A class of iterative techniques for the factorization of polynomials

Posted

A method of iteration is developed in terms of a function of somewhat arbitrary character. Sufficient conditions are given for convergence of the process, yielding factors of arbitrary degree for polynomials in one variable. Both Lin's method and Newton's method occur as special cases.
