Researchers have found a new way to solve high-degree polynomial equations, previously thought impossible for 200 years. This math breakthrough reopens algebra.

Adding to his extensive collection of simple but effective and clear math apps, Esa Helttula has now introduced Polynomial Long Division.

A UNSW Sydney mathematician has discovered a new method to tackle algebra's oldest challenge—solving higher polynomial equations.

A mathematician has solved a 200-year-old maths problem after figuring out a way to crack higher-degree polynomial equations without using radicals or irrational numbers.

Mathematicians Thought This Algebra Problem Was Impossible. Two Geniuses May Have Found a Solution. Polynomials above 4 degrees have a shiny new target on their back.

And finally, as part of modern math’s discovery of its own limits, absolute proof that no solution was possible for polynomials of higher values, a.k.a. the “general polynomial.” ...

But it was also a question about polynomials — those familiar expressions from math class involving sums of variables raised to different powers. At some point in school you were probably asked to ...

Vesselin Dimitrov’s proof of the Schinzel-Zassenhaus conjecture quantifies the way special values of polynomials push each other apart.

The polynomials that characterize complex engineering problems—like how to ensure a humanoid robot stays on its feet—can involve 50 or more variables.
