Any binary form \\(P_{k}(x,y)=\\sum_{i=0}^{k}a_{k-i}x^{k-i}y^{i}\\) of degree \\(k\\) over \\(\\mathbb C\\) splits into linear factors which define \\(1\\)-dimensional subspaces called the \\textit{roots} of \\(P_{k}\\). For a partition \\(k=k_{1}+\\cdots +k_{p}\\), let \\(S^{k}_{k_{1},\\dots ,k_{p}}\\) denote the set of \\(k\\)-forms with \\(k_{1},\\dots ,k_{p}\\) coincident roots, where \\(k_{i}\\) is omitted if it is \\(1\\), and the \\(p\\) groups of coincident roots are not assumed to be distinct. (For example, \\(k=2+1+\\cdots +1\\) corresponds to the space \\(S^{k}_{2}\\) of all \\textit{degenerate} forms.) \\(\\text{SL}(2,\\mathbb C)\\) acts on the manifold \\(S^{k}\\) of binary forms of degree \\(k\\), and the submanifold \\(S^{k}_{k_{1},\\dots ,k_{p}}\\) is invariant under this action. \\(S^{k}_{2}\\subset S^{k}\\) is defined by one equation (the discriminant \\(D=0\\)), but the \\(S^{k}_{k_{1},\\dots ,k_{p}}\\) with \\(k_{1}>2\\) are defined by systems of several polynomial equations in the \\(a_{i}\\), called ''higher discriminants''. The aim is to find these explicitly.   \\textit{J. V. Chipalkatti} [J. Algebra 267, No. 1, 246--271 (2003; Zbl 1099.13501)] calls \\(S^{k}_{k_{1},\\dots ,k_{p}}\\) a \\textit{coincident root locus}, and uses representations of \\(\\text{SL}(2,\\mathbb C)\\) to find the algebraic conditions. The article under review proposes a more elementary method. Select the chart \\(y\\neq 0\\) on \\(\\mathbb C P^{1}\\) and put \\(z=\\frac{x}{y}\\), so the roots \\(\\Lambda_{i}\\) of \\(P(x,y)\\) correspond to roots \\(\\lambda_{i}\\) of \\(P(z)\\). Then apply formal logic to transform statements about coincidence of roots (which define the \\(S^{k}_{k_{1},\\dots ,k_{p}}\\)) into an equivalent system of equations in the \\(\\lambda_{i}\\). These can be symmetrized, and then the Vieta formulae are used to obtain equations in the coefficients \\(a_{i}\\). The method does not always yield a system which is \\(\\text{SL}(2)\\)-invariant (e.g. \\(S^{3}_{3}\\)).   In general, the exposition is detailed and clear. The relation between the \\(\\text{SL}(2)\\)-orbits and the polynomials in general remains an open question, as does the generalization of this relation to dimension \\(n>2\\).   We point out that the notion of nondegeneracy used here is usually called nonsingularity in the algebraic theory of higher degree forms (and in algebraic geometry), where nondegeneracy refers to a weaker notion.","type":"string"},"datatype":"string"},"type":"statement","id":"Q2480108$8B5335C5-8AB1-4B98-9573-2477BFFAEAB3","rank":"normal"}],"P1447":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1447","hash":"acc8825afb1ce7b8ff7cbc2bdce3c2151b0213df","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":589792,"id":"Q589792"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"},"type":"statement","id":"Q2480108$0D35C0AB-1271-4346-A597-B33CB23C73A1","rank":"normal"}],"P226":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"1fd98ee712f85e43ff9029fa787b8edfa82ce1eb","datavalue":{"value":"11E76","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q2480108$48E75819-D3E4-41A2-A75C-933C54DDB666","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"54e45ffdb7e954cacb60b7a1e0ce0d2ee62a1d41","datavalue":{"value":"16W22","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q2480108$0DD13481-F64A-490F-9B7A-3D82F51FDD5C","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"5aff12e0aaa0e845f49257674dee6d6b35fe2903","datavalue":{"value":"15A63","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q2480108$54B13014-FE04-497D-A3C1-876242B32879","rank":"normal"}],"P1451":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1451","hash":"e3e2329607cad1e82bcae6a644e7659dcbaaa1cd","datavalue":{"value":"5255751","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q2480108$55DCE4EA-13C6-4920-9E1D-0490C2BD5EC8","rank":"normal"}],"P1450":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1450","hash":"7063c41242828af442f4f80e81d906e3906e3276","datavalue":{"value":"discriminant","type":"string"},"datatype":"string"},"type":"statement","id":"Q2480108$49D87FC9-D1A8-4136-973E-175AE1B20B4A","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1450","hash":"fae87d2c20fc5c4bf69d8491d661e843c664e06c","datavalue":{"value":"degenerate
