Title:

Irreducibility of reductions of polynomials modulo p


 

Abstract: 

Let f be an irreducible polynomial with integer coefficients. We consider the problem of finding primes p for which the reduction of f modulo p is also irreducible. This problem  goes back to Frobenius and is a Chebotarev theorem in disguise.
