Example comparing two search algorithms. To look for "Morin, Arthur" in some ficitious participant list, linear search needs 28 checks, while binary search needs 5. Svg version: File:Binary search vs Linear search example svg.svg.
A famous example is the recurrence for the Fibonacci numbers, = + where the order is two and the linear function merely adds the two previous terms. This example is a linear recurrence with constant coefficients , because the coefficients of the linear function (1 and 1) are constants that do not depend on n . {\displaystyle n.}
In mathematics (including combinatorics, linear algebra, and dynamical systems), a linear recurrence with constant coefficients [1]: ch. 17 [2]: ch. 10 (also known as a linear recurrence relation or linear difference equation) sets equal to 0 a polynomial that is linear in the various iterates of a variable—that is, in the values of the elements of a sequence.
In linear algebra, a linear relation, or simply relation, between elements of a vector space or a module is a linear equation that has these elements as a solution.. More precisely, if , …, are elements of a (left) module M over a ring R (the case of a vector space over a field is a special case), a relation between , …, is a sequence (, …,) of elements of R such that
Other problems also reduce to those in the above table: for example, whether = for some reduces to existence-of-a-zero for the sequence . As a second example, for sequences in the real numbers, weak positivity (is s n ≥ 0 {\displaystyle s_{n}\geq 0} for all n {\displaystyle n} ?) reduces to positivity of the sequence − s n {\displaystyle -s ...
For example, "is a blood relative of" is a symmetric relation, because x is a blood relative of y if and only if y is a blood relative of x. Antisymmetric for all x, y ∈ X, if xRy and yRx then x = y. For example, ≥ is an antisymmetric relation; so is >, but vacuously (the condition in the definition is always false). [11] Asymmetric
