Funny algebra with imaginary numbers

Algebra Level 3

Let A ( x ) A(x) and B ( x ) B(x) be the polynomials A ( x ) = k = 1 2018 ( x + i e i 2 π k 2019 ) \displaystyle A(x) = \prod_{k = 1}^{2018} (x + i e^{i \frac{2 \pi k}{2019}}) and B ( x ) = x 2 + 1 B(x) = x^2 + 1 .

Then, there exist two unique polynomials Q ( x ) Q(x) of degree 2016 2016 , and R ( x ) R(x) of degree less than 2 2 such that x C \forall x \in \mathbb{C} , A ( x ) = Q ( x ) B ( x ) + R ( x ) A(x) = Q(x) \cdot B(x) + R(x) .

  • Enter 2018 R ( i ) 2018 \cdot R(i) .

Note.- i = 1 i = \sqrt{ -1}


The answer is -2018.
