Abstract

Let KK be a field and fn(X)=(X+1)n+(1)n(Xn+1)K[X]f _{n}(X) = (X + 1) ^{n} + (-1) ^{n}(X ^{n} + 1) \in K[X], for each nNn \in \mathbb N. This note shows that the polynomials fm(X)f _{m}(X) and fm(X)f _{m'}(X) are relatively prime, for some distinct indices mm and mm ^{\prime} at most equal to 100100, if and only if the product mmmm ^{\prime } is divisible by 66.
