Abstract

We characterize the fixed divisor of a polynomial f(X)f(X) in Z[X]\mathbb{Z}[X] by looking at the contraction of the powers of the maximal ideals of the overring Int(Z){\rm Int}(\mathbb{Z}) containing f(X)f(X). Given a prime pp and a positive integer nn, we also obtain a complete description of the ideal of polynomials in Z[X]\mathbb{Z}[X] whose fixed divisor is divisible by pnp^n in terms of its primary components.
