Nonlinear Algebra
By nonlinear algebra I mean things relating to multivariate polynomials
Linear modelling of nonlinear systems
Vandermonde Matrix
The big question: Linear in what? You can always determine a polynomial as a linear algebra problem given sample points. A polynomial can bethought of as linear in it’s coefficients
Companion Matrix
wiki A matrix designed to have characterstic polynomial
Sylvester matrix
Univariate Polynomials
We’re really good at these. Fundamental theorem of algebra

Homotopy Continuation
Grobner Bases
Cylindrical Algebraic Decomposition (CAD)
NLSAT
Modules
Linear algebra but wih rings instead of fields. You can’t divide by scalars anymore.
