  2. Look-and-say sequence - Wikipedia

    In this case, the term following 21 would be 1112 ("one 1, one 2") and the term following 3112 would be 211213 ("two 1s, one 2 and one 3"). This variation ultimately ends up repeating the number 21322314 ("two 1s, three 2s, two 3s and one 4"). These sequences differ in several notable ways from the look-and-say sequence.

    A number that has the same number of digits as the number of digits in its prime factorization, including exponents but excluding exponents equal to 1. A046758: Extravagant numbers: 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 33, 34, 36, 38, ... A number that has fewer digits than the number of digits in its prime factorization (including ...

    Therefore a series with non-negative terms converges if and only if the sequence of partial sums is bounded, and so finding a bound for a series or for the absolute values of its terms is an effective way to prove convergence or absolute convergence of a series. [48] [49] [47] [50]

  5. Integer sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_sequence

    Alternatively, an integer sequence may be defined by a property which members of the sequence possess and other integers do not possess. For example, we can determine whether a given integer is a perfect number, (sequence A000396 in the OEIS), even though we do not have a formula for the nth perfect number.

  6. List of mathematical series - Wikipedia

    An infinite series of any rational function of can be reduced to a finite series of polygamma functions, by use of partial fraction decomposition, [8] as explained here. This fact can also be applied to finite series of rational functions, allowing the result to be computed in constant time even when the series contains a large number of terms.

  7. Sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence

    Informally, a sequence has a limit if the elements of the sequence become closer and closer to some value (called the limit of the sequence), and they become and remain arbitrarily close to , meaning that given a real number greater than zero, all but a finite number of the elements of the sequence have a distance from less than .

  8. Arithmetic progression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_progression

    The sum of the members of a finite arithmetic progression is called an arithmetic series. For example, consider the sum: For example, consider the sum: 2 + 5 + 8 + 11 + 14 = 40 {\displaystyle 2+5+8+11+14=40}

  9. Jacobsthal number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobsthal_number

    In mathematics, the Jacobsthal numbers are an integer sequence named after the German mathematician Ernst Jacobsthal.Like the related Fibonacci numbers, they are a specific type of Lucas sequence (,) for which P = 1, and Q = −2 [1] —and are defined by a similar recurrence relation: in simple terms, the sequence starts with 0 and 1, then each following number is found by adding the number ...
