The morphism is: ϕ:pZ[X]Z[X]→(X2+tX+q)Zp[X]Zp[X], ϕ(f(x))=f(x) (mod p).
Some introductions:
pZ[X] is the ideal generated by p in Z[X].
Similarly for (X2+tX+q)Zp[X] .
f(x) is an element (class) of pZ[X]Z[X]. (1st ring in the definition of the morphism)
f(x) is an element of (X2+tX+q)Zp[X]Zp[X]. (2nd ring in the definition of the morphism)
I am trying to prove Ker(ϕ)={f(x)∣ϕ(f(x))=0} to be:
ker(ϕ)=pZ[X](X2+tX+q,p)Z[X]
I attempted to use the double inclusion method. It's easy to show that if f(x)∈pZ[X](X2+tX+q,p)Z[X], then f(x)=(X2+tX+q)g(X)+ph(X), with g(X),h(X)∈Z[X], and f(x)=(X2+tX+q)g(X)=0.
I have trouble proving that if f(X)=0→f(X)∈pZ[X](X2+tX+q,p)Z[X].
I suppose
f(X)=0f(x)∈(X2+tX+q)Zp[X]f(x)≡(X2+tX+q)g(x)(modp)f(x)−(X2+tX+q)g(x)=pkf(x)=(X2+tX+q)g(x)+pkf(x)∈(X2+tX+q)g(x)+pkwith g(x)∈Z[X],k∈Z, so
f(x)∈(X2+tX+q,p)Z[X]. And when we go into f(x), I suppose we get that f(x)∈pZ[X](X2+tX+q,p)Z[X] (that which I was trying to prove). Could I get a 2nd opinion about what I did here?
One thing I am unsure about, is when I switched from mod p to next line, whether f(x)∈(X2+tX+q)g(x)+pk or f(x)∈(X2+tX+q)g(x)+pk(x). I am starting to think it's the latter, but I don't think I understand it well enough.
