  2. Least common multiple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_common_multiple

    A least common multiple of a and b is a common multiple that is minimal, in the sense that for any other common multiple n of a and b, m divides n. In general, two elements in a commutative ring can have no least common multiple or more than one. However, any two least common multiples of the same pair of elements are associates. [10]

  3. Linear congruential generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_congruential_generator

    Using a = 4 and c = 1 (bottom row) gives a cycle length of 9 with any seed in [0, 8]. A linear congruential generator ( LCG ) is an algorithm that yields a sequence of pseudo-randomized numbers calculated with a discontinuous piecewise linear equation .

    Even in high-level languages, if the multiplier a is limited to √ m, then the double-width product ax can be computed using two single-width multiplications, and reduced using the techniques described above. To use Schrage's method, first factor m = qa + r, i.e. precompute the auxiliary constants r = m mod a and q = ⌊ m/a ⌋ = (m−r)/a.

  6. BCH code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BCH_code

    The generator polynomial of the BCH code is defined as the least common multiple g(x) = lcm(m 1 (x),…,m d − 1 (x)). It can be seen that g(x) is a polynomial with coefficients in GF(q) and divides x n − 1. Therefore, the polynomial code defined by g(x) is a cyclic code.

  7. Wichmann–Hill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wichmann–Hill

    Wichmann–Hill is a pseudorandom number generator proposed in 1982 by Brian Wichmann and David Hill. [1] It consists of three linear congruential generators with different prime moduli, each of which is used to produce a uniformly distributed number between 0 and 1.

  8. Buchberger's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buchberger's_algorithm

    For every f i, f j in G, denote by g i the leading term of f i with respect to the given monomial ordering, and by a ij the least common multiple of g i and g j. Choose two polynomials in G and let S ij = ⁠ a ij / g i ⁠ f i − ⁠ a ij / g j ⁠ f j (Note that the leading terms here will cancel by construction).

  9. Carmichael function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carmichael_function

    The Carmichael lambda function of a prime power can be expressed in terms of the Euler totient. Any number that is not 1 or a prime power can be written uniquely as the product of distinct prime powers, in which case λ of the product is the least common multiple of the λ of the prime power factors.
