  2. Schwartz–Zippel lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwartz–Zippel_lemma

    Identity testing is the problem of determining whether a given multivariate polynomial is the 0-polynomial, the polynomial that ignores all its variables and always returns zero. The lemma states that evaluating a nonzero polynomial on inputs chosen randomly from a large-enough set is likely to find an input that produces a nonzero output.

  3. Hilbert's problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert's_problems

    At least in the mainstream media, the de facto 21st century analogue of Hilbert's problems is the list of seven Millennium Prize Problems chosen during 2000 by the Clay Mathematics Institute. Unlike the Hilbert problems, where the primary award was the admiration of Hilbert in particular and mathematicians in general, each prize problem ...

  4. Riemann zeta function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_zeta_function

    The Riemann zeta function ζ(z) plotted with domain coloring. [1] The pole at = and two zeros on the critical line.. The Riemann zeta function or Euler–Riemann zeta function, denoted by the Greek letter ζ (), is a mathematical function of a complex variable defined as () = = = + + + for ⁡ >, and its analytic continuation elsewhere.

  5. Rouché's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rouché's_theorem

    As z travels along a closed curve C (not shown in the picture), f(z) and h(z) will trace out closed curves in the complex plane (shown in blue and red). So long as the curves never veer too far apart from each other (we require that f ( z ) remains closer to h ( z ) than the origin at all times), then the curves will wind around the origin the ...

  6. Z function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z_function

    Z function in the complex plane, zoomed out. In mathematics, the Z function is a function used for studying the Riemann zeta function along the critical line where the argument is one-half. It is also called the Riemann–Siegel Z function, the Riemann–Siegel zeta function, the Hardy function, the Hardy Z function and the Hardy zeta function.

  7. Millennium Prize Problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennium_Prize_Problems

    The question is whether or not, for all problems for which an algorithm can verify a given solution quickly (that is, in polynomial time), an algorithm can also find that solution quickly. Since the former describes the class of problems termed NP, while the latter describes P, the question is equivalent to asking whether all problems in NP are ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_functions_for...

    The artificial landscapes presented herein for single-objective optimization problems are taken from Bäck, [1] Haupt et al. [2] and from Rody Oldenhuis software. [3] Given the number of problems (55 in total), just a few are presented here. The test functions used to evaluate the algorithms for MOP were taken from Deb, [4] Binh et al. [5] and ...

  9. Smale's problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smale's_problems

    Smale's problems is a list of eighteen unsolved problems in mathematics proposed by Steve Smale in 1998 [1] and republished in 1999. [2] Smale composed this list in reply to a request from Vladimir Arnold, then vice-president of the International Mathematical Union, who asked several mathematicians to propose a list of problems for the 21st century.
