Our title challenges the reader to venture beyond linear algebra in designing models and in thinking about numerical algorithms for identifying solutions. This article accompanies the authors lecture at the International Congress of Mathematicians 2022. It covers recent advances in the study of critical point equations in optimization and statistics, and it explores the role of nonlinear algebra in the study of linear PDE with constant coefficients.

A reciprocal linear space is the image of a linear space under coordinate-wise inversion. These fundamental varieties describe the analytic centers of hyperplane arrangements and appear as part of the defining equations of the central path of a linea r program. Their structure is controlled by an underlying matroid. This provides a large family of hyperbolic varieties, recently introduced by Shamovich and Vinnikov. Here we give a definite determinantal representation to the Chow form of a reciprocal linear space. One consequence is the existence of symmetric rank-one Ulrich sheaves on reciprocal linear spaces. Another is a representation of the entropic discriminant as a sum of squares. For generic linear spaces, the determinantal formulas obtained are closely related to the Laplacian of the complete graph and generalizations to simplicial matroids. This raises interesting questions about the combinatorics of hyperbolic varieties and connections with the positive Grassmannian.
In this paper we develop techniques that eliminate the need of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH) from various (almost all) known results about deterministic polynomial factoring over finite fields. Our main result shows that given a polynomial f(x) of degree n over a finite field k, we can find in deterministic poly(n^{log n},log |k|) time either a nontrivial factor of f(x) or a nontrivial automorphism of k[x]/(f(x)) of order n. This main tool leads to various new GRH-free results, most striking of which are: (1) Given a noncommutative algebra over a finite field, we can find a zero divisor in deterministic subexponential time. (2) Given a positive integer r such that either 8|r or r has at least two distinct odd prime factors. There is a deterministic polynomial time algorithm to find a nontrivial factor of the r-th cyclotomic polynomial over a finite field. In this paper, following the seminal work of Lenstra (1991) on constructing isomorphisms between finite fields, we further generalize classical Galois theory constructs like cyclotomic extensions, Kummer extensions, Teichmuller subgroups, to the case of commutative semisimple algebras with automorphisms. These generalized constructs help eliminate the dependence on GRH.
We define the concept of Tschirnhaus-Weierstrass curve, named after the Weierstrass form of an elliptic curve and Tschirnhaus transformations. Every pointed curve has a Tschirnhaus-Weierstrass form, and this representation is unique up to a scaling o f variables. This is useful for computing isomorphisms between curves.
The image of the principal minor map for n x n-matrices is shown to be closed. In the 19th century, Nansen and Muir studied the implicitization problem of finding all relations among principal minors when n=4. We complete their partial results by con structing explicit polynomials of degree 12 that scheme-theoretically define this affine variety and also its projective closure in $PP^{15}$. The latter is the main component in the singular locus of the 2 x 2 x 2 x 2-hyperdeterminant.
Let V be a smooth equidimensional quasi-affine variety of dimension r over the complex numbers $C$ and let $F$ be a $(ptimes s)$-matrix of coordinate functions of $C[V]$, where $sge p+r$. The pair $(V,F)$ determines a vector bundle $E$ of rank $s-p$ over $W:={xin V:mathrm{rk} F(x)=p}$. We associate with $(V,F)$ a descending chain of degeneracy loci of E (the generic polar varieties of $V$ represent a typical example of this situation). The maximal degree of these degeneracy loci constitutes the essential ingredient for the uniform, bounded error probabilistic pseudo-polynomial time algorithm which we are going to design and which solves a series of computational elimination problems that can be formulated in this framework. We describe applications to polynomial equation solving over the reals and to the computation of a generic fiber of a dominant endomorphism of an affine space.
