Exercise 5: The Theorem of Descent

%*Introduktion*:
%Hvis et $n$'te gradspolynomium $P$ har roden $z_0\,,$ kan $P$ omskrives således:
%
$$P(z)=(z-z_0)\cdot Q(z)$$
%hvor $Q$ er et entydigt bestemt $(n-1)$'te gradspolynomium. Men hvordan finder man $Q\,?$ Det gør man ved en divisionsalgoritme kaldet *polynomiers division* hvor $P$ divideres med førstegradspolynomiet $z-z_0\,.$ Divisionen går op, netop fordi $z_0$ er rod i polynomiet. %Eksempel: Tredjegradspolynomiet $\,P(x)=x^3-2x^2+2x-15\,$ har roden $3\,.$ Vi dividerer roden ud således: %\begin{center} %\includegraphics[trim=3cm 10.3cm 3cm 16cm,width=1.0\textwidth,clip]{billeder/MohrPolynomier2.pdf} %\end{center} %Konklusionen er at $P$ kan skrives på faktoriseret form således: %
$$P(z)=(z-3)\cdot (z^2+z+5)\,.$$

Exercise 6: Master the Concepts

Important clarifications concerning polynomials:

N
  • If a n‘th degree polynomial and a n‘th degree equation has equal coefficients, what is then actually the difference between them?

  • How many real roots has a complex polynomial of degree n?

  • How many real roots does a real polynomial of degree n have?

  • How many roots both real and complex does a real polynomial of degree n have?

  • About two n‘th degree polynomials P and Q it is known that every root in P is root in Q with equal algebraic multiplicity. Are the two polynomials identical?
