Roots of a cubic polynomial

Revision as of 20:43, 26 November 2023 by Petelomax (talk | contribs) (added Phix)

Find all eigenvalues of a real 3x3 matrix and estimate their errors.

Roots of a cubic polynomial is a draft programming task. It is not yet considered ready to be promoted as a complete task, for reasons that should be found in its talk page.

See Wikipedia Cubic equation. [1] Example.

a*x**3 + b*x**2 + c*x + d = 0

matrix: [[1,-1,0], [0,1,-1],[0,0,1]]

polynomial: [a,b,c,d] =[1, -3,+3, -1]

roots: [1,1,1]


matrix: [[1,-1,0], [0,1,-1],[0,0,1]]

polynomial: [a,b,c,d] =[1, -3,+3, -1]

roots: [1,1,1]

If the characteristic polynomial is not needed, the EGVL function directly returns the eigenvalues as a vector.

The eigenvalues of a 3 x 3 matrix will be the roots of its characteristic polynomial.

We borrow code from the Polynomial_long_division#Wren task to divide out this polynomial after each root is found.
