Exercise 11, § 2

Algebra, IV, p. 88

Let PP be the set of all prime numbers, P′P' an infinite subset of PP and f∈Z[(Xi)]f \in Z[(X_i)]. For each p∈P′p \in P' let fpf_p be the element of (Z/pZ)[(Xi)](\mathbf{Z}/p\mathbf{Z})[(X_i)] obtained by applying to the coefficients of ff the canonical homomorphism of Z\mathbf{Z} onto Z/pZ\mathbf{Z}/p\mathbf{Z}. Suppose that for each p∈P′p \in P' and each x∈(Z/pZ)′x \in (\mathbf{Z}/p\mathbf{Z})' we have fp(x)=0f_p(x) = 0; then f=0f = 0.
