Derivation

  1. Initial program 0.2

    \[\left({\left(a \cdot a + b \cdot b\right)}^{2} + 4 \cdot \left(\left(a \cdot a\right) \cdot \left(1 - a\right) + \left(b \cdot b\right) \cdot \left(3 + a\right)\right)\right) - 1 \]

  2. Taylor expanded in a around 0 0.0

    \[\leadsto \left(\color{blue}{\left({a}^{4} + \left(2 \cdot \left({a}^{2} \cdot {b}^{2}\right) + {b}^{4}\right)\right)} + 4 \cdot \left(\left(a \cdot a\right) \cdot \left(1 - a\right) + \left(b \cdot b\right) \cdot \left(3 + a\right)\right)\right) - 1 \]

  3. Simplified0.0

    \[\leadsto \left(\color{blue}{\left(\mathsf{fma}\left(2, a \cdot \left(a \cdot \left(b \cdot b\right)\right), {b}^{4}\right) + {a}^{4}\right)} + 4 \cdot \left(\left(a \cdot a\right) \cdot \left(1 - a\right) + \left(b \cdot b\right) \cdot \left(3 + a\right)\right)\right) - 1 \]

  4. Final simplification0.0

    \[\leadsto \left(\left(\mathsf{fma}\left(2, a \cdot \left(a \cdot \left(b \cdot b\right)\right), {b}^{4}\right) + {a}^{4}\right) + 4 \cdot \left(\left(a \cdot a\right) \cdot \left(1 - a\right) + \left(b \cdot b\right) \cdot \left(a + 3\right)\right)\right) - 1 \]
