  2. Rational root theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_root_theorem

    In the polynomial + the only possible rational roots would have a numerator that divides 6 and a denominator that divides 1, limiting the possibilities to ±1, ±2, ±3, and ±6. Of these, 1, 2, and –3 equate the polynomial to zero, and hence are its rational roots (in fact these are its only roots since a cubic polynomial has only three roots).

  3. Factorization of polynomials over finite fields - Wikipedia

    The polynomial P = x 4 + 1 is irreducible over Q but not over any finite field. On any field extension of F 2, P = (x + 1) 4. On every other finite field, at least one of −1, 2 and −2 is a square, because the product of two non-squares is a square and so we have; If =, then = (+) ().

  4. Minimal polynomial (linear algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimal_polynomial_(linear...

    T 3 ⋅ e 1 = −4T 2 ⋅ e 1 − T ⋅ e 1 + e 1, so that: μ T, e 1 = X 3 + 4X 2 + X − I. This is in fact also the minimal polynomial μ T and the characteristic polynomial χ T : indeed μ T, e 1 divides μ T which divides χ T, and since the first and last are of degree 3 and all are monic, they must all be the same.

  5. Table of prime factors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_prime_factors

    A Ruth-Aaron pair is two consecutive numbers (x, x+1) with a 0 (x) = a 0 (x+1). The first (by x value): 5, 8, 15, 77, 125, 714, 948, 1330, 1520, 1862, 2491, 3248 (sequence A039752 in the OEIS ). Another definition is where the same prime is only counted once; if so, the first (by x value): 5, 24, 49, 77, 104, 153, 369, 492, 714, 1682, 2107 ...

  6. Multiplicity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicity_(mathematics)

    Graph of x 3 + 2x 2 − 7x + 4 with a simple root (multiplicity 1) at x=−4 and a root of multiplicity 2 at x=1. The graph crosses the x axis at the simple root. It is tangent to the x axis at the multiple root and does not cross it, since the multiplicity is even.

    For example, antiderivatives of x 2 + 1 have the form ⁠ 1 / 3x 3 + x + c. For polynomials whose coefficients come from more abstract settings (for example, if the coefficients are integers modulo some prime number p , or elements of an arbitrary ring), the formula for the derivative can still be interpreted formally, with the coefficient ...

  8. System of polynomial equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_polynomial_equations

    Most but not all overdetermined systems, when constructed with random coefficients, are inconsistent. For example, the system x 31 = 0, x 21 = 0 is overdetermined (having two equations but only one unknown), but it is not inconsistent since it has the solution x = 1.

  9. Degree of a polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_of_a_polynomial

    Therefore, let f(x) = g(x) = 2x + 1. Then, f(x)g(x) = 4x 2 + 4x + 1 = 1. Thus deg(f⋅g) = 0 which is not greater than the degrees of f and g (which each had degree 1). Since the norm function is not defined for the zero element of the ring, we consider the degree of the polynomial f(x) = 0 to also be undefined so that it follows the rules of a ...
