  2. Summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation

    The summation of an explicit sequence is denoted as a succession of additions. For example, summation of [1, 2, 4, 2] is denoted 1 + 2 + 4 + 2, and results in 9, that is, 1 + 2 + 4 + 2 = 9. Because addition is associative and commutative, there is no need for parentheses, and the result is the same irrespective of the order of the summands ...

  3. 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + ⋯ - ⋯ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1/2_%2B_1/4_%2B_1/8_%2B_1/...

    In mathematics, the infinite series ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 / 8 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 / 16 ⁠ + ··· is an elementary example of a geometric series that converges absolutely. The sum of the series is 1.

    [3] [4] The boundary conditions are usually imposed by the Simultaneous-Approximation-Term (SAT) technique. [5] The combination of SBP-SAT is a powerful framework for boundary treatment. The method is preferred for well-proven stability for long-time simulation, and high order of accuracy.

  5. 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + ⋯ - ⋯ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1_%2B_2_%2B_4_%2B_8_%2B_%E...

    The first four partial sums of 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + ⋯. In mathematics, 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + ⋯ is the infinite series whose terms are the successive powers of two. As a geometric series, it is characterized by its first term, 1, and its common ratio, 2. As a series of real numbers it diverges to infinity, so the sum of this series is infinity.

  6. Divisor sum identities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisor_sum_identities

    The purpose of this page is to catalog new, interesting, and useful identities related to number-theoretic divisor sums, i.e., sums of an arithmetic function over the divisors of a natural number , or equivalently the Dirichlet convolution of an arithmetic function () with one:

  7. Sum and Product Puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sum_and_Product_Puzzle

    The solution has X and Y as 4 and 13, with P initially knowing the product is 52 and S knowing the sum is 17. Initially P does not know the solution, since 52 = 4 × 13 = 2 × 26. and S knows that P does not know the solution since all the possible sums to 17 within the constraints produce similarly ambiguous products.

  8. Arithmetic progression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_progression

    For instance, the sequence 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, . . . is an arithmetic progression with a common difference of 2. If the initial term of an arithmetic progression is a 1 {\displaystyle a_{1}} and the common difference of successive members is d {\displaystyle d} , then the n {\displaystyle n} -th term of the sequence ( a n {\displaystyle a_{n ...

  9. Euler–Maclaurin formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler–Maclaurin_formula

    The remainder term arises because the integral is usually not exactly equal to the sum. The formula may be derived by applying repeated integration by parts to successive intervals [r, r + 1] for r = m, m + 1, …, n − 1. The boundary terms in these integrations lead to the main terms of the formula, and the leftover integrals form the ...
