(** ** Scalar multiplication of a polynomial

  - [pscalar n p] is the polynomial [p] where all coefficients have been multiplied by [n].

Definition pscalar_mon (n:nat)(m:mon) : mon :=
  (n * fst m, snd m).Definition pscalar (n:nat)(p:pol) : pol :=
  (fst p, map (pscalar_mon n) (snd p)).

Lemma parity_pscalar n p : parity (pscalar n p) = parity p.
