  2. Tetration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetration

    In 2017, it was proven [15] that there exists a unique function F which is a solution of the equation F(z + 1) = exp(F(z)) and satisfies the additional conditions that F(0) = 1 and F(z) approaches the fixed points of the logarithm (roughly 0.318 ± 1.337i) as z approaches ±i∞ and that F is holomorphic in the whole complex z-plane, except the ...

  3. Arithmetic progression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_progression

    where is the number of terms in the progression and is the common difference between terms. The formula is essentially the same as the formula for the standard deviation of a discrete uniform distribution , interpreting the arithmetic progression as a set of equally probable outcomes.

  4. nth-term test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nth-term_test

    In mathematics, the nth-term test for divergence [1] is a simple test for the divergence of an infinite series: If ...

  5. Recurrence relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recurrence_relation

    In mathematics, a recurrence relation is an equation according to which the th term of a sequence of numbers is equal to some combination of the previous terms. Often, only k {\displaystyle k} previous terms of the sequence appear in the equation, for a parameter k {\displaystyle k} that is independent of n {\displaystyle n} ; this number k ...

    Hence the n-th solution is a n = ⁠ H 2n +1 − 1 / 2 ⁠ and c n = P 2n +1. The table above shows that, in one order or the other, a n and b n = a n + 1 are H n H n +1 and 2P n P n +1 while c n = H n +1 P n + P n +1 H n.

  7. Fermat number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat_number

    The Fermat numbers satisfy the following recurrence relations: = + = + for n ≥ 1, = + = for n ≥ 2.Each of these relations can be proved by mathematical induction.From the second equation, we can deduce Goldbach's theorem (named after Christian Goldbach): no two Fermat numbers share a common integer factor greater than 1.

  8. nth root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nth_root

    Every non-zero number x, real or complex, has n different complex number nth roots. (In the case x is real, this count includes any real nth roots.) The only complex root of 0 is 0. The nth roots of almost all numbers (all integers except the nth powers, and all rationals except the quotients of two nth powers) are irrational. For example,

  9. Squared triangular number - Wikipedia

    Alternatively, one can decompose the table into a sequence of nested gnomons, each consisting of the products in which the larger of the two terms is some fixed value. The sum within each gmonon is a cube, so the sum of the whole table is a sum of cubes. [6] Visual demonstration that the square of a triangular number equals a sum of cubes.
