As stated in the documentation, 'PolynomialFactorizationExplicit (PFECAT)' is not implemented yet.  Unfortunately, this has as consequence that things like
\begin{axiom}
2::FR COMPLEX INT
\end{axiom}
do not work, although
\begin{axiom}
factor(2::COMPLEX INT)
\end{axiom}
does.  I don't think that a lot is missing. For example, 'INT' has already most operations needed for 'PFECAT', and 'COMPLEX' is missing only very little, in particular 'squareFree'.

It's time to analyse the algebra, I believe.

As stated in the documentation, PolynomialFactorizationExplicit (PFECAT) is not implemented yet. Unfortunately, this has as consequence that things like

axiom
2::FR COMPLEX INT

\label{eq1}-{i \ {{\left(1 + i \right)}^2}}(1)
Type: Factored(Complex(Integer))

do not work, although

axiom
factor(2::COMPLEX INT)

\label{eq2}-{i \ {{\left(1 + i \right)}^2}}(2)
Type: Factored(Complex(Integer))

does. I don't think that a lot is missing. For example, INT has already most operations needed for PFECAT, and COMPLEX is missing only very little, in particular squareFree.

It's time to analyse the algebra, I believe.
