  2. Gauss–Legendre algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss–Legendre_algorithm

    The arithmetic–geometric mean of two numbers, a 0 and b 0, is found by calculating the limit of the sequences + = +, + =, which both converge to the same limit. If = and = ⁡ then the limit is (⁡) where () is the complete elliptic integral of the first kind

  3. Borwein's algorithm - Wikipedia

    Start by setting [4] = = = + Then iterate + = + + = (+) + + = (+ +) + + + Then p k converges quadratically to π; that is, each iteration approximately doubles the number of correct digits.The algorithm is not self-correcting; each iteration must be performed with the desired number of correct digits for π 's final result.

  4. Sigma-pi and equivalent-orbital models - Wikipedia

    Erich Hückel proposed a representation of the double bond as a combination of a sigma bond plus a pi bond. [7] [8] [9] The σ-π representation is the better-known one, and it is the one found in most textbooks since the late-20th century.

    Sigma and pi bonds in graphene. Sigma bonds result from an overlap of sp 2 hybrid orbitals, whereas pi bonds emerge from tunneling between the protruding p z orbitals. For clarity, only one p z orbital is shown with its three nearest neighbors.

  6. Bailey–Borwein–Plouffe formula - Wikipedia

    Using the P function mentioned above, the simplest known formula for π is for s = 1, but m > 1. Many now-discovered formulae are known for b as an exponent of 2 or 3 and m as an exponent of 2 or it some other factor-rich value, but where several of the terms of sequence A are zero.

  7. Sigma bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigma_bond

    According to the sigma bond rule, the number of sigma bonds in a molecule is equivalent to the number of atoms plus the number of rings minus one. N σ = N atoms + N rings − 1 This rule is a special-case application of the Euler characteristic of the graph which represents the molecule.

  8. Characteristic function (probability theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_function...

    For example, some authors [6] define φ X (t) = E[e −2πitX], which is essentially a change of parameter. Other notation may be encountered in the literature: p ^ {\displaystyle \scriptstyle {\hat {p}}} as the characteristic function for a probability measure p , or f ^ {\displaystyle \scriptstyle {\hat {f}}} as the characteristic function ...
