There are now several comprehensive web applications, stand-alone computer programs and computer algebra functions that, given a floating point number such as 6.518670730718491, can return concise nonfloat constants such as 3 arctan 2 + ln 9 + 1, that closely approximate the float. Examples include AskConstants, Inverse Symbolic Calculator, the Maple identify function, MESearch, OEIS, RIES, and WolframAlpha. Usefully often such a result is the exact limit as the float is computed with increasing precision. Therefore these program results are candidates for proving an exact result that you could not otherwise compute or conjecture without the program. Moreover, candidates that are not the exact limit can be provable bounds, or convey qualitative insight, or suggest series that they truncate, or provide sufficiently close efficient approximations for subsequent computation. This article describes some of these programs, how they work, and how best to use each of them. Almost everyone who uses or should use mathematical software can benefit from acquaintance with several such programs, because these programs differ in the sets of constants that they can return.

Various methods can obtain certified estimates for roots of polynomials. Many applications in science and engineering additionally utilize the value of functions evaluated at roots. For example, critical values are obtained by evaluating an objective function at critical points. For analytic evaluation functions, Newtons method naturally applies to yield certified estimates. These estimates no longer apply, however, for Holder continuous functions, which are a generalization of Lipschitz continuous functions where continuous derivatives need not exist. This work develops and analyzes an alternative approach for certified estimates of evaluating locally Holder continuous functions at roots of polynomials. An implementation of the method in Maple demonstrates efficacy and efficiency.
This paper is concerned with certifying that a given point is near an exact root of an overdetermined or singular polynomial system with rational coefficients. The difficulty lies in the fact that consistency of overdetermined systems is not a contin uous property. Our certification is based on hybrid symbolic-numeric methods to compute the exact rational univariate representation (RUR) of a component of the input system from approximate roots. For overdetermined polynomial systems with simple roots, we compute an initial RUR from approximate roots. The accuracy of the RUR is increased via Newton iterations until the exact RUR is found, which we certify using exact arithmetic. Since the RUR is well-constrained, we can use it to certify the given approximate roots using alpha-theory. To certify isolated singular roots, we use a determinantal form of the isosingular deflation, which adds new polynomials to the original system without introducing new variables. The resulting polynomial system is overdetermined, but the roots are now simple, thereby reducing the problem to the overdetermined case. We prove that our algorithms have complexity that are polynomial in the input plus the output size upon successful convergence, and we use worst case upper bounds for termination when our iteration does not converge to an exact RUR. Examples are included to demonstrate the approach.
We study the resolvent for nontrapping obstacles on manifolds with Euclidean ends. It is well known that for such manifolds, the outgoing resolvent satisfies $|chi R(k) chi|_{L^2to L^2}leq C{k}^{-1}$ for ${k}>1$, but the constant $C$ has been little studied. We show that, for high frequencies, the constant is bounded above by $2/pi$ times the length of the longest generalized bicharacteristic of $|xi|_g^2-1$ remaining in the support of $chi.$ We show that this estimate is optimal in the case of manifolds without boundary. We then explore the implications of this result for the numerical analysis of the Helmholtz equation.

Based on a class of associative algebras with zero-divisors which are called real-like algebras by us, we introduce a way of defining automatic differentiation and present different ways of doing automatic differentiation to compute the first, the se cond and the third derivatives of a function exactly and simultaneously.
Many algorithms for determining properties of real algebraic or semi-algebraic sets rely upon the ability to compute smooth points. Existing methods to compute smooth points on semi-algebraic sets use symbolic quantifier elimination tools. In this pa per, we present a simple algorithm based on computing the critical points of some well-chosen function that guarantees the computation of smooth points in each connected compact component of a real (semi)-algebraic set. Our technique is intuitive in principal, performs well on previously difficult examples, and is straightforward to implement using existing numerical algebraic geometry software. The practical efficiency of our approach is demonstrated by solving a conjecture on the number of equilibria of the Kuramoto model for the $n=4$ case. We also apply our method to design an efficient algorithm to compute the real dimension of (semi)-algebraic sets, the original motivation for this research.
