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…
It appears that, along with many of my friends and colleagues, I had been brainwashed by the great and tragic lives of Abel and Galois to believe that no general formulas are possible for roots of equations higher than quartic. This seemed…
There are some types of ill-conditioned algebraic equations that have difficulty in obtaining accurate roots and coefficients that must be expressed with a multiple precision floating-point number. When all their roots are simple, the…

The Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture predicts that the parity of the algebraic rank of an abelian variety over a global field should be controlled by the expected sign of the functional equation of its $L$-function, known as the global…
The well-known mathematical instrument for detection common roots for pairs of polynomials and multiple roots of polynomials are resultants and discriminants. For a pair of polynomials $f$ and $g$ their resultant $R(f,g)$ is a function of…
The computation of the topology of a real algebraic plane curve is greatly simplified if there are no more than one critical point in each vertical line: the general position condition. When this condition is not satisfied, then a finite…
A novel very simple method for finding roots of polynomials over finite fields has been proposed. The essence of the proposed method is to search the roots via nested cycles over the subgroups of the multiplicative group of the Galois…
In this note we extend the Dirac method to partial differential equations involving higher order roots of differential operators.
The Numerov method for linear second-order differential equations is generalized to include equations containing a first derivative term. The method presented has the same degree of accuracy as the ordinary Numerov sixth-order method. A…
