| contents | In this note, we provide explicit expressions for the projections onto the graph of a quadratic polynomial. The projections are obtained by examining the critical points of the associated quartic polynomial, that is, the roots of the cubic polynomial defining its derivative. We also focus on the case where the point we project lies on the vertical line defined by the parabola. Lastly, an explicit formula for the projection onto a higher dimensional parabola is derived. |
