[AI summary] The text provides an in-depth explanation of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, which states that every non-constant polynomial of degree $ n $ has exactly $ n $ roots in the complex number system, counting multiplicities. It walks through the proof by first establishing that every polynomial has at least one complex root (using the properties of continuous functions and the complex plane), then using polynomial division to factor the polynomial into linear factors, and finally addressing the nature of roots (real vs. complex) and their multiplicities. The text also touches on the conjugate root theorem, which explains why complex roots of polynomials with real coefficients come in conjugate pairs. |

The numbers are usually studied in layers of increasing subtlety and intricacy. We start with the natural, or counting, numbers $latex {\mathbb{N} = \{ 1, 2, 3, \dots \}}&fg=000000$. Then come the whole numbers or integers, $latex {\mathbb{Z} = \{ \dots, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, \dots \}}&fg=000000$. All the ratios of these (avoiding division... |

In honor of Pi Day 2023, I'd like to discuss Hilbert's 7th Problem, which in an oversimplified (and rather vague) form asks: under what circumstances can a transcendental function take algebraic values at algebraic points? The connection with $latex \pi$ is that Lindemann proved in 1882 that the transcendental function $latex f(z) = e^z$ takes... |

A norm on $latex \mathbb{C}^{m \times n}$ is unitarily invariant if $LATEX \|UAV\| = \|A\|$ for all unitary $latex U\in\mathbb{C}^{m \times m}$ and $latex V\in\mathbb{C}^{n\times n}$ and for all $latex A\in\mathbb{C}^{m \times n}$. One can restrict the definition to real matrices, though the term unitarily invariant is still typically used. Two widely used matrix norms... |
