  2. System of linear equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_linear_equations

    The solution set for the equations xy = −1 and 3x + y = 9 is the single point (2, 3). A solution of a linear system is an assignment of values to the variables ,, …, such that each of the equations is satisfied. The set of all possible solutions is called the solution set. [5]

  3. Graph of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_of_a_function

    Given a function: from a set X (the domain) to a set Y (the codomain), the graph of the function is the set [4] = {(, ()):}, which is a subset of the Cartesian product.In the definition of a function in terms of set theory, it is common to identify a function with its graph, although, formally, a function is formed by the triple consisting of its domain, its codomain and its graph.

  4. Linear congruential generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_congruential_generator

    Even in this best case, the low three bits of X alternate between two values and thus only contribute one bit to the state. X is always odd (the lowest-order bit never changes), and only one of the next two bits ever changes. If a ≡ +3, X alternates ±1↔±3, while if a ≡ −3, X alternates ±1↔∓3 (all modulo 8).

  5. Elliptic curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_curve

    Graphs of curves y 2 = x 3x and y 2 = x 3x + 1. Although the formal definition of an elliptic curve requires some background in algebraic geometry, it is possible to describe some features of elliptic curves over the real numbers using only introductory algebra and geometry.

  6. Lehmer random number generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lehmer_random_number_generator

    The Lehmer random number generator [1] (named after D. H. Lehmer), sometimes also referred to as the Park–Miller random number generator (after Stephen K. Park and Keith W. Miller), is a type of linear congruential generator (LCG) that operates in multiplicative group of integers modulo n.

  7. Graph operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_operations

    Binary operations create a new graph from two initial graphs G 1 = (V 1, E 1) and G 2 = (V 2, E 2), such as: . graph union: G 1 ∪ G 2.There are two definitions. In the most common one, the disjoint union of graphs, the union is assumed to be disjoint.

  8. Generating function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generating_function

    In mathematics, a generating function is a representation of an infinite sequence of numbers as the coefficients of a formal power series.Generating functions are often expressed in closed form (rather than as a series), by some expression involving operations on the formal series.

  9. Ratio estimator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratio_estimator

    where s x 2 and s y 2 are the variances of the x and y variates respectively, m x and m y are the means of the x and y variates respectively and s xy is the covariance of x and y. Although the approximate variance estimator of the ratio given below is biased, if the sample size is large, the bias in this estimator is negligible.
