Analytic Solutions to Algebraic Equations

Johansson, Tomas January 1998 (has links)
This report studies polynomial equations and how one solves them using only the coefficients of the polynomial. It examines why it is impossible to solve equations of degree greater than four using only radicals and how instead one can solve them using elliptic functions. Although the quintic equation is the main area of our investigation, we also present parts of the history of algebraic equations, Galois theory, and elliptic functions.
