  2. Order of operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

    The order of operations, that is, the order in which the operations in an expression are usually performed, results from a convention adopted throughout mathematics, science, technology and many computer programming languages. It is summarized as: [2] [5] Parentheses; Exponentiation; Multiplication and division; Addition and subtraction

  3. Average order of an arithmetic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Average_order_of_an...

    An average order of σ(n), the sum of divisors of n, is nπ 2 / 6; An average order of φ(n), Euler's totient function of n, is 6n / π 2; An average order of r(n), the number of ways of expressing n as a sum of two squares, is π; The average order of representations of a natural number as a sum of three squares is 4πn / 3;

  4. Normal order of an arithmetic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_order_of_an...

    In number theory, a normal order of an arithmetic function is some simpler or better-understood function which "usually" takes the same or closely approximate values. Let f be a function on the natural numbers. We say that g is a normal order of f if for every ε > 0, the inequalities

  5. Arithmetic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_function

    An average order of an arithmetic function is some simpler or better-understood function which has the same summation function asymptotically, and hence takes the same values "on average". We say that g is an average order of f if ∑ n ≤ x f ( n ) ∼ ∑ n ≤ x g ( n ) {\displaystyle \sum _{n\leq x}f(n)\sim \sum _{n\leq x}g(n)}

  6. Extremal orders of an arithmetic function - Wikipedia

    For the number of divisors function d(n) we have the trivial lower bound 2 ≤ d(n), in which equality occurs when n is prime, so 2 is a minimal order. For ln d(n) we have a maximal order ln 2 ln n / ln ln n, proved by Wigert in 1907. [1]: 82 [2]: Theorem 317

    Thomae's function: is a function that is continuous at all irrational numbers and discontinuous at all rational numbers. It is also a modification of Dirichlet function and sometimes called Riemann function. Kronecker delta function: is a function of two variables, usually integers, which is 1 if they are equal, and 0 otherwise.

  8. Ordinal arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordinal_arithmetic

    One may take this relation as a definition of the natural operations by choosing S and T to be ordinals α and β; so α ⊕ β is the maximum order type of a total order extending the disjoint union (as a partial order) of α and β; while α ⊗ β is the maximum order type of a total order extending the direct product (as a partial order) of ...

  9. Real analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_analysis

    Many of the theorems of real analysis are consequences of the topological properties of the real number line. The order properties of the real numbers described above are closely related to these topological properties. As a topological space, the real numbers has a standard topology, which is the order topology induced by order <.
