    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffon's_needle_problem

    Buffon's needle was the earliest problem in geometric probability to be solved; [2] it can be solved using integral geometry. The solution for the sought probability p, in the case where the needle length l is not greater than the width t of the strips, is =.

  4. 100 prisoners problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/100_prisoners_problem

    In the initial problem, the 100 prisoners are successful if the longest cycle of the permutation has a length of at most 50. Their survival probability is therefore equal to the probability that a random permutation of the numbers 1 to 100 contains no cycle of length greater than 50. This probability is determined in the following.

  5. List of unsolved problems in mathematics - Wikipedia

    Many mathematical problems have been stated but not yet solved. These problems come from many areas of mathematics, such as theoretical physics, computer science, algebra, analysis, combinatorics, algebraic, differential, discrete and Euclidean geometries, graph theory, group theory, model theory, number theory, set theory, Ramsey theory, dynamical systems, and partial differential equations.

  6. Monte Carlo method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_method

    In general, the Monte Carlo methods are used in mathematics to solve various problems by generating suitable random numbers (see also Random number generation) and observing that fraction of the numbers that obeys some property or properties. The method is useful for obtaining numerical solutions to problems too complicated to solve analytically.

  7. Basel problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basel_problem

    The solution to this problem can be used to estimate the probability that two large random numbers are coprime. Two random integers in the range from 1 to n {\displaystyle n} , in the limit as n {\displaystyle n} goes to infinity, are relatively prime with a probability that approaches 6 / π 2 {\displaystyle 6/\pi ^{2}} , the reciprocal of the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebra_of_random_variables

    there is a notion of conjugation of random variables, satisfying (XY) * = Y * X * and X ** = X for all random variables X,Y and coinciding with complex conjugation if X is a constant. This means that random variables form complex commutative *-algebras. If X = X * then the random variable X is called "real".

  9. Urn problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urn_problem

    In Ars Conjectandi (1713), Jacob Bernoulli considered the problem of determining, given a number of pebbles drawn from an urn, the proportions of different colored pebbles within the urn. This problem was known as the inverse probability problem, and was a topic of research in the eighteenth century, attracting the attention of Abraham de ...
