  2. Proof of Fermat's Last Theorem for specific exponents

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_of_Fermat's_Last...

    Consider any primitive solution (x, y, z) to the equation x n + y n = z n. The terms in (x, y, z) cannot all be even, for then they would not be coprime; they could all be divided by two. If x n and y n are both even, z n would be even, so at least one of x n and y n are odd. The remaining addend is either even or odd; thus, the parities of the ...

  3. Matrix exponential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_exponential

    One of the reasons for the importance of the matrix exponential is that it can be used to solve systems of linear ordinary differential equations.The solution of = (), =, where A is a constant matrix and y is a column vector, is given by =.

  4. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

    This definition of exponentiation with negative exponents is the only one that allows extending the identity + = to negative exponents (consider the case =). The same definition applies to invertible elements in a multiplicative monoid , that is, an algebraic structure , with an associative multiplication and a multiplicative identity denoted 1 ...

  5. Frobenius method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frobenius_method

    One can divide by to obtain a differential equation of the form ″ + ′ + = which will not be solvable with regular power series methods if either p(z)/z or q(z)/z 2 is not analytic at z = 0. The Frobenius method enables one to create a power series solution to such a differential equation, provided that p(z) and q(z) are themselves analytic ...

  6. Lyapunov exponent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyapunov_exponent

    Whereas the (global) Lyapunov exponent gives a measure for the total predictability of a system, it is sometimes of interest to estimate the local predictability around a point x 0 in phase space. This may be done through the eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix J 0 (x 0). These eigenvalues are also called local Lyapunov exponents. [22]

  7. Beal conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beal_conjecture

    To illustrate, the solution + = has bases with a common factor of 3, the solution + = has bases with a common factor of 7, and + = + has bases with a common factor of 2. Indeed the equation has infinitely many solutions where the bases share a common factor, including generalizations of the above three examples, respectively

  8. One Direction gave Us some pretty memorable performances during their time on The X Factor UK. After auditioning as solo artists, Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik and Niall ...

  9. Power rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_rule

    Solving for , = = = = = Thus, the power rule applies for rational exponents of the form /, where is a nonzero natural number. This can be generalized to rational exponents of the form p / q {\displaystyle p/q} by applying the power rule for integer exponents using the chain rule, as shown in the next step.
