  2. Proofs of quadratic reciprocity - Wikipedia

    Because each column has an even number of points (namely q−1 points), the number of such lattice points in the region BCYX is the same modulo 2 as the number of such points in the region CZY: The number of points with even x -coordinate inside BCYX (marked by O's) is equal modulo 2 to the number of such points in CZY (marked by X's)

  3. Point process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_process

    In mathematics, a point process is a random element whose values are "point patterns" on a set S.While in the exact mathematical definition a point pattern is specified as a locally finite counting measure, it is sufficient for more applied purposes to think of a point pattern as a countable subset of S that has no limit points.

  4. Fixed-point iteration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-point_iteration

    The fixed point iteration x n+1 = cos x n with initial value x 1 = −1.. An attracting fixed point of a function f is a fixed point x fix of f with a neighborhood U of "close enough" points around x fix such that for any value of x in U, the fixed-point iteration sequence , (), (()), ((())), … is contained in U and converges to x fix.

  5. Lookup table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lookup_table

    Functions of a single variable (such as sine and cosine) may be implemented by a simple array. Functions involving two or more variables require multidimensional array indexing techniques. The latter case may thus employ a two-dimensional array of power[x][y] to replace a function to calculate x y for a limited range of x and y values ...

  6. Multivalued function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multivalued_function

    In mathematics, a multivalued function, [1] multiple-valued function, [2] many-valued function, [3] or multifunction, [4] is a function that has two or more values in its range for at least one point in its domain. [5] It is a set-valued function with additional properties depending on context; some authors do not distinguish between set-valued ...

  7. Thomae's function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomae's_function

    It is named after Carl Johannes Thomae, but has many other names: the popcorn function, the raindrop function, the countable cloud function, the modified Dirichlet function, the ruler function (not to be confused with the integer ruler function), [2] the Riemann function, or the Stars over Babylon (John Horton Conway's name). [3]

  8. Counting sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counting_sort

    The other two for loops, and the initialization of the output array, each take O(n) time. Therefore, the time for the whole algorithm is the sum of the times for these steps, O(n + k). [1] [2] Because it uses arrays of length k + 1 and n, the total space usage of the algorithm is also O(n + k). [1]

  9. Likelihood function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Likelihood_function

    In measure-theoretic probability theory, the density function is defined as the Radon–Nikodym derivative of the probability distribution relative to a common dominating measure. [5] The likelihood function is this density interpreted as a function of the parameter, rather than the random variable. [6]
