Apr 12, 2011 at 18:18 comment added J.C. Ottem Ah, I thought the statement was 'any n-th degree polynomial can be solved in terms of some fixed function $B_n(t)$..' which seems false.
Apr 12, 2011 at 17:59 comment added Alan Wilder @JC define the Bring radical to be the polynomial itself.
Apr 12, 2011 at 17:29 comment added J.C. Ottem How is it obvious that every degree n polynomial can be solved in terms of one $B_n(t)$? It is well-known that the general 7th degree polynomial requires functions depending on two parameters - this is related to Hilbert's thirteenth problem..
