Let K be a field and let L = K[ξ] be a finite field extension of K of degree m > 1. If f ∈ L[Z] is a polynomial, then there exist unique polynomials u , . . . , u m - 1 K [ X , . . . , X m - 1 ] such that f ( j = 0 m - 1 ξ j X j ) = j = 0 m - 1 ξ j u j . A. Nowicki and S. Spodzieja proved that, if K is a field of characteristic zero and f ≠ 0, then u , . . . , u m - 1 have no common divisor in K [ X , . . . , X m - 1 ] of positive degree. We extend this result to the case when L is a separable extension of a field K of arbitrary characteristic. We also show that the same is true for a formal power series in several variables.

If f ∈ L[Z] is a polynomial, then there exist unique polynomials $u₀,...,u_{m-1} ∈ K[X₀,...,X_{m-1}]$ such that $f(∑_{j=0}^{m-1}ξ^{j}X_{j}) = ∑_{j=0}^{m-1}ξ^{j}u_{j}$. A. Nowicki and S. Spodzieja proved that, if K is a field of characteristic zero and f ≠ 0, then $u₀,...,u_{m-1}$ have no common divisor in $K[X₀,...,X_{m-1}]$ of positive degree. We extend this result to the case when L is a separable extension of a field K of arbitrary characteristic. We also show that the same is true for a formal power series in several variables.
