  2. Modular multiplicative inverse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_multiplicative_inverse

    Modular multiplicative inverse. In mathematics, particularly in the area of arithmetic, a modular multiplicative inverse of an integer a is an integer x such that the product ax is congruent to 1 with respect to the modulus m. [1] In the standard notation of modular arithmetic this congruence is written as.

  3. Modular arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_arithmetic

    This integer a −1 is called a modular multiplicative inverse of a modulo m. If a ≡ b (mod m) and a −1 exists, then a −1 ≡ b −1 (mod m) (compatibility with multiplicative inverse, and, if a = b, uniqueness modulo m). If ax ≡ b (mod m) and a is coprime to m, then the solution to this linear congruence is given by x ≡ a −1 b (mod m).

  4. Partition function (number theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_function_(number...

    In number theory, the partition function p(n) represents the number of possible partitions of a non-negative integer n. For instance, p(4) = 5 because the integer 4 has the five partitions 1 + 1 + 1 + 1, 1 + 1 + 2, 1 + 3, 2 + 2, and 4. No closed-form expression for the partition function is known, but it has both asymptotic expansions that ...

  5. Montgomery modular multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montgomery_modular...

    The modular inverse of aR mod N is REDC((aR mod N) −1 (R 3 mod N)). Modular exponentiation can be done using exponentiation by squaring by initializing the initial product to the Montgomery representation of 1, that is, to R mod N, and by replacing the multiply and square steps by Montgomery multiplies.

  6. Multiplicative inverse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicative_inverse

    The graph forms a rectangular hyperbola. In mathematics, a multiplicative inverse or reciprocal for a number x, denoted by 1/ x or x−1, is a number which when multiplied by x yields the multiplicative identity, 1. The multiplicative inverse of a fraction a / b is b / a. For the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number.

  7. Euler's totient function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_totient_function

    Euler's totient function is a multiplicative function, meaning that if two numbers m and n are relatively prime, then φ(mn) = φ(m)φ(n). [4][5] This function gives the order of the multiplicative group of integers modulo n (the group of units of the ring ). [6] It is also used for defining the RSA encryption system.

  8. Weierstrass elliptic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weierstrass_elliptic_function

    Weierstrass elliptic function. In mathematics, the Weierstrass elliptic functions are elliptic functions that take a particularly simple form. They are named for Karl Weierstrass. This class of functions are also referred to as ℘-functions and they are usually denoted by the symbol ℘, a uniquely fancy script p.

  9. Approximations of π - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximations_of_π

    Starting at 0, add 1 for each cell whose distance to the origin (0,0) is less than or equal to r. When finished, divide the sum, representing the area of a circle of radius r, by r2 to find the approximation of π. For example, if r is 5, then the cells considered are: (−5,5) (−4,5)
