This work is divided into three parts. The first part concerns polynomials in one variable with all real roots. We consider linear transformations that preserve real rootedness, as well as matrices that preserve interlacing. The second part…
Evaluating or finding the roots of a polynomial $f(z) = f_0 + \cdots + f_d z^d$ with floating-point number coefficients is a ubiquitous problem. By using a piecewise approximation of $f$ obtained with a careful use of the Newton polygon of…
Polynomial factorization and root finding are among the most standard themes of computational mathematics. Yet still, little has been done for polynomials over quaternion algebras, with the single exception of Hamiltonian quaternions for…
In this paper, a linear univariate representation for the roots of a zero-dimensional polynomial equation system is presented, where the roots of the equation system are represented as linear combinations of roots of several univariate…
We prove that any lower unitriangular and totally nonnegative matrix gives rise to a family of polynomials with only real zeros. This has consequences for problems in several areas of mathematics. We use it to develop a general theory for…
A new method of root finding is formulated that uses a numerical iterative process involving three points. A given function y = f(x) whose roots are desired is fitted and approximated by a polynomial function of the form P(x)= a(x-b)^N that…
We describe a new incomplete but terminating method for real root finding for large multivariate polynomials. We take an abstract view of the polynomial as the set of exponent vectors associated with sign information on the coefficients.…
The algorithms of Pan (1995) and(2002) approximate the roots of a complex univariate polynomial in nearly optimal arithmetic and Boolean time but require precision of computing that exceeds the degree of the polynomial. This causes…
For an odd prime $p$, we say $f(X) \in {\mathbb F}_p[X]$ computes square roots in $\mathbb F_p$ if, for all nonzero perfect squares $a \in \mathbb F_p$, we have $f(a)^2 = a$. When $p \equiv 3 \mod 4$, it is well known that $f(X) =…
In this article we use a method of finding the index of a complex-valued function by determined number of arithmetic operations to describe an algorithm of localization of roots of square-free polynomials. We give an estimation of the…
We introduce a new family of strong linearizations of matrix polynomials---which we call "block Kronecker pencils"---and perform a backward stability analysis of complete polynomial eigenproblems. These problems are solved by applying any…
Univariate polynomial root-finding has been studied for four millennia and very intensively in the last decades. Our new near-optimal root-finders approximate all zeros of a polynomial p almost as fast as one accesses its coefficients with…
We approximate the d complex zeros of a univariate polynomial p(x) of a degree d or those zeros that lie in a fixed region of interest on the complex plane such as a disc or a square. Our divide and conquer algorithm of STOC 1995 supports…
Until recently, the only known method of finding the roots of polynomials over prime power rings, other than fields, was brute force. One reason for this is the lack of a division algorithm, obstructing the use of greatest common divisors.…
We propose an improved algorithm for finding roots of polynomials over finite fields. This makes possible significant speedup of the decoding process of Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem, Reed-Solomon, and some other error-correcting codes.
We discuss computational procedures based on descriptor state-space realizations to compute proper range space bases of rational matrices. The main computation is the orthogonal reduction of the system matrix pencil to a special…
The main objective of this talk is to develop a matrix pencil approach for the study of an initial value problem of a class of singular linear matrix differential equations whose coefficients are constant matrices. By using matrix pencil…
We consider $m \times s$ matrices (with $m\geq s$) in a real affine subspace of dimension $n$. The problem of finding elements of low rank in such spaces finds many applications in information and systems theory, where low rank is…
We present a combination of two algorithms that accurately calculate multiple roots of general polynomials. Algorithm I transforms the singular root-finding into a regular nonlinear least squares problem on a pejorative manifold, and…
We address the general mathematical problem of computing the inverse $p$-th root of a given matrix in an efficient way. A new method to construct iteration functions that allow calculating arbitrary $p$-th roots and their inverses of…
