Cubic form

In mathematics, a cubic form is a homogeneous polynomial of degree 3, and a cubic hypersurface is the zero set of a cubic form. In the case of a cubic form in three variables, the zero set is a cubic plane curve. In, Boris Delone and Dmitry Faddeev showed that binary cubic forms with integer coefficients can be used to parametrize orders in cubic fields. Their work was generalized in to include all cubic rings (a cubic ring is a ring that is isomorphic to Z3 as a Z-module), giving a discriminant-preserving bijection between orbits of a GL(2, Z)-action on the space of integral binary cubic forms and cubic rings up to isomorphism. The classification of real cubic forms is linked to the classification of umbilical points of surfaces. The equivalence classes of such cubics form a three-dimensional real projective space and the subset of define a surface – the umbilic torus. (Wikipedia).

Solving a Cubic Equation Using a Triangle

There is this surprising fact about cubic equations with 3 real solutions where an equilateral triangle centered on the inflection point can always be scaled/rotated by some amount such that its vertices will line up with the roots of the equation. But is there any way that this can be us

What are Cubic Graphs? | Graph Theory

What are cubic graphs? We go over this bit of graph theory in today's math lesson! Recall that a regular graph is a graph in which all vertices have the same degree. The degree of a vertex v is the number of edges incident to v, or equivalently the number of vertices adjacent to v. If ever

500 years of NOT teaching THE CUBIC FORMULA. What is it they think you can't handle?

Why is it that, unlike with the quadratic formula, nobody teaches the cubic formula? After all, they do lots of polynomial torturing in schools and the discovery of the cubic formula is considered to be one of the milestones in the history of mathematics. It's all a bit of a mystery and ou
