Graph polynomials serve as powerful invariants that encode both combinatorial and topological features of graphs drawn on surfaces. Beginning with the classical Tutte polynomial for planar graphs, ...

Learn about zeros and multiplicity. The zeroes of a polynomial expression are the values of x for which the graph of the ...

Learn how to use the tools needed to graph a Polynomial function in standard form. The tools we will use to help us graph are end behavior, finding the zeros by factoring synthetic division as well as ...

Polynomial optimization concerns the problem of finding global minima or maxima of multivariate polynomial functions subject to polynomial constraints. Such problems are inherently nonconvex and often ...

Long considered solved, David Hilbert’s question about seventh-degree polynomials is leading researchers to a new web of mathematical connections. Success is rare in math. Just ask Benson Farb. “The ...
