  2. 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 ...

  3. Root-finding algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root-finding_algorithm

    [3] [4] At each iteration, the domain is partitioned into two parts, and the algorithm decides - based on a small number of function evaluations - which of these two parts must contain a root. In one dimension, the criterion for decision is that the function has opposite signs.

  4. Polynomial root-finding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_root-finding

    The main computer algebra systems (Maple, Mathematica, SageMath, PARI/GP) have each a variant of this method as the default algorithm for the real roots of a polynomial. The class of methods is based on converting the problem of finding polynomial roots to the problem of finding eigenvalues of the companion matrix of the polynomial, [1] in ...

  5. Durand–Kerner method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durand–Kerner_method

    In numerical analysis, the Weierstrass method or Durand–Kerner method, discovered by Karl Weierstrass in 1891 and rediscovered independently by Durand in 1960 and Kerner in 1966, is a root-finding algorithm for solving polynomial equations. [1] In other words, the method can be used to solve numerically the equation f(x) = 0,

  6. 2-satisfiability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-satisfiability

    In this problem, each variable corresponds to an hour that teacher must spend with cohort , the assignment to the variable specifies whether that hour is the first or the second of the teacher's available hours, and there is a 2-satisfiability clause preventing any conflict of either of two types: two cohorts assigned to a teacher at the same ...

  7. Polynomial interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_interpolation

    Hermite interpolation problems are those where not only the values of the polynomial p at the nodes are given, but also all derivatives up to a given order. This turns out to be equivalent to a system of simultaneous polynomial congruences, and may be solved by means of the Chinese remainder theorem for polynomials.

  8. Assignment problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assignment_problem

    In the balanced assignment problem, both parts of the bipartite graph have the same number of vertices, denoted by n. One of the first polynomial-time algorithms for balanced assignment was the Hungarian algorithm. It is a global algorithm – it is based on improving a matching along augmenting paths (alternating paths between unmatched vertices).

  9. Polynomial method in combinatorics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_method_in...

    Recently, the polynomial method has led to the development of remarkably simple solutions to several long-standing open problems. [1] The polynomial method encompasses a wide range of specific techniques for using polynomials and ideas from areas such as algebraic geometry to solve combinatorics problems.
