  2. Polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial

    For example, the term 2x in x 2 + 2x + 1 is a linear term in a quadratic polynomial. The polynomial 0, which may be considered to have no terms at all, is called the zero polynomial . Unlike other constant polynomials, its degree is not zero.

  3. Integer-valued polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer-valued_polynomial

    The class of integer-valued polynomials was described fully by George Pólya . Inside the polynomial ring Q [ t ] {\displaystyle \mathbb {Q} [t]} of polynomials with rational number coefficients, the subring of integer-valued polynomials is a free abelian group .

  4. Meixner polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meixner_polynomials

    In mathematics, Meixner polynomials (also called discrete Laguerre polynomials) are a family of discrete orthogonal polynomials introduced by Josef Meixner . They are given in terms of binomial coefficients and the (rising) Pochhammer symbol by

  5. Laguerre polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laguerre_polynomials

    Complex color plot of the Laguerre polynomial L n(x) with n as -1 divided by 9 and x as z to the power of 4 from -2-2i to 2+2i. In mathematics, the Laguerre polynomials, named after Edmond Laguerre (1834–1886), are nontrivial solutions of Laguerre's differential equation: ″ + ′ + =, = which is a second-order linear differential equation.

  6. Orthogonal polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonal_polynomials

    n=0 of orthogonal polynomials is defined by the relations ⁡ = , , = . In other words, the sequence is obtained from the sequence of monomials 1, x, x 2, … by the Gram–Schmidt process with respect to this inner product.

    There is a series of numbers λ 0, λ 1, λ 2, ... that led to a series of polynomial solutions P 0, P 1, P 2, ... if one of the following sets of conditions are met: Q is actually quadratic, L is linear, Q has two distinct real roots, the root of L lies strictly between the roots of Q, and the leading terms of Q and L have the same sign.

  8. Dickson polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dickson_polynomial

    The Dickson polynomial D n (x, α) (considered as a function of x with α fixed) is a permutation polynomial for the field with q elements if and only if n is coprime to q 21. [ 9 ] Fried (1970) proved that any integral polynomial that is a permutation polynomial for infinitely many prime fields is a composition of Dickson polynomials and ...

  9. Factorization of polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization_of_polynomials

    If one of these values is 0, we have a linear factor. If the values are nonzero, we can list the possible factorizations for each. Now, 2 can only factor as 1×2, 2×1, (−1)×(−2), or (−2)×(−1). Therefore, if a second degree integer polynomial factor exists, it must take one of the values p(0) = 1, 2, −1, or −2. and likewise for p(1).
