  2. Generating function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generating_function

    Similar asymptotic analysis is possible for exponential generating functions; with an exponential generating function, it is ⁠ a n / n! ⁠ that grows according to these asymptotic formulae. Generally, if the generating function of one sequence minus the generating function of a second sequence has a radius of convergence that is larger than ...

  3. Stirling numbers and exponential generating functions in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stirling_numbers_and...

    The use of exponential generating functions (EGFs) to study the properties of Stirling numbers is a classical exercise in combinatorial mathematics and possibly the canonical example of how symbolic combinatorics is used. It also illustrates the parallels in the construction of these two types of numbers, lending support to the binomial-style ...

  4. Stirling number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stirling_number

    The mathematical motivation for this type of notation, as well as additional Stirling number formulae, may be found on the page for Stirling numbers and exponential generating functions. Another infrequent notation is s 1 ( n , k ) {\displaystyle s_{1}(n,k)} and s 2 ( n , k ) {\displaystyle s_{2}(n,k)} .

  5. Exponential formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_formula

    In combinatorial mathematics, the exponential formula (called the polymer expansion in physics) states that the exponential generating function for structures on finite sets is the exponential of the exponential generating function for connected structures. The exponential formula is a power series version of a special case of Faà di Bruno's ...

  6. Generating function transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generating_function...

    The main article gives examples of generating functions for many sequences. Other examples of generating function variants include Dirichlet generating functions (DGFs), Lambert series, and Newton series. In this article we focus on transformations of generating functions in mathematics and keep a running list of useful transformations and ...

  8. Eulerian number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eulerian_number

    In combinatorics, the Eulerian number (,) is the number of permutations of the numbers 1 to in which exactly elements are greater than the previous element (permutations with "ascents").

  9. Generating function (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generating_function_(physics)

    The generating function F for this transformation is of the third kind, = (,). To find F explicitly, use the equation for its derivative from the table above, =, and substitute the expression for P from equation , expressed in terms of p and Q:
