    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. Explanations of the symbols in the right hand column can be found by clicking on them.

  3. Generator (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_(mathematics)

    In mathematics and physics, the term generator or generating set may refer to any of a number of related concepts. The underlying concept in each case is that of a smaller set of objects, together with a set of operations that can be applied to it, that result in the creation of a larger collection of objects, called the generated set .

  4. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

    In mathematics, exponentiation, denoted b n, is an operation involving two numbers: the base, b, and the exponent or power, n. [1] When n is a positive integer, exponentiation corresponds to repeated multiplication of the base: that is, b n is the product of multiplying n bases: [1] = ⏟.

  5. Exponential function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_function

    exp is a fixed point of derivative as a linear operator on function space. If a variable's growth or decay rate is proportional to its size—as is the case in unlimited population growth (see Malthusian catastrophe ), continuously compounded interest , or radioactive decay —then the variable can be written as a constant times an exponential ...

  6. Matrix exponential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_exponential

    Recall from above that an n×n matrix exp(tA) amounts to a linear combination of the first n −1 powers of A by the Cayley–Hamilton theorem. For diagonalizable matrices, as illustrated above, e.g. in the 2×2 case, Sylvester's formula yields exp(tA) = B α exp(tα) + B β exp(tβ), where the B s are the Frobenius covariants of A.

    This list of mathematical series contains formulae for finite and infinite sums. It can be used in conjunction with other tools for evaluating sums. It can be used in conjunction with other tools for evaluating sums.

  8. Generating function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generating_function

    In mathematics, a generating function is a representation of an infinite sequence of numbers as the coefficients of a formal power series.Generating functions are often expressed in closed form (rather than as a series), by some expression involving operations on the formal series.
