  2. Floor and ceiling functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_and_ceiling_functions

    In mathematics, the floor function is the function that takes as input a real number x, and gives as output the greatest integer less than or equal to x, denoted ⌊x⌋ or floor(x). Similarly, the ceiling function maps x to the least integer greater than or equal to x, denoted ⌈x⌉ or ceil(x). [1]

  3. Kempner function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kempner_function

    In number theory, the Kempner function [1] is defined for a given positive integer to be the smallest number such that divides the factorial!. For example, the number 8 {\displaystyle 8} does not divide 1 ! {\displaystyle 1!} , 2 ! {\displaystyle 2!} , or 3 ! {\displaystyle 3!} , but does divide 4 ! {\displaystyle 4!} , so S ( 8 ) = 4 ...

  4. Lambert W function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambert_W_function

    The product logarithm Lambert W function plotted in the complex plane from −2 − 2i to 2 + 2i The graph of y = W(x) for real x < 6 and y > −4. The upper branch (blue) with y ≥ −1 is the graph of the function W 0 (principal branch), the lower branch (magenta) with y ≤ −1 is the graph of the function W −1. The minimum value of x is ...

  5. Travelling salesman problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travelling_salesman_problem

    For example, the minimum spanning tree of the graph associated with an instance of the Euclidean TSP is a Euclidean minimum spanning tree, and so can be computed in expected O(n log n) time for n points (considerably less than the number of edges). This enables the simple 2-approximation algorithm for TSP with triangle inequality above to ...

  6. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

    Specifically, he considered functions of the form = + (), where a 0, b 0, ..., a P − 1, b P − 1 are rational numbers which are so chosen that g(n) is always an integer. The standard Collatz function is given by P = 2, a 0 = ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠, b 0 = 0, a 1 = 3, b 1 = 1. Conway proved that the problem

  7. Shortest path problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortest_path_problem

    Shortest path (A, C, E, D, F) between vertices A and F in the weighted directed graph. In graph theory, the shortest path problem is the problem of finding a path between two vertices (or nodes) in a graph such that the sum of the weights of its constituent edges is minimized.

  8. Closest pair of points problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closest_pair_of_points_problem

    Return the smallest of the distances computed throughout this process. The algorithm will always correctly determine the closest pair, because it maps any pair closer than distance to the same grid point or to adjacent grid points. The uniform sampling of pairs in the first step of the algorithm (compared to a different method of Rabin for ...

    2.Share all equivalent sub-graphs the same as for original BDDs. If the number and the order of input variables are fixed, a zero-suppressed BDD represents a Boolean function uniquely (as proved in Figure 2, it is possible to use a BDD to represent a Boolean binary tree).
