| | | | | The following hints atwhy the quintic equation cannot be solved using radicals. It follows the approach in the first part of Ian Stewart's book "Galois Theory". If time permits, a future post will summarise the approach in V. B. Alekseev's book "Abel's Theorem in Problems and Solutions". Another candidate is Klein's book "Lectures on the... | |

| | | | | The algorithm for probabilistically embedding metric spaces into trees has numerous theoretical applications. It is a key tool in the design of many approximation algorithms and online algorithms. Today we will illustrate the usefulness of these trees in designing an algorithm for the online Steiner tree problem. 1. Online Steiner Tree Let $latex {G=(V,E)}&fg=000000$ be... | |
