Name First elements Short description OEIS Mersenne prime exponents : 2, 3, 5, 7, 13, 17, 19, 31, 61, 89, ... Primes p such that 2 p − 1 is prime.: A000043 ...
The elements of B are not 1, 2, 3, and 4. Rather, there are only three elements of B, namely the numbers 1 and 2, and the set {,}. The elements of a set can be ...
Even and odd numbers: An integer is even if it is a multiple of 2, and is odd otherwise. Prime number: A positive integer with exactly two positive divisors: itself and 1. The primes form an infinite sequence 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, ...
The first several Bell numbers are B 0 = 1, B 1 = 1, B 2 = 2, B 3 = 5, B 4 = 15, B 5 = 52, and B 6 = 203 (sequence A000110 in the OEIS). Bell numbers satisfy the recursion + = = and have the exponential generating function
It starts by comparing every two elements (i.e., 1 with 2, then 3 with 4...) and swapping them if the first should come after the second. It then merges each of the resulting lists of two into lists of four, then merges those lists of four, and so on; until at last two lists are merged into the final sorted list. [ 24 ]
Lucas numbers have L 1 = 1, L 2 = 3, and L n = L n−1 + L n−2. Primefree sequences use the Fibonacci recursion with other starting points to generate sequences in which all numbers are composite. Letting a number be a linear function (other than the sum) of the 2 preceding numbers. The Pell numbers have P n = 2P n−1 + P n−2.
The situation is analogous to the case where C is the category Set, of sets of actual elements. In this case, we have the "one-pointed" set {1}, and the elements of any set S are the same as the {1}-valued points of S. In addition, though, there are the {1,2}-valued points, which are pairs of elements of S, or elements of S × S.
The group {1, −1} above and the cyclic group of order 3 under ordinary multiplication are both examples of abelian groups, and inspection of the symmetry of their Cayley tables verifies this. In contrast, the smallest non-abelian group, the dihedral group of order 6 , does not have a symmetric Cayley table.
