==q-polynomials over '''F'''<sub>''q''</sub>==
Linearised polynomials with coefficients in '''F'''<sub>''q''</sub> have additional properties which make it possible to define symbolic division, symbolic reducibility and symbolic
In this special case it can be shown that, as an [[Operation (mathematics)|operation]], symbolic multiplication is [[Commutative property|commutative]], [[associative]] and [[Distributive property|distributes]] over ordinary addition.<ref>{{harvnb|Lidl|Niederreiter|1983|loc=pg. 115 (first edition)}}</ref> Also, in this special case, we can define the operation of '''symbolic division'''. If ''L''(''x'') and ''L''<sub>1</sub>(''x'') are linearised polynomials over '''F'''<sub>''q''</sub>, we say that ''L''<sub>1</sub>(''x'') ''symbolically divides'' ''L''(''x'') if there exists a linearised polynomial ''L''<sub>2</sub>(''x'') over '''F'''<sub>''q''</sub> for which:
