The additive persistence of 2718 is 2: first we find that 2 + 7 + 1 + 8 = 18, and then that 1 + 8 = 9. The multiplicative persistence of 39 is 3, because it takes three steps to reduce 39 to a single digit: 39 → 27 → 14 → 4. Also, 39 is the smallest number of multiplicative persistence 3.
We can also define the multiplicity of the zeroes and poles of a meromorphic function. If we have a meromorphic function =, take the Taylor expansions of g and h about a point z 0, and find the first non-zero term in each (denote the order of the terms m and n respectively) then if m = n, then the point has non-zero value.
This extended multiplicity function is commonly called simply the multiplicity function, and suffices for defining multisets when the universe containing the elements has been fixed. This multiplicity function is a generalization of the indicator function of a subset , and shares some properties with it.
The only partition of zero is the empty sum, having no parts. The order-dependent composition 1 + 3 is the same partition as 3 + 1 , and the two distinct compositions 1 + 2 + 1 and 1 + 1 + 2 represent the same partition as 2 + 1 + 1 .
A simple example is the set of non-zero rational numbers. Here identity 1 is had, as opposed to groups under addition where the identity is typically 0. Note that with the rationals, zero must be excluded because, under multiplication, it does not have an inverse: there is no rational number that can be multiplied by zero to result in 1.
Rouché's theorem, named after Eugène Rouché, states that for any two complex-valued functions f and g holomorphic inside some region with closed contour , if |g(z)| < |f(z)| on , then f and f + g have the same number of zeros inside , where each zero is counted as many times as its multiplicity.

Explicitly this says that any multiset of 2n − 1 integers has a subset of size n the sum of whose elements is a multiple of n, but that the same is not true of multisets of size 2n − 2. (Indeed, the lower bound is easy to see: the multiset containing n − 1 copies of 0 and n − 1 copies of 1 contains no n -subset summing to a multiple of n .)
