Computer Algebra System - Mathematics Used in Computer Algebra Systems

Mathematics Used in Computer Algebra Systems

  • Symbolic integration - Risch algorithm
  • Hypergeometric summation - Gosper's algorithm
  • Limit computation - Gruntz's algorithm
  • Polynomial factorization. Over finite fields, Berlekamp's algorithm or Cantor–Zassenhaus algorithm is used.
  • Greatest common divisor - Euclidean algorithm
  • Gaussian elimination
  • Gröbner basis - Buchberger's algorithm; generalization of Euclidean algorithm and Gaussian elimination
  • Padé approximant
  • Schwartz–Zippel lemma and testing polynomial identities
  • Chinese remainder theorem
  • Diophantine equations
  • Quantifier elimination over real numbers - Tarski's method/Cylindrical algebraic decomposition
  • Landau's algorithm
  • Derivatives of elementary and special functions (e.g. see Incomplete Gamma function)

    The Buddha, the Godhead, resides quite as comfortably in the circuits of a digital computer or the gears of a cycle transmission as he does at the top of a mountain or in the petals of a flower.
    Robert M. Pirsig (b. 1928)

    Poetry has become the higher algebra of metaphors.
    José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)

    In all systems of theology the devil figures as a male person.... Yes, it is women who keep the church going.
