  2. Geometrical properties of polynomial roots - Wikipedia

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

    Kahan discovered that polynomials with a particular set of multiplicities form what he called a pejorative manifold and proved that a multiple root is Lipschitz continuous if the perturbation maintains its multiplicity. This geometric property of multiple roots is crucial in numerical computation of multiple roots.

  3. Bézout's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bézout's_theorem

    This proves Bézout's theorem, if the multiplicity of a common zero is defined as the multiplicity of the corresponding linear factor of the U-resultant. As for the preceding proof, the equality of this multiplicity with the definition by deformation results from the continuity of the U -resultant as a function of the coefficients of the f i ...

  4. Zero of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_of_a_function

    It follows that the solutions of such an equation are exactly the zeros of the function . In other words, a "zero of a function" is precisely a "solution of the equation obtained by equating the function to 0", and the study of zeros of functions is exactly the same as the study of solutions of equations.

  5. Multiset - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiset

    These three multiplicities define three multisets of eigenvalues, which may be all different: Let A be a n × n matrix in Jordan normal form that has a single eigenvalue. Its multiplicity is n, its multiplicity as a root of the minimal polynomial is the size of the largest Jordan block, and its geometric multiplicity is the number of Jordan blocks.

  6. Equate (game) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equate_(game)

    Equate is a board game made by Conceptual Math Media where players score points by forming equations on a 19x19 game board. Equations appear across and down in a crossword fashion and must be mathematically correct. Because of its characteristics, the game is often described as a Scrabble with math. [1] [2]

  7. Riemann hypothesis - Wikipedia

    The other terms also correspond to zeros: the dominant term li(x) comes from the pole at s = 1, considered as a zero of multiplicity −1, and the remaining small terms come from the trivial zeros. For some graphs of the sums of the first few terms of this series see Riesel & Göhl (1970) or Zagier (1977) .

  8. Pentago - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentago

    The game is played on a 6×6 board divided into four 3×3 sub-boards (or quadrants). Taking turns, the two players place a marble of their color (either black or white) onto an unoccupied space on the board, and then rotate one of the sub-boards by 90 degrees either clockwise or anti-clockwise. This is optional at the beginning of the game, up ...

  9. Terrace (board game) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrace_(board_game)

    The game board for Terrace has either 64 or 36 squares of uniform color, arranged in L-shaped levels ("terraces") that rise stepwise from the board's lowest points in two diagonally opposite corners to its highest points in the other two corners. All pieces are shaped alike and move according to the same rules, but they are of four different ...
