  2. Parity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_(mathematics)

    Even and odd numbers have opposite parities, e.g., 22 (even number) and 13 (odd number) have opposite parities. In particular, the parity of zero is even. [2] Any two consecutive integers have opposite parity. A number (i.e., integer) expressed in the decimal numeral system is even or odd according to whether its last digit is even or odd. That ...

  3. Mathieu function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathieu_function

    For the even and odd periodic Mathieu functions , and the associated characteristic numbers one can also derive asymptotic expansions for large . [34] For the characteristic numbers in particular, one has with N {\displaystyle N} approximately an odd integer, i.e. N ≈ N 0 = 2 n + 1 , n = 1 , 2 , 3 , . . . , {\displaystyle N\approx N_{0}=2n+1 ...

  4. Error function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_function

    This directly results from the fact that the integrand e −t 2 is an even function (the antiderivative of an even function which is zero at the origin is an odd function and vice versa).

  5. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

    If k is an odd integer, then 3k + 1 is even, so 3k + 1 = 2 a k ′ with k ′ odd and a ≥ 1. The Syracuse function is the function f from the set I of positive odd integers into itself, for which f(k) = k ′ (sequence A075677 in the OEIS). Some properties of the Syracuse function are: For all k ∈ I, f(4k + 1) = f(k). (Because 3(4k + 1) + 1 ...

  6. Generating function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generating_function

    For a = 2, this is simply the familiar decomposition of a function into even and odd parts (i.e., even and odd powers): = = + = + + = (). More generally, suppose that a ≥ 3 and that ω a = exp ⁠ 2 πi / a ⁠ denotes the a th primitive root of unity .

  7. Hyperbolic functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_functions

    Since the function cosh x is even, only even exponents for x occur in its Taylor series. The sum of the sinh and cosh series is the infinite series expression of the exponential function . The following series are followed by a description of a subset of their domain of convergence , where the series is convergent and its sum equals the function.

  8. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

    All graphs from the family of odd power functions have the general shape of =, flattening more in the middle as increases and losing all flatness there in the straight line for =. Functions with this kind of symmetry ( f ( − x ) = − f ( x ) {\displaystyle f(-x)=-f(x)} ) are called odd functions .

  9. Function (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(mathematics)

    If the domain of definition equals X, one often says that the partial function is a total function. In several areas of mathematics the term "function" refers to partial functions rather than to ordinary functions. This is typically the case when functions may be specified in a way that makes difficult or even impossible to determine their domain.
