Math. 311 Spring 1999 HOMEWORK SUMMARY REPORT Assignment number: 1 Problem number: 1.1.6 Number of papers received: 2 Reviewing committee (Greek letter): gamma List all participating members: Brian Ward and Doug Clough Author[s] of paper[s] chosen for publication: [Quan Ninh] Comments: The papers were done neatly and their logic was easy to follow. We didn't however, feel that either of them were sufficient for publication. INSTRUCTOR'S COMMENT: In more detail: Neither paper completely simplified polynomial (b) to one of the forms a cos(2t) + b sin(2t) or c e^{2it} + d e^{-2it} (where a, b, c, d are certain complex numbers). See the F98 solution (which also has better commentary). However, Quan's paper came so close that the grader declared it OK.
