A new algorithm for factoring multivariate polynomials over the integers based on an algorithm by Wang and Rothschild is described. The new algorithm has improved strategies for dealing with the known ...

The basic facts about separable extensions of discrete fields and factoring polynomials are developed in the constructive spirit of Errett Bishop. The ability to factor polynomials is shown to be ...

In 2015, the poet-turned-mathematician June Huh helped solve a problem posed about 50 years earlier. The problem was about complex mathematical objects called “matroids” and combinations of points and ...

Matrix polynomials and moment problems are significant areas of study in mathematics, particularly in the fields of control theory, numerical analysis, and probability. Matrix polynomials are ...

A polynomial is a chain of algebraic terms with various values of powers. There are some words and phrases to look out for when you're dealing with polynomials: \(6{x^5} - 3{x^2} + 7\) is a polynomial ...

Two mathematicians have used a new geometric approach in order to address a very old problem in algebra. In school, we often learn how to multiply out and factor polynomial equations like (x² – 1) or ...
