A University of New South Wales (UNSW) Sydney mathematician has revealed the first successful solution of an ‘impossible’ equation once considered unsolvable. Described as algebra’s oldest problem, ...

Mathematicians have devised a new way to solve higher-order polynomial equations, ... This sequence was first delineated by Mongolian mathematician Mingantu around 1730 and was independently ...

Polynomials and the Babylonians. Babylonians were the first to conceive two-degree polynomials around 1800 BCE. It was only in the 16th century that the concept evolved to incorporate three- and ...

Mathematicians have devised a new way to solve higher-order polynomial equations, ushering in a 'dramatic revision of a basic chapter in algebra'. Skip to main content Open menu Close menu ...

We present here alternative characterisations of Choice less Polynomial Time (with and without counting) based on iterated first-order interpretations. The fundamental mechanism of Choice less ...

We performed the polynomial regression analysis starting with a first-order polynomial (linear) and then proceeded, one order at a time, to a third-order polynomial. 9 We compared 2 models with the ...

Best-fit polynomial. We propose to use best-fit polynomial in step (3). In each non-overlapping segment, the trend of the time series is calculated by best-fit polynomial functions with the maximum ...
