  2. Polynomial root-finding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_root-finding

    For finding one root, Newton's method and other general iterative methods work generally well. 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.

  3. Laguerre's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laguerre's_method

    Even if the 'drastic set of assumptions' does not work well for some particular polynomial p(x), then p(x) can be transformed into a related polynomial r for which the assumptions are viable; e.g. by first shifting the origin towards a suitable complex number w, giving a second polynomial q(x) = p(x − w), that give distinct roots clearly distinct magnitudes, if necessary (which it will be if ...

  4. Finite volume method for two dimensional diffusion problem

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_volume_method_for...

    The boundary side coefficient is set to zero (cutting the link with the boundary) and the flux crossing this boundary is introduced as a source which is appended to any existing and terms. Subsequently the resulting set of equations is solved to obtain the two dimensional distribution of the property φ {\displaystyle \varphi {}}

  5. Root-finding algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root-finding_algorithm

    The ITP method is the only known method to bracket the root with the same worst case guarantees of the bisection method while guaranteeing a superlinear convergence to the root of smooth functions as the secant method. It is also the only known method guaranteed to outperform the bisection method on the average for any continuous distribution ...

  6. Cubic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_equation

    When p = ±3, the above values of t 0 are sometimes called the Chebyshev cube root. [29] More precisely, the values involving cosines and hyperbolic cosines define, when p = −3, the same analytic function denoted C 1/3 (q), which is the proper Chebyshev cube root. The value involving hyperbolic sines is similarly denoted S 1/3 (q), when p = 3.

  7. Muller's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muller's_method

    Muller's method is a root-finding algorithm, a numerical method for solving equations of the form f(x) = 0.It was first presented by David E. Muller in 1956.. Muller's method proceeds according to a third-order recurrence relation similar to the second-order recurrence relation of the secant method.

  8. Spline interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spline_interpolation

    The relations are n − 1 linear equations for the n + 1 values k 0, k 1, ..., k n. For the elastic rulers being the model for the spline interpolation, one has that to the left of the left-most "knot" and to the right of the right-most "knot" the ruler can move freely and will therefore take the form of a straight line with q′′ = 0 .

  9. Chebyshev distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev_distance

    A sphere formed using the Chebyshev distance as a metric is a cube with each face perpendicular to one of the coordinate axes, but a sphere formed using Manhattan distance is an octahedron: these are dual polyhedra, but among cubes, only the square (and 1-dimensional line segment) are self-dual polytopes.
