  2. Polynomial root-finding algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_root-finding...

    For finding all the roots, arguably the most reliable method is the Francis QR algorithm computing the eigenvalues of the companion matrix corresponding to the polynomial, implemented as the standard method [1] in MATLAB. The oldest method of finding all roots is to start by finding a single root. When a root r has been found, it can be removed ...

  3. 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 ...

  4. 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 ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. 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 ...

  7. 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]

  8. 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 ...

  9. Zero of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_of_a_function

    In mathematics, a zero (also sometimes called a root) of a real -, complex -, or generally vector-valued function , is a member of the domain of such that vanishes at ; that is, the function attains the value of 0 at , or equivalently, is a solution to the equation . [1] A "zero" of a function is thus an input value that produces an output of 0.
