    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_problem_for_groups

    The related but different uniform word problem for a class of recursively presented groups is the algorithmic problem of deciding, given as input a presentation for a group in the class and two words in the generators of , whether the words represent the same element of .

  6. Closed-form expression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed-form_expression

    The quadratic formula =. is a closed form of the solutions to the general quadratic equation + + =. More generally, in the context of polynomial equations, a closed form of a solution is a solution in radicals; that is, a closed-form expression for which the allowed functions are only n th-roots and field operations (+,,, /).

    Graphs of probabilities of getting the best candidate (red circles) from n applications, and k/n (blue crosses) where k is the sample size. The secretary problem demonstrates a scenario involving optimal stopping theory [1] [2] that is studied extensively in the fields of applied probability, statistics, and decision theory.

    Order theory is a branch of mathematics that investigates the intuitive notion of order using binary relations.It provides a formal framework for describing statements such as "this is less than that" or "this precedes that".

  9. Integer programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_programming

    An integer programming problem is a mathematical optimization or feasibility program in which some or all of the variables are restricted to be integers.In many settings the term refers to integer linear programming (ILP), in which the objective function and the constraints (other than the integer constraints) are linear.
