We present an alternative relatively easy way to understand and determine the zeros of a quintic whose Galois group is isomorphic to the group of rotational symmetries of a regular icosahedron. The extensive algebraic procedures of Klein in…
We present an exposition of the icosahedral solution of the quintic equation first described in Klein's classic work "Lectures on the icosahedron and the solution of equations of the fifth degree". Although we are heavily influenced by…
The requirement for solving a polynomial is a means of breaking its symmetry, which in the case of the quintic, is that of the symmetric group S_5. Induced by its five-dimensional linear permutation representation is a three-dimensional…
Exploiting the symmetry of the regular icosahedron, Peter Doyle and Curt McMullen constructed a solution to the quintic equation. Their algorithm relied on the dynamics of a certain icosahedral equivariant map for which the icosahedron's…

According to the Abel-Ruffini theorem [1] and Galois theory [2], there is no solution in finite radicals to the general quintic equation. This article takes a different approach and proposes a new method to solve the quintic by iteration of…
After Abel Ruffini theorem and Galois Theory the search for a method or formula to solve quintic equation ends. This paper discuss about the radical solution of quintic equation using a method that could be proved in some simple steps. A…
In his famous book, Felix Klein describes a complex variable for the quotients of the ordinary sphere by the finite groups of rotations and in particular for the most complex situation of the quotient by the symmetry group of the…
It is well-known that Klein's lectures on the icosahedron and the solution of equations of fifth degree is one of the most important and influential books of 19th-century mathematics. In the present paper, we will give the complex…
There is a family of seventh-degree polynomials $H$ whose members possess the symmetries of a simple group of order 168. This group has an elegant action on the complex projective plane. Developing some of the action's rich algebraic and…
This article shows how to find the solution of an arbitrary quintic equation by performing two simultaneous folds on a sheet of paper. The folds achieve specific incidences between a set of points and lines that are determined by the…
We present an algorithm to determine the Galois group of an irreducible monic polynomial $f(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ of degree at most five. Following work of Conrad, Dummit, and Stauduhar this comes down to answering two questions: Is a given…
Euler's solution in 1734 of the Basel problem, which asks for a closed form expression for the sum of the reciprocals of all perfect squares, is one of the most celebrated results of mathematical analysis. In the modern era, numerous proofs…

After the 1916 success of General relativity that explained gravity by adding time as a fourth dimension, physicists have been trying to explain other physical fields by adding extra dimensions. In 1921, Kaluza and Klein has shown that…
A celebrated theorem of Klein implies that any hypergeometric differential equation with algebraic solutions is a pull-back of one of the few standard hypergeometric equations with algebraic solutions. The most interesting cases are…
