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 ...

Polynomial equations are fundamental concepts in mathematics that define relationships between numbers and variables in a structured manner. In mathematics, various equations are composed using ...

Expressions like the following are called polynomials in one variable. 0, -5, 7 etc. are examples of constant polynomials. The constant polynomial 0 is also the zero polynomial. Others like 7x + 9 is ...

Vesselin Dimitrov’s proof of the Schinzel-Zassenhaus conjecture quantifies the way special values of polynomials push each other apart. In the physical world, objects often push each other apart in an ...

Chebyshev polynomials, a central class of orthogonal polynomials, have long been pivotal in numerical analysis, approximation theory and the solution of differential equations. Their inherent ...

The amount of time it takes for an algorithm to solve a polynomial function, which is a mathematical expression that does not contain fractions or negative numbers. The time is proportional to the ...

A mathematician has uncovered a way of answering some of algebra's oldest problems. University of New South Wales Honorary Professor Norman Wildberger, has revealed a potentially game-changing ...
