When Newton's method, or Halley's method is used to approximate the $p${th} root of $1-z$, a sequence of rational functions is obtained. In this paper, a beautiful formula for these rational functions is proved in the square root case,…
We consider quantum computational models defined via a Lie-algebraic theory. In these models, specified initial states are acted on by Lie-algebraic quantum gates and the expectation values of Lie algebra elements are measured at the end.…
We suggest a closed solution for the roots of polynomial trinomial algebraic equation $$z^n+xz^{n-1}-1=0$$ with an appropriate $x$. This solution is a minor modification to the work of Mikhalkin (Mikhalkin E N, 2006. On solving general…

It is well-known that the equations for a simple fluid can be cast into what is called their Lagrange formulation. We introduce a notion of a generalized Lagrange formulation, which is applicable to a wide variety of systems of partial…
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…
A new version of the Graeffe algorithm for finding all the roots of univariate complex polynomials is proposed. It is obtained from the classical algorithm by a process analogous to renormalization of dynamical systems. This iteration is…
Everybody knows from school how to solve a quadratic equation of the form $x^2-px+q=0$ graphically. But this method can become tedious if several equations ought to be solved, as for each pair $(p,q)$ a new parabola has to be drawn.…

We propose a geometric explanation for the observation that generic quadratic polynomials over split quaternions may have up to six different factorizations while generic polynomials over Hamiltonian quaternions only have two. Split…
We consider systems of polynomial equations and inequalities in $\mathbb{Q}[\boldsymbol{y}][\boldsymbol{x}]$ where $\boldsymbol{x} = (x_1, \ldots, x_n)$ and $\boldsymbol{y} = (y_1, \ldots,y_t)$. The $\boldsymbol{y}$ indeterminates are…
Developments in algorithms over the past decade suggest that there is a new computational approach to a class of quantum field theories. This approach is based on rewriting the partition function in a representation similar to the…

In this paper, we study the algebraic points of degree $4$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ on the Fermat curve $F_5/\mathbb{Q}$ of equation $x^5+y^5+z^5=0$. A geometrical description of these points has been given in 1997 by Klassen and Tzermias. Using…
For quadratic spaces which represent 1 there is a characterization of hermitian compositions in the language of algebras-with-involutions using the even Clifford algebra. We extend this notion to define a generalized composition based on…
Using the complex Klein-Gordon field as a model, we quantize the quaternionic scalar field in the real Hilbert space. The lagrangian formulation has accordingly been obtained, as well as the hamiltonian formulation, and the energy and…
