However, it requires a quadratic computational However, there are some curves in CAGD, Wang-Ball, DP time for their constructions. In computer aided geometric design and Dejdumrong curves with linear complexity. In order to (CAGD), there are some polynomial curves: Wang-Ball, DP and Dejdumrong curves, which have linear time complexity algorithms. reduce their computational time, Bezier´ curve is converted Thus, the computational time for Newton-Lagrange Interpolations into any of Wang-Ball, DP and Dejdumrong curves. Hence, can be reduced by applying the algorithms of Wang-Ball, DP and the computational time for Newton-Lagrange interpolations Dejdumrong curves. In order to use Wang-Ball, DP and Dejdumrong can be reduced by converting them into Wang-Ball, DP and algorithms, first, it is necessary to convert Newton-Lagrange Dejdumrong algorithms. Thus, it is necessary to investigate polynomials into Wang-Ball, DP or Dejdumrong polynomials. In this work, the algorithms for converting from both uniform and the conversion from Newton-Lagrange interpolation into non-uniform Newton-Lagrange polynomials into Wang-Ball, DP and the curves with linear complexity, Wang-Ball, DP and Dejdumrong polynomials are investigated. Thus, the computational Dejdumrong curves. An application of this work is to modify time for representing Newton-Lagrange polynomials can be reduced sketched image in CAD application with the computational into linear complexity. -

Euclid's Algorithm 171 Euclid's Algorithm Horner’s method is a special case of Euclid's Algorithm which constructs, for given polyno- mials p and h =6 0, (unique) polynomials q and r with deg r<deg h so that p = hq + r: For variety, here is a nonstandard discussion of this algorithm, in terms of elimination. Assume that d h(t)=a0 + a1t + ···+ adt ;ad =06 ; and n p(t)=b0 + b1t + ···+ bnt : Then we seek a polynomial n−d q(t)=c0 + c1t + ···+ cn−dt for which r := p − hq has degree <d. This amounts to the square upper triangular linear system adc0 + ad−1c1 + ···+ a0cd = bd adc1 + ad−1c2 + ···+ a0cd+1 = bd+1 . adcn−d−1 + ad−1cn−d = bn−1 adcn−d = bn for the unknown coefficients c0;:::;cn−d which can be uniquely solved by back substitution since its diagonal entries all equal ad =0.6 19aug02 c 2002 Carl de Boor 172 18.

By drawing as many diagonals as we could from one diagonal, you should be able to see a pattern...we can make n-2 triangles in a n-sided polygon. Given this information and the fact that the sum of the interior angles of a polygon is 180°, we can come up with a theorem that helps us to figure out the sum of the measures of the interior angles of any n-sided polygon!

CS321-001 Introduction to Numerical Methods Lecture 3 Interpolation and Numerical Differentiation Professor Jun Zhang Department of Computer Science University of Kentucky Lexington, KY 40506-0633 Polynomial Interpolation Given a set of discrete values, how can we estimate other values between these data The method that we will use is called polynomial interpolation. We assume the data we had are from the evaluation of a smooth function. We may be able to use a polynomial p(x) to approximate this function, at least locally. A condition: the polynomial p(x) takes the given values at the given points (nodes), i.e., p(xi) = yi with 0 ≤ i ≤ n. The polynomial is said to interpolate the table, since we do not know the function. 2 Polynomial Interpolation Note that all the points are passed through by the curve 3 Polynomial Interpolation We do not know the original function, the interpolation may not be accurate 4 Order of Interpolating Polynomial A polynomial of degree 0, a constant function, interpolates one set of data If we have two sets of data, we can have an interpolating polynomial of degree 1, a linear function x x1 x x0 p(x) y0 y1 x0 x1 x1 x0 y1 y0 y0 (x x0 ) x1 x0 Review carefully if the interpolation condition is satisfied Interpolating polynomials can be written in several forms, the most well known ones are the Lagrange form and Newton form.

Chess As a Key to Solving Nabokov's Korol', Dama, Valet
CHESS AS A KEY TO SOLVING NABOKOV’S KOROL’, DAMA, VALET James Murray Slater A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Radislav Lapushin Madeline Levine Christopher Putney ABSTRACT James Murray Slater: Chess as a Key to Solving Nabokov’s Korol’, dama, valet (Under the direction of Professor Radislav Lapushin) This thesis examines the role of chess in Nabokov’s novel, Korol’, dama, valet , and how the struggle between the narrator and the protagonist, Martha-Marta , can be justified by using chess as a key. The first portion of my analysis is based on the role of the diegetic narrator in an attempt to subvert Martha’s movements toward autonomy. In explaining the narrator’s subversion of Martha, I explore the nature of the protagonists, the movement of the narrative, and the structure and parameters of the novel in relation to it being a figurative game of chess. Furthermore, Martha’s attempts at dominance are examined in connection to the concept of past-reconstruction. I conclude my analysis by ushering in unifying intersections of plot and characterization in Nabokov’s later work. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter I. INTRODUCTION……………….……………………………….………1 II.

Lagrange & Newton Interpolation
Lagrange & Newton interpolation In this section, we shall study the polynomial interpolation in the form of Lagrange and Newton. Given a se- quence of (n +1) data points and a function f, the aim is to determine an n-th degree polynomial which interpol- ates f at these points. We shall resort to the notion of divided differences. Interpolation Given (n+1) points {(x0, y0), (x1, y1), …, (xn, yn)}, the points defined by (xi)0≤i≤n are called points of interpolation. The points defined by (yi)0≤i≤n are the values of interpolation. To interpolate a function f, the values of interpolation are defined as follows: yi = f(xi), i = 0, …, n. Lagrange interpolation polynomial The purpose here is to determine the unique polynomial of degree n, Pn which verifies Pn(xi) = f(xi), i = 0, …, n. The polynomial which meets this equality is Lagrange interpolation polynomial n Pnx=∑ l j x f x j j=0 where the lj ’s are polynomials of degree n forming a basis of Pn n x−xi x−x0 x−x j−1 x−x j 1 x−xn l j x= ∏ = ⋯ ⋯ i=0,i≠ j x j −xi x j−x0 x j−x j−1 x j−x j1 x j−xn Properties of Lagrange interpolation polynomial and Lagrange basis They are the lj polynomials which verify the following property: l x = = 1 i= j , ∀ i=0,...,n. j i ji {0 i≠ j They form a basis of the vector space Pn of polynomials of degree at most equal to n n ∑ j l j x=0 j=0 By setting: x = xi, we obtain: n n ∑ j l j xi =∑ j ji=0 ⇒ i =0 j=0 j=0 The set (lj)0≤j≤n is linearly independent and consists of n + 1 vectors. -
( ) Methods for Construction of Odd Number Pointed
Daniel DOBRE METHODS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF ODD NUMBER POINTED POLYGONS Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to present methods for constructing of polygons with an odd number of sides, although some of them may not be built only with compass and straightedge. Odd pointed polygons are difficult to construct accurately, though there are relatively simple ways of making a good approximation which are accurate within the normal working tolerances of design practitioners. The paper illustrates rather complicated constructions to produce unconstructible polygons with an odd number of sides, constructions that are particularly helpful for engineers, architects and designers. All methods presented in this paper provide practice in geometric representations. Key words: regular polygon, pentagon, heptagon, nonagon, hendecagon, pentadecagon, heptadecagon. 1.

Mathematical Topics
A Mathematical Topics This chapter discusses most of the mathematical background needed for a thor ough understanding of the material presented in the book. It has been mentioned in the Preface, however, that math concepts which are only used once (such as the mediation operator and points vs. vectors) are discussed right where they are introduced. Do not worry too much about your difficulties in mathematics, I can assure you that mine a.re still greater. - Albert Einstein. A.I Fourier Transforms Our curves are functions of an arbitrary parameter t. For functions used in science and engineering, time is often the parameter (or the independent variable). We, therefore, say that a function g( t) is represented in the time domain. Since a typical function oscillates, we can think of it as being similar to a wave and we may try to represent it as a wave (or as a combination of waves). When this is done, we have the function G(f), where f stands for the frequency of the wave, and we say that the function is represented in the frequency domain. This turns out to be a useful concept, since many operations on functions are easy to carry out in the frequency domain. Transforming a function between the time and frequency domains is easy when the function is periodic, but it can also be done for certain non periodic functions. The present discussion is restricted to periodic functions. 1IIIt Definition: A function g( t) is periodic if (and only if) there exists a constant P such that g(t+P) = g(t) for all values of t (Figure A.la). -
Volume 2 Shape and Space
Volume 2 Shape and Space Colin Foster Introduction Teachers are busy people, so I’ll be brief. Let me tell you what this book isn’t. • It isn’t a book you have to make time to read; it’s a book that will save you time. Take it into the classroom and use ideas from it straight away. Anything requiring preparation or equipment (e.g., photocopies, scissors, an overhead projector, etc.) begins with the word “NEED” in bold followed by the details. • It isn’t a scheme of work, and it isn’t even arranged by age or pupil “level”. Many of the ideas can be used equally well with pupils at different ages and stages. Instead the items are simply arranged by topic. (There is, however, an index at the back linking the “key objectives” from the Key Stage 3 Framework to the sections in these three volumes.) The three volumes cover Number and Algebra (1), Shape and Space (2) and Probability, Statistics, Numeracy and ICT (3). • It isn’t a book of exercises or worksheets. Although you’re welcome to photocopy anything you wish, photocopying is expensive and very little here needs to be photocopied for pupils. Most of the material is intended to be presented by the teacher orally or on the board. Answers and comments are given on the right side of most of the pages or sometimes on separate pages as explained. This is a book to make notes in. Cross out anything you don’t like or would never use. Add in your own ideas or references to other resources.
