Abstract

We give a lower bound for the degree of an irreducible factor of a given polynomial. This improves and generalizes the results obtained in [4, On the irreducible factors of a polynomial, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 148 (2020] 1429 -- 1437].

8 pages, statements of main theorems simplified, some changes are made in the exposition to make it more self contained, typos corrected
