This paper shows an elementary and direct proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, via Bolzano-Weierstrass Theorem on Minima and the Binomial Formula, that avoids: any root extraction other than the one used to define the modulus…

Proofs of the fundamental theorem of algebra can be divided up into three groups according to the techniques involved: proofs that rely on real or complex analysis, algebraic proofs, and topological proofs. Algebraic proofs make use of the…

This paper presents an alternative proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra that has several distinct advantages. The proof is based on simple ideas involving continuity and differentiation. Visual software demonstrations can be used to…

We present a simple short proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, without complex analysis and with a minimal use of topology. It can be taught in a first year calculus class.

We report on a verification of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra in ACL2(r). The proof consists of four parts. First, continuity for both complex-valued and real-valued functions of complex numbers is defined, and it is shown that…

Many proofs of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, including various proofs based on the theory of analytic functions of a complex variable, are known. To the best of our knowledge, this proof is different from the existing ones.

We use Newton's method to find all roots of several polynomials in one complex variable of degree up to and exceeding one million and show that the method, applied to appropriately chosen starting points, can be turned into an algorithm…

There are several proofs of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, mainly using algebra, analysis and topology. In this article, we have shown that the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra can be proved using Nevanlinna's first fundamental theorem…

We give a new proof of the fundamental theorem of algebra. It is entirely elementary, focused on using long division to its fullest extent. Further, the method quickly recovers a more general version of the theorem recently obtained by…

This paper presents an elementary and direct proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, via Bolzano-Weierstrass Theorem on Minima, that avoids: every root extraction, angle, non-algebraic functions, differentiation, integration, series…

Section 10.4 of the 1998 Springer-Verlag book {\em Complexity and Real Computation}, by Blum, Cucker, Shub, and Smale, contains a particularly elegant proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra: The central idea of the proof naturally…

Newton's method for polynomial root finding is one of mathematics' most well-known algorithms. The method also has its shortcomings: it is undefined at critical points, it could exhibit chaotic behavior and is only guaranteed to converge…

Given any polynomial with real coefficients, the existence of a real quadratic polynomial factor is proven using only basic real analysis. The aim is to provide an approachable proof to anybody who is familiar with the least upper bound…

In this paper, we prove a number of results providing either necessary or sufficient conditions guaranteeing that the number of real roots of real polynomials of a given degree is either less or greater than a given number. We also provide…

Sturm's theorem (1829/35) provides an elegant algorithm to count and locate the real roots of any real polynomial. In his residue calculus (1831/37) Cauchy extended Sturm's method to count and locate the complex roots of any complex…

A simple but rigorous proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus is given in geometric calculus, after the basis for this theory in geometric algebra has been explained. Various classical examples of this theorem, such as the Green's and…

We present an elementary method for proving enumeration formulas which are polynomials in certain parameters if others are fixed and factorize into distinct linear factors over Z. Roughly speaking the idea is to prove such formulas by…

A very simple and short proof of the polynomial matrix spectral factorization theorem (on the unit circle as well as on the real line) is presented, which relies on elementary complex analysis and linear algebra.

We present an elementary proof of the fundamental theorem of algebra, following Cauchy's version but avoiding his use of circular functions. It is written in the same spirit as Littlewood's proof of 1941, but reduces it to more elementary…

The Collatz conjecture is explored using polynomials based on a binary numeral system. It is shown that the degree of the polynomials, on average, decreases after a finite number of steps of the Collatz operation, which provides a weak…
