  • Simplification of Radical Expressions
    Simplification of Radical Expressions by B. F. Caviness (I) Computer Science Department lllinois Institute of Technology Chicago, lllinois and R. J. Fateman Computer Science Division Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences University of California at Berkeley Berkeley, California Abstract As is the case with all simplification problems there are three desirable attributes for In this paper we discuss the problem of any solution. First it is desirable to have a simplifying unnested radical expressions. We clean theoretical solution to the problem. Second describe an algorithm implemented in ~CSYMA that the algorithms to carry out the simplifications simplifies radical expressions and then follow should be as efficient as possible, and finally the this description with a formal treatment of the solution should have good human engineering features, problem. Theoretical computing times for some of i.e., the use and actions of the simplification the algorithms are briefly discussed as is related procedures should be as natural and transparent as work of other authors. possible. Unfortunately these three aspects of a solution are not usually compatible with each other I. Introduction and compromises and choices must be made. This is certainly the case for the simplification of radical In this paper we discuss the problem of expressions. Standard techniques from the theory simplifying unnested radical expressions. By of algebraic field extensions can be used to get a radical expressions we mean, roughly speaking, nice theoretical solution to the problem. However sums, differences, products, and quotients of the nice theoretical solution neither leads to fast rational functions raised to rational powers. algorithms nor possesses nice human engineering Thus we will be discussing algorithms for carrying features.

  • Simplifying Square Roots of Square Roots by Denesting 63
    4 Simplifying Square Ro ots of Square Ro ots by Denesting David J. Je rey Alb ert D. Rich The UniversityofWestern Ontario Soft Warehouse, Inc. Abstract: We discuss why it is imp ortant to try to simplify the square ro ot of an expression containing other square ro ots, and we give rules for doing this when it is p ossible. The square ro ot of an expression containing nth ro ots is also considered brie y. This article, in addition to treating a sp eci c mathematical topic, shows some of the steps that develop ers must take when writing computer algebra systems. 4.1 Intro duction p p 3 1 2 and 5 are called surds [Chrystal64, Hall88]. The more general Numb ers suchas terms radical and algebraic number are also used, but surd is the most sp eci c. It is 2 avenerable term that has b een revived for use in computer systems . Given p ositive n integers n and k , the unique p ositive real ro ot of the equation x = k will b e denoted p n k and called a surd. Most b o oks [Chrystal64, Hall88]allow k to b e a p ositive rational numb er, and there is no great di erence in principle if we accept that generalization; in this article, however, all the examples use integers. Another p ointofvariation is p p 8or2 2; here we the treatment of p erfect-p ower factors, i.e., whether one writes use whichever form is more convenient. The term radical may b e familiar to some readers from the common phrase `solvable in terms of radicals', which is used whenever a textb o ok discusses the ro ots of a p olynomial [Dickson26].

  • Quantitative Literacy: Why Numeracy Matters for Schools and Colleges, Held at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington, D.C., on December 1–2, 2001
    NATIONAL COUNCIL ON EDUCATION AND THE DISCIPLINES The goal of the National Council on Education and the Disciplines (NCED) is to advance a vision that will unify and guide efforts to strengthen K-16 education in the United States. In pursuing this aim, NCED especially focuses on the continuity and quality of learning in the later years of high school and the early years of college. From its home at The Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation, NCED draws on the energy and expertise of scholars and educators in the disciplines to address the school-college continuum. At the heart of its work is a national reexamination of the core literacies—quantitative, scientific, historical, and communicative — that are essential to the coherent, forward-looking education all students deserve. Copyright © 2003 by The National Council on Education and the Disciplines All rights reserved. International Standard Book Number: 0-9709547-1-9 Printed in the United States of America. Foreword ROBERT ORRILL “Quantitative literacy, in my view, means knowing how to reason and how to think, and it is all but absent from our curricula today.” Gina Kolata (1997) Increasingly, numbers do our thinking for us. They tell us which medication to take, what policy to support, and why one course of action is better than another. These days any proposal put forward without numbers is a nonstarter. Theodore Porter does not exaggerate when he writes: “By now numbers surround us. No important aspect of life is beyond their reach” (Porter, 1997). Numbers, of course, have long been important in the management of life, but they have never been so ubiquitous as they are now.

  • Ramanujan's Route to Roots of Roots
    Ramanujan's route to roots of roots Talk in IIT Madras on the occasion of s r q p Ramanujan's 1 + 119 1 + 120 1 + 121 ¢ ¢ ¢-th birthday B.Sury Stat-Math Unit Indian Statistical Institute Bangalore Introduction The fancy title points out to a subject which originated with Ramanujan or, at least, one to which he gave crucial impetus to. We can't help but feel a sense of bewilderment on encountering formulae such as q s s s 3 p 1 2 4 3 2 ¡ 1 = 3 ¡ 3 + 3 ; 9 9 9 q p p 1 p p 3 28 ¡ 3 27 = ¡ (¡ 3 98 + 3 28 + 1); 3 q p p 1 p p p 3 5 ¡ 3 4 = (¡ 3 25 + 3 20 + 3 2); 3 s s s s p 2¼ 4¼ 8¼ 3 5 ¡ 3 7 3 cos + 3 cos + 3 cos = ; 7 7 7 2 q s s 6 p 5 2 7 3 20 ¡ 19 = 3 ¡ 3 ; 3 3 r q p p 8 ¡ 8 + 8 ¡ ¢ ¢ ¢ = 1 + 2 3 sin 20±; s r q p p 23 ¡ 2 23 + 2 23 + 2 23 ¡ ¢ ¢ ¢ = 1 + 4 3 sin 20±; s p p e¡2¼=5 e¡2¼ e¡4¼ e¡6¼ 5 + 5 5 + 1 ¢ ¢ ¢ = ¡ : 1+ 1+ 1+ 1+ 2 2 The last expressions for the so-called Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction appeared in Ramanujan's ¯rst letter to Hardy. These formulae are among some problems posed by Ramanujan in the Journal of the Indian Mathemat- ical Society. As was usual with Ramanujan, he had a general formula hidden in the background and, singled out striking special cases in these problem sections.
