  2. Perceptual control theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perceptual_control_theory

    Perceptual control theory (PCT) is a model of behavior based on the properties of negative feedback control loops. A control loop maintains a sensed variable at or near a reference value by means of the effects of its outputs upon that variable, as mediated by physical properties of the environment.

  3. Riemann zeta function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_zeta_function

    The values of the Riemann zeta function at even positive integers were computed by Euler. The first of them, ζ(2), provides a solution to the Basel problem. In 1979 Roger Apéry proved the irrationality of ζ. The values at negative integer points, also found by Euler, are rational numbers and play an important role in the theory of modular forms.

  5. Control theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_theory

    The definition of a closed loop control system according to the British Standards Institution is "a control system possessing monitoring feedback, the deviation signal formed as a result of this feedback being used to control the action of a final control element in such a way as to tend to reduce the deviation to zero." [12]

  6. Particular values of the Riemann zeta function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particular_values_of_the...

    The zeta function values listed below include function values at the negative even numbers (s = −2, −4, etc.), for which ζ(s) = 0 and which make up the so-called trivial zeros. The Riemann zeta function article includes a colour plot illustrating how the function varies over a continuous rectangular region of the complex plane.

  7. Ruelle zeta function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruelle_zeta_function

    In mathematics, the Ruelle zeta function is a zeta function associated with a dynamical system. It is named after mathematical physicist David Ruelle . Formal definition

  8. Multiple zeta function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_zeta_function

    Like the Riemann zeta function, the multiple zeta functions can be analytically continued to be meromorphic functions (see, for example, Zhao (1999)). When s 1, ..., s k are all positive integers (with s 1 > 1) these sums are often called multiple zeta values (MZVs) or Euler sums. These values can also be regarded as special values of the ...

  9. Dual systems model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_systems_model

    The dual systems model, also known as the maturational imbalance model, [1] is a theory arising from developmental cognitive neuroscience which posits that increased risk-taking during adolescence is a result of a combination of heightened reward sensitivity and immature impulse control.
