  2. Fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

    A unit fraction is a common fraction with a numerator of 1 (e.g., ⁠ 1 / 7 ⁠). Unit fractions can also be expressed using negative exponents, as in 2 −1, which represents 1/2, and 2 −2, which represents 1/(2 2) or 1/4. A dyadic fraction is a common fraction in which the denominator is a power of two, e.g. ⁠ 1 / 8 ⁠ = ⁠ 1 / 2 3 ⁠.

  3. Farey sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farey_sequence

    With the restricted definition, each Farey sequence starts with the value 0, denoted by the fraction ⁠ 0 / 1 ⁠, and ends with the value 1, denoted by the fraction1 / 1 ⁠ (although some authors omit these terms). A Farey sequence is sometimes called a Farey series, which is not strictly correct, because the terms are not summed. [2]

  4. Mandelbrot set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandelbrot_set

    Attracting cycles and Julia sets for parameters in the 1/2, 3/7, 2/5, 1/3, 1/4, and 1/5 bulbs. The change of behavior occurring at is known as a bifurcation: the attracting fixed point "collides" with a repelling period-q cycle.

  5. Convolutional code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convolutional_code

    To convolutionally encode data, start with k memory registers, each holding one input bit.Unless otherwise specified, all memory registers start with a value of 0. The encoder has n modulo-2 adders (a modulo 2 adder can be implemented with a single Boolean XOR gate, where the logic is: 0+0 = 0, 0+1 = 1, 1+0 = 1, 1+1 = 0), and n generator polynomials — one for each adder (see figure below).

  6. Continued fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continued_fraction

    Note: this continued fraction's rate of convergence μ tends to 3 − √ 8 ≈ 0.1715729, hence ⁠ 1 / μ ⁠ tends to 3 + √ 8 ≈ 5.828427, whose common logarithm is 0.7655... ≈ ⁠ 13 / 17 ⁠ > ⁠ 3 / 4 ⁠. The same ⁠ 1 / μ ⁠ = 3 + √ 8 (the silver ratio squared) also is observed in the unfolded general continued fractions of ...
