2. Polynomial expansion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_expansion

   Polynomial expansion. In mathematics, an expansion of a product of sums expresses it as a sum of products by using the fact that multiplication distributes over addition. Expansion of a polynomial expression can be obtained by repeatedly replacing subexpressions that multiply two other subexpressions, at least one of which is an addition, by ...

3. Binomial theorem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_theorem

   In elementary algebra, the binomial theorem (or binomial expansion) describes the algebraic expansion of powers of a binomial.According to the theorem, it is possible to expand the polynomial (x + y) n into a sum involving terms of the form ax b y c, where the exponents b and c are nonnegative integers with b + c = n, and the coefficient a of each term is a specific positive integer depending ...

4. Exponential function - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_function

   Exponential functions with bases 2 and 1/2. The exponential function is a mathematical function denoted by () = ⁡ or (where the argument x is written as an exponent).Unless otherwise specified, the term generally refers to the positive-valued function of a real variable, although it can be extended to the complex numbers or generalized to other mathematical objects like matrices or Lie algebras.

5. Taylor series - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor_series

   t. e. In mathematics, the Taylor series or Taylor expansion of a function is an infinite sum of terms that are expressed in terms of the function's derivatives at a single point. For most common functions, the function and the sum of its Taylor series are equal near this point.

6. Partial fraction decomposition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_fraction_decomposition

   Partial fraction decomposition. In algebra, the partial fraction decomposition or partial fraction expansion of a rational fraction (that is, a fraction such that the numerator and the denominator are both polynomials) is an operation that consists of expressing the fraction as a sum of a polynomial (possibly zero) and one or several fractions ...

7. Extraneous and missing solutions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extraneous_and_missing...

   Extraneous and missing solutions. In mathematics, an extraneous solution (or spurious solution) is one which emerges from the process of solving a problem but is not a valid solution to it. [1] A missing solution is a valid one which is lost during the solution process. Both situations frequently result from performing operations that are not ...

8. Rational function - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_function

   Rational function. In mathematics, a rational function is any function that can be defined by a rational fraction, which is an algebraic fraction such that both the numerator and the denominator are polynomials. The coefficients of the polynomials need not be rational numbers; they may be taken in any field K.

9. Euler substitution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_substitution

   The substitutions of Euler can be generalized by allowing the use of imaginary numbers. For example, in the integral , the substitution can be used. Extensions to the complex numbers allows us to use every type of Euler substitution regardless of the coefficients on the quadratic. The substitutions of Euler can be generalized to a larger class ...
