Old description:

> expand f^n^ = f^qp^ * f^r^ (where r<p, so one can literally write out the
> resulting monomials).

New description:
One can take advantage of the fact that (a+b)^p^ = a^p^ + b^p^ to quickly
expand f^n^ = f^qp^ * f^r^ (as r<p, and f^p is sparse, the resulting
product is easy to compute).
