In a boon to algebra students everywhere, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University has devised a simpler and more efficient way to solve problems involving the quadratic equation. The new method was ...

Ah, math. Take an easy problem we all studied in our teens, scale it up by just a couple of steps, and suddenly you’re facing something that has stumped generations of the world’s best mathematicians.

The Abhyankar-Sathaye Problem asks whether any biregular embedding $\varphi \colon {\Bbb C}^{k}\hookrightarrow {\Bbb C}^{n}$ can be rectified, that is, whether there exists an automorphism α ∈ Aut Cn ...

Algebraic curves and polynomial systems form a cornerstone of modern computational and theoretical mathematics. These structures are defined by polynomial equations and exhibit rich geometric and ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract It is shown in this article that the two sides of an equation in the medieval Arabic algebra are aggregations of the algebraic "numbers" ...

The theory of Appell polynomials has long intrigued researchers due to its elegant algebraic structure and rich connections with differential equations. At its core, an Appell sequence is ...

When you need to measure temperature using thermistors, you face the challenge of linearizing their response to get accurate readings. One of the best methods for linearizing a thermistor is the ...
