      <title>Time data is not being updated. What does that mean?</title>
      <link>http://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/220810-Time-Data-Is-Not-Being-Updated-What?ref=Feed:MaplePrimes:Version Maple 9</link>
      <itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;In the right bottom corner of the Maple window, there is data on Time, Bytes, and Available. My task is supposed to perform computation, however the Time data reached the value of 33393.1 s (about 9 hours) and is not being updated (the value does not increase) anymore for at least half an hour. Is this normal or does it mean that something is wrong with my computation process? Windows Task Manager indicates that CPU Usage is 100% and mserver uses about 40-50%. The procedure I use (diffalg(04), Rosenfeld-Groebner) is such that I have no idea how much time the task will require.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thank you&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Polynomial simplifications</title>
      <link>http://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/216764-Polynomial-Simplifications?ref=Feed:MaplePrimes:Version Maple 9</link>
      <itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;In the process of simplification I have the following multi-variable polynomial:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;y:=-8*C*d1^2*(-2+d1)*(-1+d1)^3*r*L*R^3+(d1^4*(-2+d1)^2*L^2-4*C*(-2+d1)*(4*d1^3-13*d1^2+16*d1-8)*(-1+d1)^2*r^2*L+4*C^2*(-2+d1)^2*(-1+d1)^4*r^4)*R^2+(2*d1^4*(-2+d1)^2*r*L^2-2*C*(-2+d1)*(5*d1^3-24*d1^2+32*d1-16)*(-1+d1)^2*r^3*L+4*C^2*(-2+d1)^2*(-1+d1)^4*r^5)*R+d1^4*(-2+d1)^2*r^2*L^2-2*C*(-2+d1)*(d1^3-6*d1^2+8*d1-4)*(-1+d1)^2*r^4*L+C^2*(-2+d1)^2*(-1+d1)^4*r^6&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This polynomial contains several (-2+d1), (-1+d1) terms with varying powers in each term. My question here is how to take out common terms and then form compact multi-variable polynomial (without having physical inspection).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you for your help.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background: white;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; font-size: 5.5pt;"&gt;the answer is "false"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="background: white;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; font-size: 5.5pt;"&gt;Is there any modification in the syntax "patmatch" is required.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="background: white;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; font-size: 5.5pt;"&gt;Here, my question is how to separate "a" and "b" in "a+sqrt(b)" (a, b are big expressions involving many variables).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="background: white;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; font-size: 5.5pt;"&gt;Thanking you advance for your help.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Polynomial roots simplifications</title>
      <link>http://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/216707-Polynomial-Roots-Simplifications?ref=Feed:MaplePrimes:Version Maple 9</link>
      <itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;I am solving "Fx=0" for geting "roots:x" using "solve(Fx,x)". Solution is in the form of&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;"a+sqrt(b)", "a-sqrt(b)"&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here my question is how to extract "a", "b" separately (a, b are complex and very big expressions).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you in advance for your help.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Polynomial simplification</title>
      <link>http://www.mapleprimes.com/questions/214792-Polynomial-Simplification?ref=Feed:MaplePrimes:Version Maple 9</link>
      <itunes:summary>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I am trying to simplify the following polynomial.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;gt; R1 := collect(((3*d1^2-2*d1-d1^3)*r-3*d1^2+d1^3+2*d1)*R^3+((-6*d1+7*d1^2-d1^3)*r^2+(d1-d1^3-3*d1^2+2)*r)*R^2+((-6*d1+6*d1^2)*r^3+(-4*d1^3+6-7*d1+2*d1^2)*r^2)*R+(2*d1^2-2*d1)*r^4+(-2*d1^2-4*d1+4)*r^3,[R,r,d],recursive);&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;With the "collect along with rucursive" unable to give compact version. In the above polynomial&amp;nbsp;most of the bracket terms will have factors([3*d1^2-2*d1-d1^3]=-d1*(d1-1)*(d1-2)), but the collect command unable give these factors, doing such manual simplification in bigger polynomial case is complex. Is there any way to&amp;nbsp;represent above polynomial&amp;nbsp;in compact form.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;Thanking you in advance.&lt;/p&gt;
