چکیده
We investigate the fields with the property that any polynomial over the field which splits in the field has a derivative which also splits.

The diamond-alpha Riemann integral and mean value theorems on time scales
We study diamond-alpha integrals on time scales. A diamond-alpha version of Fermat’s theorem for stationary points is also proved, as well as Rolle’s, Lagrange’s, and Cauchy’s mean value theorems on time scales. Mathematics Subject Classification 2000: 26A42; 39A12.
متن کاملRolle’s Theorem Is Either False or Trivial in Infinite-dimensional Banach Spaces
We prove the following new characterization of C (Lipschitz) smoothness in Banach spaces. An infinite-dimensional Banach space X has a C smooth (Lipschitz) bump function if and only if it has another C smooth (Lipschitz) bump function f such that f ′(x) 6= 0 for every point x in the interior of the support of f (that is, f does not satisfy Rolle’s theorem). Moreover, the support of this bump ca...
متن کاملFrom Rolle’s Theorem to the Sturm-hurwitz Theorem
We present a proof of the Sturm-Hurwitz theorem, using basic calculus. Let f : R → R be a continuous 2π-periodic function, and let us assume that its Fourier series is given by (1) f(x) ∼ ∞
متن کاملA constructive proof of Simpson's Rule
For most purposes, one can replace the use of Rolle’s theorem and the mean value theorem, which are not constructively valid, by the law of bounded change [3]. The proof of two basic results in numerical analysis, the error term for Lagrange interpolation and Simpson’s rule, however seem to require the full strength of the classical Rolle’s Theorem. The goal of this note is to justify these two...
متن کاملThe Failure of Rolle’s Theorem in Infinite-dimensional Banach Spaces
We prove the following new characterization of C (Lipschitz) smoothness in Banach spaces. An infinite-dimensional Banach space X has a C smooth (Lipschitz) bump function if and only if it has another C smooth (Lipschitz) bump function f such that its derivative does not vanish at any point in the interior of the support of f (that is, f does not satisfy Rolle’s theorem). Moreover, the support o...
