The factorization of \(f(x)x^{ n }+g(x)\) with \(f(x)\) monic and of degree \(\leq 2\) (Q2448539)

Let \(f(X)=X^2+bX+c\in Z[X]\) with \(c\geq2\), \(|b|<2\sqrt{c-1}\), and let \(g\in Z[X]\), \(\deg g=t\). The author shows that under certain assumptions on the coefficients of \(g\) (depending on \(f\)) the polynomial \(f(X)X^n+g(X)\) is reducible for all \(n > n_0(f,t)\). This leads to a series of corollaries asserting irreducibility for certain families of polynomials.
