Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0721.00009.] The condition for a set of \(n\) homogeneous polynomials in \(n\) variables, with coefficients in a field to have a non-trivial zero in common in an extension of this field is given by a unique polynomial in the coefficients of these \(n\) original polynomials. This ``resultant is a universal object in a well defined sense. Furthermore, it is well studied. --- The author gives an algorithmic method to calculate the resultant of three polynomials in terms of a square-free decomposition and resultants of two polynomials. Also, the extension of these results to the general case of \(n\) homogeneous polynomials in \(n\) variables is discussed.
