  2. Factorization of polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization_of_polynomials

    Modern algorithms and computers can quickly factor univariate polynomials of degree more than 1000 having coefficients with thousands of digits. [3] For this purpose, even for factoring over the rational numbers and number fields, a fundamental step is a factorization of a polynomial over a finite field.

  3. Factorization of polynomials over finite fields - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization_of...

    A polynomial f of degree n greater than one, which is irreducible over F q, defines a field extension of degree n which is isomorphic to the field with q n elements: the elements of this extension are the polynomials of degree lower than n; addition, subtraction and multiplication by an element of F q are those of the polynomials; the product ...

  4. Factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization

    In elementary algebra, factoring a polynomial reduces the problem of finding its roots to finding the roots of the factors. Polynomials with coefficients in the integers or in a field possess the unique factorization property, a version of the fundamental theorem of arithmetic with prime numbers replaced by irreducible polynomials.

  5. Polynomial greatest common divisor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_greatest_common...

    Note: "lc" stands for the leading coefficient, the coefficient of the highest degree of the variable. This algorithm computes not only the greatest common divisor (the last non zero r i), but also all the subresultant polynomials: The remainder r i is the (deg(r i−1) − 1)-th subresultant polynomial.

  6. Drag coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_coefficient

    Drag coefficients in fluids with Reynolds number approximately 10 4 [1] [2] Shapes are depicted with the same projected frontal area. In fluid dynamics, the drag coefficient (commonly denoted as: , or ) is a dimensionless quantity that is used to quantify the drag or resistance of an object in a fluid environment, such as air or water.

  7. Completing the square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completing_the_square

    Given a quadratic polynomial of the form + + it is possible to factor out the coefficient a, and then complete the square for the resulting monic polynomial. Example: + + = [+ +] = [(+) +] = (+) + = (+) + This process of factoring out the coefficient a can further be simplified by only factorising it out of the first 2 terms.

  8. Integer factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_factorization

    Given an integer n that will be factored, where n is an odd positive integer greater than a certain constant. In this factoring algorithm the discriminant Δ is chosen as a multiple of n, Δ = −dn, where d is some positive multiplier. The algorithm expects that for one d there exist enough smooth forms in G Δ.

  9. Irreducible polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducible_polynomial

    In mathematics, an irreducible polynomial is, roughly speaking, a polynomial that cannot be factored into the product of two non-constant polynomials.The property of irreducibility depends on the nature of the coefficients that are accepted for the possible factors, that is, the ring to which the coefficients of the polynomial and its possible factors are supposed to belong.
