  2. Pell's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pell's_equation

    Pell's equation for n = 2 and six of its integer solutions. Pell's equation, also called the Pell–Fermat equation, is any Diophantine equation of the form =, where n is a given positive nonsquare integer, and integer solutions are sought for x and y.

  3. Binomial theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_theorem

    In elementary algebra, the binomial theorem (or binomial expansion) describes the algebraic expansion of powers of a binomial.According to the theorem, the power ⁠ (+) ⁠ expands into a polynomial with terms of the form ⁠ ⁠, where the exponents ⁠ ⁠ and ⁠ ⁠ are nonnegative integers satisfying ⁠ + = ⁠ and the coefficient ⁠ ⁠ of each term is a specific positive integer ...

    The solution set for the equations x − y = −1 and 3x + y = 9 is the single point (2, 3). A solution of a linear system is an assignment of values to the variables ,, …, such that each of the equations is satisfied. The set of all possible solutions is called the solution set. [5]

    with the bilinear functions of the and is possible only for n ∈ {1, 2, 4, 8} . However, the more general Pfister's theorem (1965) shows that if the z i {\displaystyle z_{i}} are rational functions of one set of variables, hence has a denominator , then it is possible for all n = 2 m {\displaystyle n=2^{m}} .

    In this setting, e 0 = 1, and e x is invertible with inverse e −x for any x in B. If xy = yx, then e x + y = e x e y, but this identity can fail for noncommuting x and y. Some alternative definitions lead to the same function. For instance, e x can be defined as (+).

    For example, to calculate the e 1 component of x × y the basis vectors that multiply to produce e 1 can be picked out to give ( x × y ) 1 = x 2 y 3 − x 3 y 2 + x 4 y 5 − x 5 y 4 + x 7 y 6 − x 6 y 7 . {\displaystyle \left(\mathbf {x\times y} \right)_{1}=x_{2}y_{3}-x_{3}y_{2}+x_{4}y_{5}-x_{5}y_{4}+x_{7}y_{6}-x_{6}y_{7}.}

    John Herschel, Description of a machine for resolving by inspection certain important forms of transcendental equations, 1832. In applied mathematics, a transcendental equation is an equation over the real (or complex) numbers that is not algebraic, that is, if at least one of its sides describes a transcendental function.

    The artificial landscapes presented herein for single-objective optimization problems are taken from Bäck, [1] Haupt et al. [2] and from Rody Oldenhuis software. [3] Given the number of problems (55 in total), just a few are presented here. The test functions used to evaluate the algorithms for MOP were taken from Deb, [4] Binh et al. [5] and ...
