Abstract:
For each prime power , we realize the classical cyclotomic polynomial as one of a collection of different polynomials in . We show that the new polynomials are similar to in many ways, including that their discriminants all have the form . We show also that the new polynomials are more complicated than in other ways, including that their complex roots are generally fractal in appearance.
