In algebra, an alternating polynomial is a polynomial such that if one switches any two of the variables, the polynomial changes sign:
:Equivalently, if one permutes the variables, the polynomial changes in value by the sign of the permutation:
:

More generally, a polynomial is said to be alternating in if it changes sign if one switches any two of the , leaving the fixed.
