Lizzie, it appears, has pioneered a new way of factoring quadratic equations. Or so she thinks.

Quadratic equations are polynomials, meaning strings of math terms. An expression like “x + 4” is a polynomial. They can have ...

Asymptotically, our algorithm will be as fast as the well-known factorization algorithm of Morrison and Brillhart. The latter algorithm will fail in several cases and heuristic assumptions are needed ...

Recurrence relations are derived that define the search direction and Lagrange multiplier vector through equations related to the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker system. Discussion is included of connections with ...
