Dr. Wataru Takeda, Department of Mathematics at the Faculty of Science, Toho University, has completely solved the polynomial analogue of the long-standing Brocard–Ramanujan problem, originally ...

Vesselin Dimitrov’s proof of the Schinzel-Zassenhaus conjecture quantifies the way special values of polynomials push each other apart. In the physical world, objects often push each other apart in an ...

In this math tutorial, we work through a basic polynomial division problem using synthetic division. We show the step-by-step process for dividing polynomials, focusing on how to divide a polynomial ...
