TLDR
In this paper, it was shown that for almost all polynomial systems of n complex variables, the number of solutions is equal to √ √ n q_i, where q is the degree of equation i. The proof of this result was done in such a way that all q solutions can be explicitly calculated.
Abstract
It is shown that for almost every system of n polynomial equations in n complex variables, the number of solutions is equal to $q \equiv \Pi _{i = 1}^n q_i $, where $q_i $ is the degree of equation i. The proof of this result is done in such a way that all q solutions can be explicitly calculated for almost all such systems.It is further shown that if the polynomial system obtained by retaining only the terms of degree $q_i $ in each equation i has only the trivial solution, then the number of solutions is equal to q.

Tensor Methods for Nonlinear Equations.

TL;DR: In extensive computational tests, a tensor algorithm is significantly more efficient than a similar algorithm based on the standard linear model, both on standard nonsingular test problems and on problems where the Jacobian at the solution is singular.

A methodology for solving chemical equilibrium systems

TL;DR: The problem can be solved by a unified approach, quickly and reliably, when many systems with the same structure must be solved quickly, as in finite-difference models of fluid flow and combustion.

Inverse eigenvalue problems

TL;DR: In this article, the classical inverse additive and multiplicative inverse eigenvalue problems for matrices are studied using general results on the solvability of polynomial systems and it is shown that in the complex case these problems are always solvable by a finite number of solutions.

Determining All Solutions to Certain Systems of Nonlinear Equations

TL;DR: The technique utilized was the so-called “complementarity” or “fixed point” approach to the Brouwer fixed point theorem, which was extended to calculate for certain systems not just one but all possible solutions.
