  2. Sum and Product Puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sum_and_Product_Puzzle

    It becomes easier to solve with less calculations required. A reasonable value for u could be u = t·t/4 for the corresponding t based on the largest product of two factors whose sum are t being (t/2)·(t/2). Now the problem has a unique solution in the ranges 47 < t < 60, 71 < t < 80, 107 < t < 128, and 131 < t < 144 and no solution below that ...

  3. Square-root sum problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square-root_sum_problem

    Such lower bound is called a "separation bound" since it separates between the difference and 0. For example, if the absolute difference is at least 2-d, it means that we can round all numbers to d bits of accuracy, and solve SRS in time polynomial in d. This leads to the mathematical problem of proving bounds on this difference.

  4. Basel problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basel_problem

    The Basel problem is a problem in mathematical analysis with relevance to number theory, concerning an infinite sum of inverse squares.It was first posed by Pietro Mengoli in 1650 and solved by Leonhard Euler in 1734, [1] and read on 5 December 1735 in The Saint Petersburg Academy of Sciences.

  5. Summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation

    For example, summation of [1, 2, 4, 2] is denoted 1 + 2 + 4 + 2, and results in 9, that is, 1 + 2 + 4 + 2 = 9. Because addition is associative and commutative, there is no need for parentheses, and the result is the same irrespective of the order of the summands. Summation of a sequence of only one summand results in the summand itself.

  6. Coin problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coin_problem

    Frobenius coin problem with 2-pence and 5-pence coins visualised as graphs: Sloping lines denote graphs of 2x+5y=n where n is the total in pence, and x and y are the non-negative number of 2p and 5p coins, respectively. A point on a line gives a combination of 2p and 5p for its given total (green).

  7. Subset sum problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subset_sum_problem

    If any sum of the numbers can be specified with at most P bits, then solving the problem approximately with = is equivalent to solving it exactly. Then, the polynomial time algorithm for approximate subset sum becomes an exact algorithm with running time polynomial in n and 2 P {\displaystyle 2^{P}} (i.e., exponential in P ).

  8. Partition problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_problem

    The partition problem is a special case of two related problems: In the subset sum problem, the goal is to find a subset of S whose sum is a certain target number T given as input (the partition problem is the special case in which T is half the sum of S).

  9. Summation by parts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation_by_parts

    In mathematics, summation by parts transforms the summation of products of sequences into other summations, often simplifying the computation or (especially) estimation of certain types of sums. It is also called Abel's lemma or Abel transformation , named after Niels Henrik Abel who introduced it in 1826.
