A quadratic equation is drawn as a curve on a set of axes. This type of curve is called a parabola and it is symmetrical. To draw the graph we need coordinates. We generate these coordinates by ...

For many, the phrase “quadratic equation” brings back memories of high school algebra classes and a tangled mess of variables and numbers. Yet, this fundamental mathematical concept is a powerful tool ...

Looking for the answers to ax² + bx + c = 0? A mathematician has rediscovered a technique that the ancient Babylonians used. By Kenneth Chang and Jonathan Corum The quadratic equation has frustrated ...

Abstract: We formulate a new approach to understanding the behavior of the min-sum algorithm by exploiting the properties of graph covers. First, we present a new, natural characterization of scaled ...
