Jenkins–Traub Algorithm
The Jenkins–Traub algorithm for polynomial zeros is a fast globally convergent iterative polynomial root-finding method published in 1970 by Michael A. Jenkins and Joseph F. Traub. They gave two variants, one for general polynomials with complex coefficients, commonly known as the "CPOLY" algorithm, and a more complicated variant for the special case of polynomials with real coefficients, commonly known as the "RPOLY" algorithm. The latter is "practically a standard in black-box polynomial root-finders". This article describes the complex variant. Given a polynomial ''P'', P(z) = \sum_^na_iz^, \quad a_0=1,\quad a_n\ne 0 with complex coefficients it computes approximations to the ''n'' zeros \alpha_1,\alpha_2,\dots,\alpha_n of ''P''(''z''), one at a time in roughly increasing order of magnitude. After each root is computed, its linear factor is removed from the polynomial. Using this ''deflation'' guarantees that each root is computed only once and that all roots are found. The ...

Root-finding Algorithms
In numerical analysis, a root-finding algorithm is an algorithm for finding zeros, also called "roots", of continuous functions. A zero of a function is a number such that . As, generally, the zeros of a function cannot be computed exactly nor expressed in closed form, root-finding algorithms provide approximations to zeros. For functions from the real numbers to real numbers or from the complex numbers to the complex numbers, these are expressed either as floating-point numbers without error bounds or as floating-point values together with error bounds. The latter, approximations with error bounds, are equivalent to small isolating intervals for real roots or disks for complex roots. Solving an equation is the same as finding the roots of the function . Thus root-finding algorithms can be used to solve any equation of continuous functions. However, most root-finding algorithms do not guarantee that they will find all roots of a function, and if such an algorithm does not fi ...

Newton's Method
In numerical analysis, the Newton–Raphson method, also known simply as Newton's method, named after Isaac Newton and Joseph Raphson, is a root-finding algorithm which produces successively better approximations to the roots (or zeroes) of a real-valued function. The most basic version starts with a real-valued function , its derivative , and an initial guess for a root of . If satisfies certain assumptions and the initial guess is close, then x_ = x_0 - \frac is a better approximation of the root than . Geometrically, is the x-intercept of the tangent of the graph of at : that is, the improved guess, , is the unique root of the linear approximation of at the initial guess, . The process is repeated as x_ = x_n - \frac until a sufficiently precise value is reached. The number of correct digits roughly doubles with each step. This algorithm is first in the class of Householder's methods, and was succeeded by Halley's method. The method can also be extended t ...

Companion Matrix
In linear algebra, the Frobenius companion matrix of the monic polynomial p(x)=c_0 + c_1 x + \cdots + c_x^ + x^n is the square matrix defined as C(p)=\begin 0 & 0 & \dots & 0 & -c_0 \\ 1 & 0 & \dots & 0 & -c_1 \\ 0 & 1 & \dots & 0 & -c_2 \\ \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \vdots \\ 0 & 0 & \dots & 1 & -c_ \end. Some authors use the transpose of this matrix, C(p)^T , which is more convenient for some purposes such as linear recurrence relations ( see below). C(p) is defined from the coefficients of p(x), while the characteristic polynomial as well as the minimal polynomial of C(p) are equal to p(x) . In this sense, the matrix C(p) and the polynomial p(x) are "companions". Similarity to companion matrix Any matrix with entries in a field has characteristic polynomial p(x) = \det(xI - A) , which in turn has companion matrix C(p) . These matrices are related as follows. The following statements are equivalent: * ''A'' is similar over ''F'' to C(p) , i.e. ''A ...

Golden Ratio
In mathematics, two quantities are in the golden ratio if their ratio is the same as the ratio of their summation, sum to the larger of the two quantities. Expressed algebraically, for quantities and with , is in a golden ratio to if \frac = \frac = \varphi, where the Greek letter Phi (letter), phi ( or ) denotes the golden ratio. The constant satisfies the quadratic equation and is an irrational number with a value of The golden ratio was called the extreme and mean ratio by Euclid, and the divine proportion by Luca Pacioli; it also goes by other names. Mathematicians have studied the golden ratio's properties since antiquity. It is the ratio of a regular pentagon's diagonal to its side and thus appears in the Straightedge and compass construction, construction of the dodecahedron and icosahedron. A golden rectangle—that is, a rectangle with an aspect ratio of —may be cut into a square and a smaller rectangle with the same aspect ratio. The golden ratio has bee ...

Rational Functions
In mathematics, a rational function is any function that can be defined by a rational fraction, which is an algebraic fraction such that both the numerator and the denominator are polynomials. The coefficients of the polynomials need not be rational numbers; they may be taken in any field . In this case, one speaks of a rational function and a rational fraction ''over ''. The values of the variables may be taken in any field containing . Then the domain of the function is the set of the values of the variables for which the denominator is not zero, and the codomain is . The set of rational functions over a field is a field, the field of fractions of the ring of the polynomial functions over . Definitions A function f is called a rational function if it can be written in the form : f(x) = \frac where P and Q are polynomial functions of x and Q is not the zero function. The domain of f is the set of all values of x for which the denominator Q(x) is not zero. However, ...

Rate Of Convergence
In mathematical analysis, particularly numerical analysis, the rate of convergence and order of convergence of a sequence that converges to a limit are any of several characterizations of how quickly that sequence approaches its limit. These are broadly divided into rates and orders of convergence that describe how quickly a sequence further approaches its limit once it is already close to it, called asymptotic rates and orders of convergence, and those that describe how quickly sequences approach their limits from starting points that are not necessarily close to their limits, called non-asymptotic rates and orders of convergence. Asymptotic behavior is particularly useful for deciding when to stop a sequence of numerical computations, for instance once a target precision has been reached with an iterative root-finding algorithm, but pre-asymptotic behavior is often crucial for determining whether to begin a sequence of computations at all, since it may be impossible or imprac ...

Ruffini Rule
In mathematics, Ruffini's rule is a method for computation of the Euclidean division of a polynomial by a binomial of the form ''x – r''. It was described by Paolo Ruffini in 1809. The rule is a special case of synthetic division in which the divisor is a linear factor. Algorithm The rule establishes a method for dividing the polynomial: :P(x)=a_nx^n+a_x^+\cdots+a_1x+a_0 by the binomial: :Q(x)=x-r to obtain the quotient polynomial: :R(x)=b_x^+b_x^+\cdots+b_1x+b_0. The algorithm is in fact the long division of ''P''(''x'') by ''Q''(''x''). To divide ''P''(''x'') by ''Q''(''x''): # Take the coefficients of ''P''(''x'') and write them down in order. Then, write ''r'' at the bottom-left edge just over the line: #: \begin & a_n & a_ & \dots & a_1 & a_0\\ r & & & & & \\ \hline & & & & & \\ \end # Pass the leftmost coefficient (''a''''n'') to the bottom just under the line. #: \begin & a_n & a_ & \dots & a_1 & a_0\\ r & & & & & \\ \hline & a_n & & & & \\ & =b_ & & & & \end # M ...

Horner Scheme
In mathematics and computer science, Horner's method (or Horner's scheme) is an algorithm for polynomial evaluation. Although named after William George Horner, this method is much older, as it has been attributed to Joseph-Louis Lagrange by Horner himself, and can be traced back many hundreds of years to Chinese and Persian mathematicians. After the introduction of computers, this algorithm became fundamental for computing efficiently with polynomials. The algorithm is based on Horner's rule, in which a polynomial is written in ''nested form'': \begin &a_0 + a_1x + a_2x^2 + a_3x^3 + \cdots + a_nx^n \\ = &a_0 + x \bigg(a_1 + x \Big(a_2 + x \big(a_3 + \cdots + x(a_ + x \, a_n) \cdots \big) \Big) \bigg). \end This allows the evaluation of a polynomial of degree with only n multiplications and n additions. This is optimal, since there are polynomials of degree that cannot be evaluated with fewer arithmetic operations. Alternatively, Horner's method and also refers to a m ...

Complex Number
In mathematics, a complex number is an element of a number system that extends the real numbers with a specific element denoted , called the imaginary unit and satisfying the equation i^= -1; every complex number can be expressed in the form a + bi, where and are real numbers. Because no real number satisfies the above equation, was called an imaginary number by René Descartes. For the complex number is called the , and is called the . The set of complex numbers is denoted by either of the symbols \mathbb C or . Despite the historical nomenclature, "imaginary" complex numbers have a mathematical existence as firm as that of the real numbers, and they are fundamental tools in the scientific description of the natural world. Complex numbers allow solutions to all polynomial equations, even those that have no solutions in real numbers. More precisely, the fundamental theorem of algebra asserts that every non-constant polynomial equation with real or complex coefficie ...
