  2. Omega constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omega_constant

    The omega constant is a mathematical constant defined as the unique real number that satisfies the equation = It is the value of W(1), where W is Lambert's W function. The name is derived from the alternate name for Lambert's W function, the omega function. The numerical value of Ω is given by

  3. Lambert W function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambert_W_function

    The minimum value of x is at {−1/e, −1} In mathematics , the Lambert W function , also called the omega function or product logarithm , [ 1 ] is a multivalued function , namely the branches of the converse relation of the function f ( w ) = we w , where w is any complex number and e w is the exponential function .

  4. Successive over-relaxation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Successive_over-relaxation

    for a constant ω > 1, called the relaxation factor. The method of successive over-relaxation is an iterative technique that solves the left hand side of this expression for x, using the previous value for x on the right hand side. Analytically, this may be written as:

  5. Chaitin's constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaitin's_constant

    In the computer science subfield of algorithmic information theory, a Chaitin constant (Chaitin omega number) [1] or halting probability is a real number that, informally speaking, represents the probability that a randomly constructed program will halt.

  6. List of mathematical constants - Wikipedia

    For example, the constant π may be defined as the ratio of the length of a circle's circumference to its diameter. The following list includes a decimal expansion and set containing each number, ordered by year of discovery. The column headings may be clicked to sort the table alphabetically, by decimal value, or by set.

  7. Jacobi method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobi_method

    In numerical linear algebra, the Jacobi method (a.k.a. the Jacobi iteration method) is an iterative algorithm for determining the solutions of a strictly diagonally dominant system of linear equations. Each diagonal element is solved for, and an approximate value is plugged in. The process is then iterated until it converges.

  8. Modified Richardson iteration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modified_Richardson_iteration

    Modified Richardson iteration is an iterative method for solving a system of linear equations. Richardson iteration was proposed by Lewis Fry Richardson in his work dated 1910. It is similar to the Jacobi and Gauss–Seidel method. We seek the solution to a set of linear equations, expressed in matrix terms as

    However, the terms of the sequence will be different and a non-zero Lucas-Lehmer residue for non-prime M p will have a different numerical value from the non-zero value calculated when s 0 = 4. It is also possible to use the starting value (2 mod M p )(3 mod M p ) −1 , usually denoted by 2/3 for short. [ 2 ]
