What is the simple test with exponential polynomials to determine whether $$f(x)=e^x+ax^2+bx+c$$ has a positive zero? This was prompted by the question about discriminants here. We have an ineffective ...

I have been attempting to understand my math education (as a bachelor in electrical engineering) from a more algebraic perspective recently. I would like to understand more about the link between ...

Let $\mathcal{E}$ be the minimal set of symbolic expressions (without any predefined meaning) such that The symbol $x$ is in $\mathcal{E}$, and If expressions $P,Q\in\mathcal{E}$, then the ...

I'm going to define an exponential polynomial of degree $k$ as a function $f$ of the form $f(x) = \sum_{i=1}^k c_ie^{\alpha_ix}$ ($\alpha_i$s real). My first question is: is there an algorithm for ...
