Google marked Wednesday, November 12, with a special Doodle dedicated to the quadratic equation, which is one of mathematics’ most widely recognised and applied formulas. The animated Doodle ...

For almost two centuries, mathematicians believed there was no general solution for certain high-degree polynomial equations. Now, two Australian researchers—Norman Wildberger and Dean Rubine—have ...

A mathematician at Carnegie Mellon University has developed an easier way to solve quadratic equations. The mathematician hopes this method will help students avoid memorizing obtuse formulas. His ...

Abstract: The story behind the Euclidean algorithm and its relationship to the solution of the Diophantine equation is examined in this article. The Euclidean algorithm appears in Proposition 2 in ...

Polynomials are equations in which a variable is raised to different powers, like 1 + 4x—3x² = 0 (a degree-two polynomial). These equations are essential in math and science, helping explain things ...

A mathematician has built an algebraic solution to an equation that was once believed impossible to solve. The equations are fundamental to maths as well as science, where they have broad applications ...

New research details an intriguing new way to solve "unsolvable" algebra problems that go beyond the fourth degree – something that has generally been deemed impossible using traditional methods for ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Most people’s experiences with polynomial equations don’t ...

A mathematician has uncovered a way of answering some of algebra's oldest problems. University of New South Wales Honorary Professor Norman Wildberger, has revealed a potentially game-changing ...

A UNSW Sydney mathematician has discovered a new method to tackle algebra's oldest challenge—solving higher polynomial equations. Polynomials are equations involving a variable raised to powers, such ...

Abstract: The analysis of the Nash equilibrium (NE) in electricity markets with imperfect competition is subject to two major challenges: the treatment of multiplayer games and the determination of ...
