To remove brackets is to multiply the term outside the brackets by each term inside. Factorising an expression is to write it as a product of its factors. Check your understanding of the process with ...

We show that the binary expansions of algebraic numbers do not form secure pseudorandom sequences; given sufficiently many initial bits of an algebraic number, its minimal polynomial can be ...

Algebraic factorization and semigroup theory form a cornerstone of contemporary abstract algebra, investigating how elements within algebraic structures decompose into irreducible components, or atoms ...
