Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polynomials as mathematical objects have been studied extensively for a long time, and the knowledge collected about them is enormous. Polynomials appear in various fields of applied mathematics and engineering, from mathematics of finance up to signal theory or robust control. The calculation of the roots of a polynomial is a basic problems of numerical mathematics. In this book, an update on iterative methods of calculating simultaneously all roots of a polynomial is given: a survey on basic facts, a lot of methods and properties of those methods connected with the classical task of the approximative determination of roots. For the computer determination the choice of the initial approximation is of special importance. Here the authors offers his new ideas and research results of the last decade which facilitate the practical numerical treatment of polynomials.
