  2. Series acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_acceleration

    Two classical techniques for series acceleration are Euler's transformation of series [1] and Kummer's transformation of series. [2] A variety of much more rapidly convergent and special-case tools have been developed in the 20th century, including Richardson extrapolation, introduced by Lewis Fry Richardson in the early 20th century but also known and used by Katahiro Takebe in 1722; the ...

  3. Aitken's delta-squared process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aitken's_delta-squared_process

    Usually, it is much cheaper to calculate [] (involving only calculation of differences, one multiplication and one division) than to calculate many more terms of the sequence . Care must be taken, however, to avoid introducing errors due to insufficient precision when calculating the differences in the numerator and denominator of the expression.

  4. Kummer's transformation of series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kummer's_transformation_of...

    In mathematics, specifically in the field of numerical analysis, Kummer's transformation of series is a method used to accelerate the convergence of an infinite series. The method was first suggested by Ernst Kummer in 1837.

  5. Anderson acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anderson_acceleration

    In mathematics, Anderson acceleration, also called Anderson mixing, is a method for the acceleration of the convergence rate of fixed-point iterations. Introduced by Donald G. Anderson, [ 1 ] this technique can be used to find the solution to fixed point equations f ( x ) = x {\displaystyle f(x)=x} often arising in the field of computational ...

  6. Series expansion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_expansion

    A Laurent series is a generalization of the Taylor series, allowing terms with negative exponents; it takes the form = and converges in an annulus. [6] In particular, a Laurent series can be used to examine the behavior of a complex function near a singularity by considering the series expansion on an annulus centered at the singularity.

  7. Symbolab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolab

    Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011. In 2020, the company was acquired by American educational technology website Course Hero. [3] [4]

  8. Newton's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_method

    The initial guess will be x 0 = 1 and the function will be f(x) = x 22 so that f ′ (x) = 2x. Each new iteration of Newton's method will be denoted by x1 . We will check during the computation whether the denominator ( yprime ) becomes too small (smaller than epsilon ), which would be the case if f ′ ( x n ) ≈ 0 , since otherwise a ...

  9. Rate of convergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_convergence

    In asymptotic analysis in general, one sequence () that converges to a limit is said to asymptotically converge to with a faster order of convergence than another sequence () that converges to in a shared metric space with distance metric | |, such as the real numbers or complex numbers with the ordinary absolute difference metrics, if
