  2. Polynomial root-finding algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_root-finding...

    Finding roots in a specific region of the complex plane, typically the real roots or the real roots in a given interval (for example, when roots represents a physical quantity, only the real positive ones are interesting). For finding one root, Newton's method and other general iterative methods work generally well.

  3. Complex conjugate root theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_conjugate_root_theorem

    In mathematics, the complex conjugate root theorem states that if P is a polynomial in one variable with real coefficients, and a + bi is a root of P with a and b real numbers, then its complex conjugate a − bi is also a root of P. [1] It follows from this (and the fundamental theorem of algebra) that, if the degree of a real polynomial is ...

  4. Bairstow's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bairstow's_method

    In numerical analysis, Bairstow's method is an efficient algorithm for finding the roots of a real polynomial of arbitrary degree. The algorithm first appeared in the appendix of the 1920 book Applied Aerodynamics by Leonard Bairstow. [1] [non-primary source needed] The algorithm finds the roots in complex conjugate pairs using only real ...

  5. Root-finding algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root-finding_algorithm

    In numerical analysis, a root-finding algorithm is an algorithm for finding zeros, also called "roots", of continuous functions. A zero of a function f is a number x such that f ( x ) = 0 . As, generally, the zeros of a function cannot be computed exactly nor expressed in closed form , root-finding algorithms provide approximations to zeros.

  6. Frobenius method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frobenius_method

    If the root is repeated or the roots differ by an integer, then the second solution can be found using: = ⁡ + = + where () is the first solution (based on the larger root in the case of unequal roots), is the smaller root, and the constant C and the coefficients are to be determined.

  7. Geometrical properties of polynomial roots - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometrical_properties_of...

    If the coefficients a i of a random polynomial are independently and identically distributed with a mean of zero, most complex roots are on the unit circle or close to it. In particular, the real roots are mostly located near ±1, and, moreover, their expected number is, for a large degree, less than the natural logarithm of the degree.

  8. Muller's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muller's_method

    Muller's method is a root-finding algorithm, a numerical method for solving equations of the form f(x) = 0.It was first presented by David E. Muller in 1956.. Muller's method proceeds according to a third-order recurrence relation similar to the second-order recurrence relation of the secant method.

  9. System of polynomial equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_polynomial_equations

    To extract all the complex solutions from a rational univariate representation, one may use MPSolve, which computes the complex roots of univariate polynomials to any precision. It is recommended to run MPSolve several times, doubling the precision each time, until solutions remain stable, as the substitution of the roots in the equations of ...
