If you’ve ever taken an algebra or physics class, then you’ve met a parabola, the simple curve that can model how a ball flies through the air. The most important part of a parabola is the vertex — ...

Hilbert’s 12th problem asked for novel analogues of the roots of unity, the building blocks for certain number systems. Now, over 100 years later, two mathematicians have produced them. Problems in ...

A new method for the simultaneous approximation of all the roots of a polynomial is given. The method converges for almost every initial approximation, the set of the exceptional starting points being ...

In this paper we present the implementation of simultaneous method for the determination of polynomial roots on a distributed memory multicomputer. The total cost of such a parallelization per ...
