In mathematics, the factorial of a non-negative integer, denoted by !, is the product of all positive integers less than or equal to . The factorial of also equals the product of with the next smaller factorial: ! = () = ()! For example, ! =! = =
The factorial number system is sometimes defined with the 0! place omitted because it is always zero (sequence A007623 in the OEIS). In this article, a factorial number representation will be flagged by a subscript "!". In addition, some examples will have digits delimited by a colon. For example, 3:4:1:0:1:0! stands for
The falling factorial can be extended to real values of using the gamma function provided and + are real numbers that are not negative integers: = (+) (+) , and so can the rising factorial: = (+) . Calculus
Let be a natural number. For a base >, we define the sum of the factorials of the digits [5] [6] of , :, to be the following: = =!. where = ⌊ ⌋ + is the number of digits in the number in base , ! is the factorial of and
Let Δ be a negative integer with Δ = −dn, where d is a multiplier and Δ is the negative discriminant of some quadratic form. Take the t first primes p 1 = 2, p 2 = 3, p 3 = 5, ..., p t, for some t ∈ N. Let f q be a random prime form of G Δ with ( Δ / q ) = 1. Find a generating set X of G Δ.
In mathematics, a unary operation is an operation with only one operand, i.e. a single input. [1] This is in contrast to binary operations, which use two operands. [2] An example is any function : , where A is a set; the function is a unary operation on A.
The factorial of a non-negative integer n, denoted by n!, is the product of all positive integers less than or equal to n. For example, 5! = 5×4×3×2×1 = 120. By convention, the value of 0! is defined as 1. This classical factorial function appears prominently in many theorems in number theory. The following are a few of these theorems. [1]
The gamma function is an important special function in mathematics.Its particular values can be expressed in closed form for integer and half-integer arguments, but no simple expressions are known for the values at rational points in general.
