  2. Recurrence relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recurrence_relation

    A recurrence relation is an equation that expresses each element of a sequence as a function of the preceding ones. More precisely, in the case where only the immediately preceding element is involved, a recurrence relation has the form. where. is a function, where X is a set to which the elements of a sequence must belong.

  3. Fibonacci sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_sequence

    Fibonacci sequence. In mathematics, the Fibonacci sequence is a sequence in which each number is the sum of the two preceding ones. Numbers that are part of the Fibonacci sequence are known as Fibonacci numbers, commonly denoted Fn . The sequence commonly starts from 0 and 1, although some authors start the sequence from 1 and 1 or sometimes ...

  4. Geometric progression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_progression

    The first block is a unit block and the dashed line represents the infinite sum of the sequence, a number that it will forever approach but never touch: 2, 3/2, and 4/3 respectively. A geometric progression, also known as a geometric sequence, is a mathematical sequence of non-zero numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying ...

  5. Linear recurrence with constant coefficients - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_recurrence_with...

    A linear recurrence with constant coefficients is an equation of the following form, written in terms of parameters a1, ..., an and b: or equivalently as. The positive integer is called the order of the recurrence and denotes the longest time lag between iterates. The equation is called homogeneous if b = 0 and nonhomogeneous if b ≠ 0.

  6. Constant-recursive sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant-recursive_sequence

    In mathematics, an infinite sequence of numbers is called constant-recursive if it satisfies an equation of the form. for all , where are constants. The equation is called a linear recurrence relation. The concept is also known as a linear recurrence sequence, linear-recursive sequence, linear-recurrent sequence, or a C-finite sequence.

    A Pythagorean triple can be generated using any two positive integers by the following procedures using generalized Fibonacci sequences. For initial positive integers hn and hn+1, if hn + hn+1 = hn+2 and hn+1 + hn+2 = hn+3, then. is a Pythagorean triple.

  9. Arithmetico-geometric sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetico-geometric_sequence

    v. t. e. In mathematics, an arithmetico-geometric sequence is the result of term-by-term multiplication of a geometric progression with the corresponding terms of an arithmetic progression. The n th term of an arithmetico-geometric sequence is the product of the n th term of an arithmetic sequence and the n th term of a geometric sequence. [1]
