[ Abstract ]
In order to find irreducible polynomials over $\\mathbb{F}_2$ efficiently, the method using Swan's theorem is known. Swan's theorem determines the parity of the numberof irreducible factors of a polynomial $f$ over $\\mathbb{F}_2$ with no repeated root, by using the discriminant ${\\rm D}(\\tilde{f})\\pmod 8$, where $\\tilde{f}$ is a monic polynomial over $\\mathbb{Z}_2$ such that $\\tilde{f}=f\\pmod 2$. In the lecture, we will give the formula for the discriminant ${\\rm D}(\\tilde{f}) \\pmod 8$ for a polynomial $f$ over $\\mathbb{F}_2$ with no repeated root. By applying this formula to various types of polynomials, we shall get the parity of the number of irreducible factors of them.
