  2. Degree of a polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_of_a_polynomial

    For polynomials in two or more variables, the degree of a term is the sum of the exponents of the variables in the term; the degree (sometimes called the total degree) of the polynomial is again the maximum of the degrees of all terms in the polynomial. For example, the polynomial x 2 y 2 + 3x 3 + 4y has degree 4, the same degree as the term x ...

  3. Chebyshev polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev_polynomials

    Let's assume that w n (x) is a polynomial of degree n with leading coefficient 1 with maximal absolute value on the interval [−1, 1] less than 1 / 2 n − 1.

  4. Polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial

    In the case of polynomials in more than one indeterminate, a polynomial is called homogeneous of degree n if all of its non-zero terms have degree n. The zero polynomial is homogeneous, and, as a homogeneous polynomial, its degree is undefined. [c] For example, x 3 y 2 + 7x 2 y 3 − 3x 5 is homogeneous of degree 5. For more details, see ...

  5. Fundamental theorem of algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_theorem_of_algebra

    The numerator of the rational expression being integrated has degree at most n − 1 and the degree of the denominator is n + 1. Therefore, the number above tends to 0 as r → +∞. But the number is also equal to Nn and so N = n. Another complex-analytic proof can be given by combining linear algebra with the Cauchy theorem.

  6. Bernstein polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernstein_polynomial

    The n +1 Bernstein basis polynomials of degree n are defined as , (): = (), =, …,, where () is a binomial coefficient.. So, for example, , = () = (). The first few Bernstein basis polynomials for blending 1, 2, 3 or 4 values together are:

  7. Vieta's formulas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vieta's_formulas

    Any general polynomial of degree n = + + + + (with the coefficients being real or complex numbers and a n ≠ 0) has n (not necessarily distinct) complex roots r 1, r 2, ..., r n by the fundamental theorem of algebra.

  8. Cyclotomic polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclotomic_polynomial

    Over a finite field with a prime number p of elements, for any integer n that is not a multiple of p, the cyclotomic polynomial factorizes into () irreducible polynomials of degree d, where () is Euler's totient function and d is the multiplicative order of p modulo n.

  9. Monic polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monic_polynomial

    Let () be a polynomial equation, where P is a univariate polynomial of degree n. If one divides all coefficients of P by its leading coefficient c n , {\displaystyle c_{n},} one obtains a new polynomial equation that has the same solutions and consists to equate to zero a monic polynomial.
