Homogeneous substitution with independent coefficient and polynomial variables, and specialization of the resulting coefficient forms.
Substituting coefficientwise homogeneous forms of degree n into a homogeneous polynomial φ
of degree m, with constant coefficients mapped to coefficientwise degree 0, gives a
coefficientwise homogeneous polynomial of degree n * m.
Specializing a universal coefficient polynomial Φ at the degree-d coefficients of f
commutes with applying a ring homomorphism ψ to the coefficients of f.
If the coefficients of f are homogeneous of degree e in auxiliary variables and Φ is a
homogeneous polynomial of degree r in the universal coefficients, then specializing Φ at
the degree-d coefficients of f gives a homogeneous polynomial of degree e * r.
