  2. Secant method - Wikipedia

    We then use this new value of x as x 2 and repeat the process, using x 1 and x 2 instead of x 0 and x 1. We continue this process, solving for x 3, x 4, etc., until we reach a sufficiently high level of precision (a sufficiently small difference between x n and x n−1):

  3. Error function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_function

    where p = 0.3275911, a 1 = 0.254829592, a 2 = −0.284496736, a 3 = 1.421413741, a 4 = −1.453152027, a 5 = 1.061405429 All of these approximations are valid for x ≥ 0 . To use these approximations for negative x , use the fact that erf x is an odd function, so erf x = −erf(− x ) .

  4. Gauss–Seidel method - Wikipedia

    algorithm Gauss–Seidel method is inputs: A, b output: φ Choose an initial guess φ to the solution repeat until convergence for i from 1 until n do σ ← 0 for j from 1 until n do if j ≠ i then σ ← σ + a ij φ j end if end (j-loop) φ i ← (b i − σ) / a ii end (i-loop) check if convergence is reached end (repeat)

  5. Degree of a polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_of_a_polynomial

    Therefore, let f(x) = g(x) = 2x + 1. Then, f(x)g(x) = 4x 2 + 4x + 1 = 1. Thus deg(f⋅g) = 0 which is not greater than the degrees of f and g (which each had degree 1). Since the norm function is not defined for the zero element of the ring, we consider the degree of the polynomial f(x) = 0 to also be undefined so that it follows the rules of a ...

  6. System of polynomial equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_polynomial_equations

    Most but not all overdetermined systems, when constructed with random coefficients, are inconsistent. For example, the system x 3 – 1 = 0, x 21 = 0 is overdetermined (having two equations but only one unknown), but it is not inconsistent since it has the solution x = 1.

  7. Newton's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_method

    An illustration of Newton's method. In numerical analysis, the Newton–Raphson method, also known simply as Newton's method, named after Isaac Newton and Joseph Raphson, is a root-finding algorithm which produces successively better approximations to the roots (or zeroes) of a real-valued function.

  8. Jacobi method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobi_method

    Input: initial guess x (0) to the solution, (diagonal dominant) matrix A, right-hand side vector b, convergence criterion Output: solution when convergence is reached Comments: pseudocode based on the element-based formula above k = 0 while convergence not reached do for i := 1 step until n do σ = 0 for j := 1 step until n do if j ≠ i then ...

  9. Annihilator method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annihilator_method

    In mathematics, the annihilator method is a procedure used to find a particular solution to certain types of non-homogeneous ordinary differential equations (ODEs). [1] It is similar to the method of undetermined coefficients, but instead of guessing the particular solution in the method of undetermined coefficients, the particular solution is determined systematically in this technique.
