  2. Linear congruential generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_congruential_generator

    The generator is not sensitive to the choice of c, as long as it is relatively prime to the modulus (e.g. if m is a power of 2, then c must be odd), so the value c=1 is commonly chosen. The sequence produced by other choices of c can be written as a simple function of the sequence when c=1.

  3. Modular exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_exponentiation

    MATLAB's powermod function from Symbolic Math Toolbox; Wolfram Language has the PowerMod function; Perl's Math::BigInt module has a bmodpow() method to perform modular exponentiation; Raku has a built-in routine expmod. Go's big.Int type contains an Exp() (exponentiation) method whose third parameter, if non-nil, is the modulus

  4. Power iteration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_iteration

    In mathematics, power iteration (also known as the power method) is an eigenvalue algorithm: given a diagonalizable matrix, the algorithm will produce a number , which is the greatest (in absolute value) eigenvalue of , and a nonzero vector , which is a corresponding eigenvector of , that is, =.

    So, denotes the power set of S, that is the set of the functions from S to {,}, which can be identified with the set of the subsets of S, by mapping each function to the inverse image of 1. This fits in with the exponentiation of cardinal numbers , in the sense that | S T | = | S | | T | , where | X | is the cardinality of X .

  6. Inverse iteration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_iteration

    In numerical analysis, inverse iteration (also known as the inverse power method) is an iterative eigenvalue algorithm. It allows one to find an approximate eigenvector when an approximation to a corresponding eigenvalue is already known. The method is conceptually similar to the power method. It appears to have originally been developed to ...

  7. Generating function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generating_function

    In mathematics, a generating function is a representation of an infinite sequence of numbers as the coefficients of a formal power series.Generating functions are often expressed in closed form (rather than as a series), by some expression involving operations on the formal series.

  8. Exponential function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_function

    Exponential functions with bases 2 and 1/2. In mathematics, the exponential function is the unique real function which maps zero to one and has a derivative equal to its value. . The exponential of a variable ⁠ ⁠ is denoted ⁠ ⁡ ⁠ or ⁠ ⁠, with the two notations used interchangeab

  9. Matrix exponential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_exponential

    In mathematics, the matrix exponential is a matrix function on square matrices analogous to the ordinary exponential function. It is used to solve systems of linear differential equations. In the theory of Lie groups, the matrix exponential gives the exponential map between a matrix Lie algebra and the corresponding Lie group.
