  2. Splitting field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splitting_field

    The splitting field of xq − x over Fp is the unique finite field Fq for q = pn. [2] Sometimes this field is denoted by GF ( q ). The splitting field of x2 + 1 over F7 is F49; the polynomial has no roots in F7, i.e., −1 is not a square there, because 7 is not congruent to 1 modulo 4. [3]

  3. Ordinal arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordinal_arithmetic

    The ordinals do not have unique factorization into primes under the natural product. While the full polynomial ring does have unique factorization, the subset of polynomials with non-negative coefficients does not: for example, if x is any delta number, then x 5 + x 4 + x 3 + x 2 + x + 1 = (x + 1) (x 4 + x 2 + 1) = (x 2 + x + 1) (x 3 + 1)

  4. Matrix multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_multiplication

    In mathematics, particularly in linear algebra, matrix multiplication is a binary operation that produces a matrix from two matrices. For matrix multiplication, the number of columns in the first matrix must be equal to the number of rows in the second matrix. The resulting matrix, known as the matrix product, has the number of rows of the ...

  5. Matrix multiplication algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_multiplication...

    The definition of matrix multiplication is that if C = AB for an n × m matrix A and an m × p matrix B, then C is an n × p matrix with entries. From this, a simple algorithm can be constructed which loops over the indices i from 1 through n and j from 1 through p, computing the above using a nested loop: Input: matrices A and B.

  6. Legendre polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legendre_polynomials

    Expanding a 1/ r potential. The Legendre polynomials were first introduced in 1782 by Adrien-Marie Legendre [3] as the coefficients in the expansion of the Newtonian potential where r and r′ are the lengths of the vectors x and x′ respectively and γ is the angle between those two vectors. The series converges when r > r′.

  7. Finite field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_field

    A finite field is a finite set that is a field; this means that multiplication, addition, subtraction and division (excluding division by zero) are defined and satisfy the rules of arithmetic known as the field axioms . The number of elements of a finite field is called its order or, sometimes, its size.

  8. Classical orthogonal polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_orthogonal...

    The classical orthogonal polynomials arise from a differential equation of the form. where Q is a given quadratic (at most) polynomial, and L is a given linear polynomial. The function f, and the constant λ, are to be found. (Note that it makes sense for such an equation to have a polynomial solution. Each term in the equation is a polynomial ...

  9. Computational complexity of mathematical operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_complexity...

    The following tables list the computational complexity of various algorithms for common mathematical operations . Here, complexity refers to the time complexity of performing computations on a multitape Turing machine. [ 1] See big O notation for an explanation of the notation used. Note: Due to the variety of multiplication algorithms, below ...
