  2. Binomial coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_coefficient

    Since the number of binomial coefficients () with n < N is N(N + 1) / 2, this implies that the density of binomial coefficients divisible by d goes to 1. Binomial coefficients have divisibility properties related to least common multiples of consecutive integers. For example: [13]

  3. Binomial theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_theorem

    In elementary algebra, the binomial theorem (or binomial expansion) describes the algebraic expansion of powers of a binomial.According to the theorem, the power ⁠ (+) ⁠ expands into a polynomial with terms of the form ⁠ ⁠, where the exponents ⁠ ⁠ and ⁠ ⁠ are nonnegative integers satisfying ⁠ + = ⁠ and the coefficient ⁠ ⁠ of each term is a specific positive integer ...

  4. Gaussian binomial coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_binomial_coefficient

    The Gaussian binomial coefficient, written as () or [], is a polynomial in q with integer coefficients, whose value when q is set to a prime power counts the number of subspaces of dimension k in a vector space of dimension n over , a finite field with q elements; i.e. it is the number of points in the finite Grassmannian (,).

  5. Central binomial coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_binomial_coefficient

    For example, when =, the binomial coefficient () is equal to 6, and there are six arrangements of two copies of A and two copies of B: AABB, ABAB, ABBA, BAAB, BABA, BBAA. The same central binomial coefficient ( 2 n n ) {\displaystyle {\binom {2n}{n}}} is also the number of words of length 2 n made up of A and B within which, as one reads from ...

  6. Pascal's triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal's_triangle

    In mathematics, Pascal's triangle is an infinite triangular array of the binomial coefficients which play a crucial role in probability theory, combinatorics, and algebra.In much of the Western world, it is named after the French mathematician Blaise Pascal, although other mathematicians studied it centuries before him in Persia, [1] India, [2] China, Germany, and Italy.

  7. Binomial distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_distribution

    A Binomial distributed random variable X ~ B(n, p) can be considered as the sum of n Bernoulli distributed random variables. So the sum of two Binomial distributed random variables X ~ B(n, p) and Y ~ B(m, p) is equivalent to the sum of n + m Bernoulli distributed random variables, which means Z = X + Y ~ B(n + m, p). This can also be proven ...

  8. Pascal's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal's_rule

    In mathematics, Pascal's rule (or Pascal's formula) is a combinatorial identity about binomial coefficients.It states that for positive natural numbers n and k, + = (), where () is a binomial coefficient; one interpretation of the coefficient of the x k term in the expansion of (1 + x) n.
