Strictly Real Fundamental Theorem of Algebra Using Polynomial Interlacing

Abstract: Without resorting to complex numbers or any advanced topological arguments, we show that any real polynomial of degree greater than two always has a real quadratic polynomial factor, which is equivalent to the fundamental theorem of algebra. The proof uses interlacing of bivariate polynomials similar to Gauss's first proof of the fundamental theorem of algebra using complex numbers, but in a different context of division residues of strictly real polynomials. This shows the sufficiency of basic real analysis a… Show more

“…Notably, we also assumed that Q(•, •) is factorisable. Since it can be approximated by Chebyshev polynomials, and, according to the strictly real fundamental theorem of algebra [21], it is possible to factorise polynomial function to two factors. Alternatively, one can use deep sets [20] as arguments to approximate Q(•, •).…”
