The elementary function approximation using piecewise quadratic polynomial interpolation requires larger area of the look-up table (LUT) and circuit. To solve the problem, this paper presents an ...

His new method to solve polynomials also avoids radicals and irrational numbers, relying instead on special extensions of polynomials called ‘power series’, which can have an infinite number of terms ...

Solving one of the oldest algebra problems isn't a bad claim to fame, and it's a claim Norman Wildberger can now make: The mathematician has solved what are known as higher-degree polynomial equations ...

A UNSW Sydney mathematician has discovered a new method to tackle algebra's oldest challenge -- solving higher polynomial equations.

But solving the bigger examples remained impossible. In 1832, French mathematician Évariste Galois showed why this could never be done. He demonstrated that the mathematical symmetry that was used to ...

Researchers have found a new way to solve high-degree polynomial equations, previously thought impossible for 200 years. This math breakthrough reopens algebra.

Although solving lower order polynomials—where the x in an equation is raised up to the fourth power—is often a simple task, things get complicated once you start seeing powers of five or greater.

Then in the 16th century, the approach of using roots of numbers dubbed "radicals" was extended to solve three- and four-degree polynomials.

For pt.2 see ibid., vol. 26, no. 4, p. 90-100 (2006). Our ultimate goal here is twofold. We want to get insight into how cubic polynomials work, what are the invariants/covariants and their geometric ...

Cubic and quartic functions are the natural extension of polynomials after quadratics, representing higher-order polynomials with degrees three and four respectively. Understanding these polynomials ...

Polynomials and power functions are the foundation for modelling non-linear relationships. Polynomial functions such as quadratic, cubic and quartic model variables raised to exponents of different ...
