  2. Exponential growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_growth

    Growth like this is observed in real-life activity or phenomena, such as the spread of virus infection, the growth of debt due to compound interest, and the spread of viral videos. In real cases, initial exponential growth often does not last forever, instead slowing down eventually due to upper limits caused by external factors and turning ...

  4. Malthusian growth model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malthusian_growth_model

    Malthus wrote that all life forms, including humans, have a propensity to exponential population growth when resources are abundant but that actual growth is limited by available resources: "Through the animal and vegetable kingdoms, nature has scattered the seeds of life abroad with the most profuse and liberal hand. ...

  5. Biological exponential growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_exponential_growth

    Biological exponential growth is the unrestricted growth of a population of organisms, occurring when resources in its habitat are unlimited. [1] Most commonly apparent in species that reproduce quickly and asexually , like bacteria , exponential growth is intuitive from the fact that each organism can divide and produce two copies of itself.

  6. Tetration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetration

    However, if some elements of {α} or {β} are not zero, then function S has multitudes of additional singularities and cutlines in the complex plane, due to the exponential growth of sin and cos along the imaginary axis; the smaller the coefficients {α} and {β} are, the further away these singularities are from the real axis.

  7. Exponential function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_function

    Exponential functions with bases 2 and 1/2. In mathematics, the exponential function is the unique real function which maps zero to one and has a derivative equal to its value. . The exponential of a variable ⁠ ⁠ is denoted ⁠ ⁡ ⁠ or ⁠ ⁠, with the two notations used interchangeab

  8. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

    For positive real numbers, exponentiation to real powers can be defined in two equivalent ways, either by extending the rational powers to reals by continuity (§ Limits of rational exponents, below), or in terms of the logarithm of the base and the exponential function (§ Powers via logarithms, below).

  9. Double exponential function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_exponential_function

    A double exponential function (red curve) compared to a single exponential function (blue curve). A double exponential function is a constant raised to the power of an exponential function. The general formula is () = = (where a>1 and b>1), which grows much more quickly than an exponential function. For example, if a = b = 10: f(x) = 10 10 x; f ...
