  2. Gaussian elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_elimination

    Using row operations to convert a matrix into reduced row echelon form is sometimes called Gauss–Jordan elimination. In this case, the term Gaussian elimination refers to the process until it has reached its upper triangular, or (unreduced) row echelon form. For computational reasons, when solving systems of linear equations, it is sometimes ...

  3. Polynomial long division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_long_division

    If one root r of a polynomial P(x) of degree n is known then polynomial long division can be used to factor P(x) into the form (x − r)Q(x) where Q(x) is a polynomial of degree n − 1. Q ( x ) is simply the quotient obtained from the division process; since r is known to be a root of P ( x ), it is known that the remainder must be zero.

  4. Row echelon form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row_echelon_form

    The reduced echelon form of a matrix with integer entries generally contains non-integer entries, because of the need of dividing by its leading coefficient each row of the echelon form. The non-uniqueness of the row echelon form of a matrix follows from the fact that some elementary row operations transform a matrix in row echelon form into ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buchberger's_algorithm

    Repeat steps 2-4 until all possible pairs are considered, including those involving the new polynomials added in step 4. Output G; The polynomial S ij is commonly referred to as the S-polynomial, where S refers to subtraction (Buchberger) or syzygy (others). The pair of polynomials with which it is associated is commonly referred to as critical ...

  6. Synthetic division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_division

    In algebra, synthetic division is a method for manually performing Euclidean division of polynomials, with less writing and fewer calculations than long division. It is mostly taught for division by linear monic polynomials (known as Ruffini's rule ), but the method can be generalized to division by any polynomial .

  7. Division polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_polynomials

    In mathematics the division polynomials provide a way to calculate multiples of points on elliptic curves and to study the fields generated by torsion points. They play a central role in the study of counting points on elliptic curves in Schoof's algorithm .

  8. 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 ...

  9. Row and column spaces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row_and_column_spaces

    Since row operations can affect linear dependence relations of the row vectors, such a basis is instead found indirectly using the fact that the column space of A T is equal to the row space of A. Using the example matrix A above, find A T and reduce it to row echelon form:
