Abstract
Polynomials in several variables are a fundamental topic of interest in commutative algebra. Their counterparts in noncommutative algebra are the noncommutative polynomials, i.e., polynomials in noncommuting indeterminates. Thus, if \(\xi \),\(\eta \) are such indeterminates, then \(\xi \eta \) and \(\eta \xi \) are different noncommutative polynomials.
