Hilbert’s 12th problem asked for novel analogues of the roots of unity, the building blocks for certain number systems. Now, over 100 years later, two mathematicians have produced them. Problems in ...

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

We provide a self-contained topological proof of the continuous dependence of the roots of a polynomial on its coefficients. We present it as a homeomorphism between the space of monic complex ...
