In number theory, a narcissistic number [1] [2] (also known as a pluperfect digital invariant (PPDI), [3] an Armstrong number [4] (after Michael F. Armstrong) [5] or a plus perfect number) [6] in a given number base is a number that is the sum of its own digits each raised to the power of the number of digits.
This is a list of recreational number theory topics (see number theory, recreational mathematics). Listing here is not pejorative : many famous topics in number theory have origins in challenging problems posed purely for their own sake.
A trimorphic number or spherical number occurs when the polynomial function is () =. [1] All automorphic numbers are trimorphic. The terms circular and spherical were formerly used for the slightly different case of a number whose powers all have the same last digit as the number itself.
In summary, a set of the real numbers is an interval, if and only if it is an open interval, a closed interval, or a half-open interval. [4] [5] A degenerate interval is any set consisting of a single real number (i.e., an interval of the form [a, a]). [6] Some authors include the empty set in this definition.

In mathematics, a sequence of nested intervals can be intuitively understood as an ordered collection of intervals on the real number line with natural numbers =,,, … as an index. In order for a sequence of intervals to be considered nested intervals, two conditions have to be met:

By this construction, the function that defines the harmonic number for complex values is the unique function that simultaneously satisfies (1) H 0 = 0, (2) H x = H x−1 + 1/x for all complex numbers x except the non-positive integers, and (3) lim m→+∞ (H m+x − H m) = 0 for all complex values x.
