We report on an original method, due to Majorana, leading to a semi-analytical series solution of the Thomas-Fermi equation, with appropriate boundary conditions, in terms of only one quadrature. We also deduce a general formula for such a…

We present a new method to calculate analytically the roots of the general complex polynomial of degree three. Thismethod is based on the approach of appropriated changes of variable involving an arbitrary parameter. The advantageof this…

Differential calculus is not a unique way to observe polynomial equations such as $a+b=c$. We propose a way of applying difference calculus to estimate multiplicities of the roots of the polynomials $a$, $b$ and $c$ satisfying the equation…

For bivariate polynomials of degree $n\le 5$ we give fast numerical constructions of determinantal representations with $n\times n$ matrices. Unlike some other available constructions, our approach returns matrices of the smallest possible…

In 1683 Tschirnhaus claimed to have developed an algebraic method to determine the roots of any degree $n$ polynomial. His argument was flawed, but it spurred a great deal of work by mathematicians including Bring, Jerrard, Hamilton,…

Consider real or complex polynomial Riccati differential equations $a(x) \dot y=b_0(x)+b_1(x)y+b_2(x)y^2$ with all the involved functions being polynomials of degree at most $\eta$. We prove that the maximum number of polynomial solutions…

We discuss numerical solution of Altarelli-Parisi equations in a Laguerre-polynomial method and in a brute-force method. In the Laguerre method, we get good accuracy by taking about twenty Laguerre polynomials in the flavor-nonsinglet case.…
