  2. Quintic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quintic_function

    Because they have an odd degree, normal quintic functions appear similar to normal cubic functions when graphed, except they may possess one additional local maximum and one additional local minimum. The derivative of a quintic function is a quartic function. Setting g(x) = 0 and assuming a ≠ 0 produces a quintic equation of the form:

  3. Abel–Ruffini theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abel–Ruffini_theorem

    Proving that the general quintic (and higher) equations were unsolvable by radicals did not completely settle the matter, because the Abel–Ruffini theorem does not provide necessary and sufficient conditions for saying precisely which quintic (and higher) equations are unsolvable by radicals.

  5. Thomae's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomae's_formula

    This formula applies to any algebraic equation of any degree without need for a Tschirnhaus transformation or any other manipulation to bring the equation into a specific normal form, such as the Bring–Jerrard form for the quintic. However, application of this formula in practice is difficult because the relevant hyperelliptic integrals and ...

  6. Bring radical - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bring_radical

    The general quintic may be reduced into what is known as the principal quintic form, with the quartic and cubic terms removed: + + + =. If the roots of a general quintic and a principal quintic are related by a quadratic Tschirnhaus transformation = + +, the coefficients and may be determined by using the resultant, or by means of the power sums of the roots and Newton's identities.

  7. Septic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septic_equation

    Septic equations solvable by radicals have a Galois group which is either the cyclic group of order 7, or the dihedral group of order 14, or a metacyclic group of order 21 or 42. [ 1 ] The L (3, 2) Galois group (of order 168) is formed by the permutations of the 7 vertex labels which preserve the 7 "lines" in the Fano plane . [ 1 ]

  9. Solution in radicals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solution_in_radicals

    A solution in radicals or algebraic solution is an expression of a solution of a polynomial equation that is algebraic, that is, relies only on addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, raising to integer powers, and extraction of n th roots (square roots, cube roots, etc.). A well-known example is the quadratic formula
