SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis, Vol. 11, No. 6 (Dec., 1974), pp. 1087-1104 (18 pages) A composite algorithm has been designed for finding zeros of real polynomials. The algorithm has proved to be ...

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 ...

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 ...

If \((x \pm h)\) is a factor of a polynomial, then the remainder will be zero. Conversely, if the remainder is zero, then \((x \pm h)\) is a factor. Often ...
