  2. Degree of a polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_of_a_polynomial

    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 norm in a Euclidean domain.

  3. Abel–Ruffini theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abel–Ruffini_theorem

    With modern computers and programs, deciding whether a polynomial is solvable by radicals can be done for polynomials of degree greater than 100. [6] Computing the solutions in radicals of solvable polynomials requires huge computations. Even for the degree five, the expression of the solutions is so huge that it has no practical interest.

  4. Quintic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quintic_function

    If a and b are rational numbers, the equation x 5 + ax + b = 0 is solvable by radicals if either its left-hand side is a product of polynomials of degree less than 5 with rational coefficients or there exist two rational numbers ℓ and m such that

  5. Horner's method - Wikipedia

    The largest zero of this polynomial which corresponds to the second largest zero of the original polynomial is found at 3 and is circled in red. The degree 5 polynomial is now divided by () to obtain = + + which is shown in yellow. The zero for this polynomial is found at 2 again using Newton's method and is circled in yellow.

  6. Homogeneous polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogeneous_polynomial

    In mathematics, a homogeneous polynomial, sometimes called quantic in older texts, is a polynomial whose nonzero terms all have the same degree. [1] For example, x 5 + 2 x 3 y 2 + 9 x y 4 {\displaystyle x^{5}+2x^{3}y^{2}+9xy^{4}} is a homogeneous polynomial of degree 5, in two variables; the sum of the exponents in each term is always 5.

  7. Polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial

    The polynomial 3x 2 − 5x + 4 is written in descending powers of x. The first term has coefficient 3, indeterminate x, and exponent 2. In the second term, the coefficient is −5. The third term is a constant. Because the degree of a non-zero polynomial is the largest degree of any one term, this polynomial has degree two. [11]

  8. Minimal polynomial (linear algebra) - Wikipedia

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

    In linear algebra, the minimal polynomial μ A of an n × n matrix A over a field F is the monic polynomial P over F of least degree such that P(A) = 0. Any other polynomial Q with Q(A) = 0 is a (polynomial) multiple of μ A. The following three statements are equivalent: λ is a root of μ A, λ is a root of the characteristic polynomial χ A ...

  9. Polynomial greatest common divisor - Wikipedia

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

    If the degree of the GCD is greater than i, then Bézout's identity shows that every non zero polynomial in the image of has a degree larger than i. This implies that S i = 0 . If, on the other hand, the degree of the GCD is i , then Bézout's identity again allows proving that the multiples of the GCD that have a degree lower than m + n − i ...
