    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_formulae_involving_π

    Perhaps the most notable hypergeometric inversions are the following two examples, involving the Ramanujan tau function and the Fourier coefficients of the J-invariant (OEIS: A000521): ∑ n = − 1 ∞ j n q n = 256 ( 1 − z + z 2 ) 3 z 2 ( 1 − z ) 2 , {\displaystyle \sum _{n=-1}^{\infty }\mathrm {j} _{n}q^{n}=256{\dfrac {(1-z+z^{2})^{3}}{z ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_identity

    The computation of (1 + ⁠ iπ / N ⁠) N is displayed as the combined effect of N repeated multiplications in the complex plane, with the final point being the actual value of (1 + ⁠ iπ / N ⁠) N. It can be seen that as N gets larger (1 + ⁠ iπ / N ⁠) N approaches a limit of −1. Euler's identity asserts that is

    The total time is 1.1191 + 0.8672 = 1.9863 The conclusion, based on this particular model, is that equation 6 is slightly faster than equation 5, regardless of the fact that equation 6 has more terms. This result is typical of the general trend. The dominant factor is the ratio between and . In order to achieve a high ratio, it is necessary to ...

  5. Pi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi

    The number π (/ p aɪ / ⓘ; spelled out as "pi") is a mathematical constant, approximately equal to 3.14159, that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter.It appears in many formulae across mathematics and physics, and some of these formulae are commonly used for defining π, to avoid relying on the definition of the length of a curve.

  6. Mathematical constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_constant

    The constant π (pi) has a natural definition in Euclidean geometry as the ratio between the circumference and diameter of a circle. It may be found in many other places in mathematics: for example, the Gaussian integral, the complex roots of unity, and Cauchy distributions in probability. However, its ubiquity is not limited to pure mathematics.

  7. Solid angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_angle

    The solid angle of a sphere measured from any point in its interior is 4 π sr. The solid angle subtended at the center of a cube by one of its faces is one-sixth of that, or 2 π /3 sr. The solid angle subtended at the corner of a cube (an octant) or spanned by a spherical octant is π /2 sr, one-eight of the solid angle of a sphere. [1]

  8. Algebraic geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_geometry

    Algebraic geometry is a branch of mathematics which uses abstract algebraic techniques, mainly from commutative algebra, to solve geometrical problems.Classically, it studies zeros of multivariate polynomials; the modern approach generalizes this in a few different aspects.
