Theorem

Let $\struct {F, +, \circ}$ be a field whose zero is $0_F$ and whose unity is $1_F$.

Let $X$ be transcendental over $F$.

Let $F \sqbrk X$ be the ring of polynomials in $X$ over $F$.


Then $F \sqbrk X$ is a principal ideal domain.


Proof

We have that Polynomial Forms over Field is Euclidean Domain.

We also have that Euclidean Domain is Principal Ideal Domain.

Hence the result.
