1 Root Finding

Intro

We mainly focus on single variable with a single equation. We are interested in f(x)=0f(x^{*}) = 0 or equivalently g(x)=xg(x) = x because f(x)=g(x)x=0f(x) = g(x) - x = 0.

What if there are multiple variables? Is there a reduction algorithm? Or just linear algebra? How to do an efficient brute force to find all roots?
