Currently, Sage does not know how to factor multivariate polynomials over
the integers:
{{{#!python
sage: R.<x,y> = ZZ[]
sage: p = 12 * (x*y - 1) * (x + 2*y + 3)
sage: p.factor()
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
NotImplementedError: Factorization of multivariate polynomials over non-
fields is not implemented.
}}}
I propose to implement it using the factorization over `QQ`. Of course it
may not be the best possible solution, but at least it is some
(temporary?) workaround. This now gives:
{{{#!python
sage: R.<x,y> = ZZ[]
sage: p = 12 * (x*y - 1) * (x + 2*y + 3)
sage: p.factor()
2^2 * 3 * (x + 2*y + 3) * (x*y - 1)
}}}
