
# 3. Implementation complexity: NTT requires careful implementation of modular arithmetic and the transform itself.
# For competitive programming problems, often NTT is used for exact polynomial multiplication and division over finite fields.
# Example with NTT (conceptual):
# Need a prime p and a primitive N'-th root of unity mod p.
# N' must be a power of 2 and N' | (p-1).
# E.g., p = 998244353, a common prime in competitive programming. p-1 = 998244352 = 119 * 2^23.
# We can use NTT size up to 2^23. A primitive root of unity is often provided (e.g., g = 3). The N'-th root is g^((p-1)/N') mod p.
# The overall structure of poly_multiply_fft and poly_inverse_mod_xk would be similar,
# but using modular arithmetic and NTT instead of complex numbers and DFT.
# The `np.fft.fft`, `np.fft.ifft`, and arithmetic operations would be replaced by modular NTT functions.
# Rounding would not be necessary; the results are exact integers modulo p.
# Let's consider the constraints of a potential problem. If polynomial degrees are large (e.g., 10^5 or 10^6), FFT/NTT is required. If degrees are small (e.g., 1000), naive might pass, but FFT/NTT is safer.
# Summary of algorithms discussed:
# - Naive Polynomial Addition/Subtraction: O(N)
# - Naive Polynomial Multiplication: O(N^2)
# - Naive Polynomial Division: O(n(n-m)) = O(n^2)
# - FFT/NTT based Polynomial Multiplication: O(N log N)
# - FFT/NTT based Polynomial Division: O(n log n)
# The complexity of FFT/NTT multiplication dominates that of addition/subtraction.
# The complexity of FFT/NTT division dominates that of multiplication used within it,
# and the final subtraction.
# Therefore, the overall complexity of performing arithmetic operations on polynomials
# using FFT/NTT is O(N log N) for multiplication and O(n log n) for division.
# Final check on the division algorithm steps and complexity:
# To find Q(x) (degree n-m) and R(x) (degree < m) such that P(x) = D(x)Q(x) + R(x), deg(P)=n, deg(D)=m.
# 1. Compute Q_rev = (P_rev mod y^k) * (D_rev mod y^k)^-1 mod y^k, where k=n-m+1.
# - P_rev mod y^k: Takes top k coeffs of P, reversed. O(k).
# - D_rev mod y^k: Takes top k coeffs of D, reversed. O(k).
# - (D_rev mod y^k)^-1 mod y^k: Polynomial inverse mod y^k. Using Newton's method, this takes O(k log k).
# - Multiply (P_rev mod y^k) and (D_rev mod y^k)^-1 mod y^k: Both polynomials of degree k-1. Product degree 2k-2. Computed mod y^k. Using FFT multiplication, this takes O(k log k).
# - Result is Q_rev (polynomial of degree n-m). O(k) to extract coeffs.
# - Total for Q_rev: O(k log k) = O((n-m) log(n-m)).
# 2. Reverse coeffs of Q_rev to get Q(x). O(n-m).
# 3. Compute D(x) * Q(x). D has degree m, Q has degree n-m. Product has degree n. Using FFT multiplication, this takes O(n log n).
# 4. Compute R(x) = P(x) - D(x)Q(x). Subtraction is O(n). Truncate/Normalize R to degree < m. O(m).
# Total time = O((n-m) log(n-m)) + O(n log n) + O(n).
# Since n >= n-m, and log is increasing, O(n log n) dominates O((n-m) log(n-m)).
# Total time complexity for division is O(n log n).
# This seems correct. The key insight is using the reciprocal polynomial trick to turn division into multiplication and inversion modulo a suitable power of x, and then using Newton's method for fast inversion which relies on fast multiplication.

# 2. Recursive step: If we have B = A^-1 mod x^j, compute B_new = B * (2 - A*B) mod x^{2j}.
# This doubles the precision. The number of steps is log k.
# Each step involves polynomial multiplication mod x^{2j}. A mod x^{2j} has ~2j coeffs, B has ~j coeffs. Product A*B needs FFT size >= 2j + j - 1 = 3j - 1.
# Smallest power of 2 >= 3j-1 is roughly 2 * 2^j. Multiplication time is O(2^j log(2^j)).
# Total inversion time = sum_{j=1}^{log k} O(2^j log(2^j)) = O(k log k).
# This confirms the complexity analysis.
```Polynomials can be represented as vectors of coefficients, where the $i$-th element is the coefficient of $x^i$. For a polynomial $P(x) = a_n x^n + a_{n-1} x^{n-1} + \dots + a_1 x + a_0$, the coefficient vector is $[a_0, a_1, \dots, a_n]$. The degree of the polynomial is the index of the highest non-zero coefficient.
Let $P(x)$ have degree $n$ and coefficient vector $A = [a_0, a_1, \dots, a_n]$.
Let $Q(x)$ have degree $m$ and coefficient vector $B = [b_0, b_1, \dots, b_m]$.
## A.1 Addition and Subtraction
The sum of two polynomials $P(x) + Q(x)$ is a polynomial $R(x) = \sum_{i=0}^{\max(n,m)} c_i x^i$, where $c_i = a_i + b_i$. If $n \ne m$, we pad the shorter coefficient vector with zeros to match the length of the longer one.
The coefficient vector of $R(x)$ is obtained by element-wise addition of the padded vectors $A$ and $B$.
Similarly, the difference $P(x) - Q(x)$ is $R(x) = \sum_{i=0}^{\max(n,m)} c_i x^i$, where $c_i = a_i - b_i$. The coefficient vector is obtained by element-wise subtraction.
**Complexity:** If coefficients are stored as vectors, both addition and subtraction require iterating through the coefficients once. The number of coefficients is $\max(n,m) + 1$.
The complexity is $O(\max(n,m))$.
## A.2 Multiplication
The product of two polynomials $P(x) \cdot Q(x)$ is a polynomial $R(x) = \sum_{k=0}^{n+m} c_k x^k$. The coefficients $c_k$ are given by the convolution of the coefficient vectors $A$ and $B$:
$c_k = \sum_{i=0}^k a_i b_{k-i}$, where $a_i=0$ for $i>n$ and $b_j=0$ for $j>m$. The degree of $R(x)$ is $n+m$.
### A.2.1 Naive Multiplication
The naive approach directly computes each coefficient $c_k$ using the convolution formula. There are $n+m+1$ coefficients $c_k$. Computing $c_k$ involves a sum of up to $k+1$ terms.
$c_0 = a_0 b_0$ (1 multiplication)
$c_1 = a_0 b_1 + a_1 b_0$ (2 multiplications)
...
$c_k = a_0 b_k + a_1 b_{k-1} + \dots + a_k b_0$ (up to $k+1$ multiplications)
...
$c_{n+m} = a_n b_m$ (1 multiplication)
The total number of multiplications is $\sum_{k=0}^{n+m} (k+1)$ terms, upper-bounded by $(n+m+1)^2$.
A tighter analysis counts $O((n+1)(m+1))$ coefficient multiplications.
The complexity is $O(nm)$, which is $O(N^2)$ if $n, m \le N$.
### A.2.2 Fast Multiplication (using FFT/NTT)
Polynomial multiplication can be significantly accelerated using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) or Number Theoretic Transform (NTT) based on the Convolution Theorem. The theorem states that the convolution of two sequences corresponds to the element-wise product of their DFTs (or NTTs).
The steps are:
1. **Pad the coefficient vectors:** Pad $A$ and $B$ with zeros to a length $N'$, where $N'$ is the smallest power of 2 greater than $n+m$.
2. **Compute DFT/NTT:** Compute the DFT (or NTT) of the padded vectors $A'$ and $B'$ to get $A_{\text{transform}}$ and $B_{\text{transform}}$. Using FFT/NTT, this takes $O(N' \log N')$ time.
3. **Pointwise Multiplication:** Compute the element-wise product of the transformed vectors: $C_{\text{transform}}[i] = A_{\text{transform}}[i] \cdot B_{\text{transform}}[i]$ for all $i$. This takes $O(N')$ time.
4. **Compute Inverse DFT/NTT:** Compute the inverse DFT (or NTT) of $C_{\text{transform}}$ to get the coefficient vector $C$ of the product polynomial $R(x)$. This takes $O(N' \log N')$ time.
The length $N'$ is $O(n+m)$, so the complexity of the FFT/NTT based multiplication is $O((n+m) \log (n+m))$, which is $O(N \log N)$ if $n, m \le N$. This is much faster than the naive approach for large polynomials.
## A.3 Division
Given two polynomials $P(x)$ (dividend) of degree $n$ and $D(x)$ (divisor) of degree $m$, with $D(x)$ non-zero, polynomial division finds a unique quotient polynomial $Q(x)$ and a unique remainder polynomial $R(x)$ such that:
$P(x) = D(x) Q(x) + R(x)$
where $\deg(R) < \deg(D) = m$.
If $n < m$, then $Q(x) = 0$ and $R(x) = P(x)$. If $n \ge m$, then $\deg(Q) = n-m$.
### A.3.1 Naive Division (Long Division)
The naive approach is analogous to arithmetic long division. We repeatedly subtract multiples of the divisor from the current remainder (initially the dividend) until the remainder's degree is less than the divisor's degree.
Let $P(x) = a_n x^n + \dots + a_0$ and $D(x) = b_m x^m + \dots + b_0$, with $a_n \ne 0$ and $b_m \ne 0$ (assuming polynomials are normalized).
The highest degree term of the quotient is $(a_n/b_m) x^{n-m}$.
We subtract $(a_n/b_m) x^{n-m} D(x)$ from $P(x)$. The resulting polynomial has degree at most $n-1$. This becomes the new remainder.
We repeat the process with the new remainder until its degree is less than $m$.
The quotient $Q(x)$ has degree $n-m$. The loop runs approximately $n-m+1$ times (the number of coefficients in $Q$). In each step $i$ (for the $i$-th term of the quotient, degree $n-m-i$), we multiply the corresponding quotient coefficient by $D(x)$ (degree $m$) which takes $O(m)$ time naively, and then subtract from the remainder (degree up to $n-i$), which takes $O(n-i)$ time.
The total time is approximately $\sum_{i=0}^{n-m} O(m + (n-i)) = \sum_{i=0}^{n-m} O(n-i) = O((n-m+1) \cdot n) = O(n(n-m))$.
In the worst case, $m=1$ and $n$ is large, the complexity is $O(n^2)$. If $m \approx n/2$, the complexity is $O(n^2)$. If $m \approx n$, the complexity is $O(n)$. The worst-case complexity is $O(n^2)$.
### A.3.2 Fast Division (using FFT/NTT)
Fast polynomial division relies on the relationship between polynomial division and polynomial inversion modulo $x^k$, combined with FFT/NTT for fast multiplication and inversion.
Let $P(x) = D(x)Q(x) + R(x)$, with $\deg(P)=n$, $\deg(D)=m$, $\deg(Q)=n-m$, $\deg(R) < m$.
Consider the reciprocal polynomial $P^{rev}(y) = y^n P(1/y)$ (reverse the coefficients of $P(x)$).
Substituting $x = 1/y$ in the division equation and multiplying by $y^n$:
$y^n P(1/y) = y^n D(1/y) Q(1/y) + y^n R(1/y)$
$P^{rev}(y) = (y^m D(1/y)) (y^{n-m} Q(1/y)) + y^n R(1/y)$
Let $D^{rev}(y) = y^m D(1/y)$ (coefficients of $D(x)$ reversed) and $Q^{rev}(y) = y^{n-m} Q(1/y)$ (coefficients of $Q(x)$ reversed).
$P^{rev}(y) = D^{rev}(y) Q^{rev}(y) + y^n R(1/y)$
Since $\deg(R) < m$, the term $y^n R(1/y)$ has lowest power $y^{n-(m-1)} = y^{n-m+1}$.
Considering the equation modulo $y^{n-m+1}$:
$P^{rev}(y) \equiv D^{rev}(y) Q^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^{n-m+1}}$
This congruence holds for the first $n-m+1$ coefficients (from $y^0$ to $y^{n-m}$) of the polynomials. Let $k = n-m+1$.
$P^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k}$ corresponds to the coefficients $[a_n, a_{n-1}, \dots, a_{n-k+1}]$.
$D^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k}$ corresponds to the coefficients $[b_m, b_{m-1}, \dots, b_{m-k+1}]$. Note that $b_m \ne 0$ is the constant term of $D^{rev}(y)$, so $D^{rev}(y)$ is invertible in the ring of power series $K[[y]]$.
We can find $Q^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k}$ by computing:
$Q^{rev}(y) \equiv (P^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k}) \cdot (D^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k})^{-1} \pmod{y^k}$.
The steps for FFT/NTT based polynomial division (finding $Q(x)$ and $R(x)$):
1. Let $k = n-m+1$.
2. Compute $P_{\text{hat}}(y) = P^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k}$ and $D_{\text{hat}}(y) = D^{rev}(y) \pmod{y^k}$. This takes $O(k)$ time.
3. Compute the inverse of $D_{\text{hat}}(y)$ modulo $y^k$, $(D_{\text{hat}}(y))^{-1} \pmod{y^k}$. This can be done using Newton's method for polynomial inversion, which uses polynomial multiplication. The complexity is $O(k \log k)$ using FFT/NTT multiplication.
4. Multiply $P_{\text{hat}}(y)$ by $(D_{\text{hat}}(y))^{-1} \pmod{y^k}$ using FFT/NTT multiplication, and take the result modulo $y^k$. This computes $Q_{\text{rev}}(y) \pmod{y^k}$. Since $\deg(Q^{rev})=n-m=k-1$, this gives the full polynomial $Q^{rev}(y)$. The complexity is $O(k \log k)$.
5. The coefficients of $Q^{rev}(y)$ are the coefficients of $Q(x)$ in reverse order. Reverse the coefficients to obtain $Q(x)$. This takes $O(k) = O(n-m)$ time.
6. Compute the remainder $R(x) = P(x) - D(x)Q(x)$.
* Compute the product $D(x)Q(x)$ using FFT/NTT multiplication. $\deg(D)=m$, $\deg(Q)=n-m$, so $\deg(DQ)=n$. This takes $O(n \log n)$ time.
* Subtract $D(x)Q(x)$ from $P(x)$. This takes $O(n)$ time.
* The result is $R(x)$. Truncate coefficients to $\deg(D)-1 = m-1$ to account for potential small floating-point errors if using FFT.
The total time complexity for finding both $Q(x)$ and $R(x)$ is dominated by the $O(n \log n)$ multiplication step used to find the remainder. The step to find $Q(x)$ takes $O(k \log k) = O((n-m) \log(n-m))$ which is at most $O(n \log n)$.
Thus, the complexity of FFT/NTT based polynomial division is $O(n \log n)$.
In summary:
* **Addition/Subtraction:** $O(N)$
* **Multiplication:** $O(N^2)$ (Naive), $O(N \log N)$ (FFT/NTT)
* **Division:** $O(n^2)$ (Naive), $O(n \log n)$ (FFT/NTT)
FFT/NTT provides substantial speedups for polynomial arithmetic, especially for large degrees.
The final answer is $\boxed{See above}$.
