  2. Aberth method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberth_method

    The Aberth method, or Aberth–Ehrlich method or Ehrlich–Aberth method, named after Oliver Aberth [1] and Louis W. Ehrlich, [2] is a root-finding algorithm developed in 1967 for simultaneous approximation of all the roots of a univariate polynomial. This method converges cubically, an improvement over the Durand–Kerner method, another ...

  3. Horner's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horner's_method

    This polynomial is further reduced to = + + which is shown in blue and yields a zero of −5. The final root of the original polynomial may be found by either using the final zero as an initial guess for Newton's method, or by reducing () and solving the linear equation. As can be seen, the expected roots of −8, −5, −3, 2, 3, and 7 were ...

  4. Root-finding algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root-finding_algorithm

    Root-finding algorithm. In numerical analysis, a root-finding algorithm is an algorithm for finding zeros, also called "roots", of continuous functions. A zero of a function f is a number x such that f(x) = 0. As, generally, the zeros of a function cannot be computed exactly nor expressed in closed form, root-finding algorithms provide ...

  5. Jenkins–Traub algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jenkins–Traub_algorithm

    The Jenkins–Traub algorithm calculates all of the roots of a polynomial with complex coefficients. The algorithm starts by checking the polynomial for the occurrence of very large or very small roots. If necessary, the coefficients are rescaled by a rescaling of the variable. In the algorithm, proper roots are found one by one and generally ...

  6. Padé approximant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Padé_approximant

    Padé approximant. In mathematics, a Padé approximant is the "best" approximation of a function near a specific point by a rational function of given order. Under this technique, the approximant's power series agrees with the power series of the function it is approximating. The technique was developed around 1890 by Henri Padé, but goes back ...

  7. Zero of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_of_a_function

    A root of a polynomial is a zero of the corresponding polynomial function. [1] The fundamental theorem of algebra shows that any non-zero polynomial has a number of roots at most equal to its degree , and that the number of roots and the degree are equal when one considers the complex roots (or more generally, the roots in an algebraically ...

  8. Vieta's formulas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vieta's_formulas

    Vieta's formulas relate the polynomial coefficients to signed sums of products of the roots r1, r2, ..., rn as follows: Vieta's formulas can equivalently be written as for k = 1, 2, ..., n (the indices ik are sorted in increasing order to ensure each product of k roots is used exactly once). The left-hand sides of Vieta's formulas are the ...

  9. Ridders' method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ridders'_method

    Ridders' method. In numerical analysis, Ridders' method is a root-finding algorithm based on the false position method and the use of an exponential function to successively approximate a root of a continuous function . The method is due to C. Ridders. [1][2]
