... • If P(x) is a polynomial with real coefficients whose terms are arranged in descending powers of the variable, – the number of positive real zeros of y = P(x) is the same as the number changes in sign of the coefficients of the terms, or is less than this by an even number, and – the number of nega ...

Math 154. Norm and trace An interesting application of Galois theory
... Note that this takes care of characteristic 0. But of course what is more interesting is that even in positive characteristic, such as for finite fields, the trace is non-vanishing for separable extensions. Proving this (even uniformly across all characteristics at once) requires a better technique. ...

... If bn-k =1, then n-k must be placed between the first two numbers ……. If bn-k =k, then n-k must be placed after all the numbers from step n-k+1. • 1: We must place 1 after the b1st number in the sequence constructed in step n-1. ...
