  2. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

    The matrix power is the transition matrix between the state now and the state at a time n steps in the future. So computing matrix powers is equivalent to solving the evolution of the dynamical system. In many cases, matrix powers can be expediently computed by using eigenvalues and eigenvectors.

  3. Matrix exponential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_exponential

    The formula for the exponential results from reducing the powers of G in the series expansion and identifying the respective series coefficients of G 2 and G with −cos(θ) and sin(θ) respectively. The second expression here for e Gθ is the same as the expression for R ( θ ) in the article containing the derivation of the generator , R ( θ ...

  4. Power of two - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_two

    Two to the power of n, written as 2 n, is the number of values in which the bits in a binary word of length n can be set, where each bit is either of two values. A word, interpreted as representing an integer in a range starting at zero, referred to as an "unsigned integer", can represent values from 0 (000...000 2) to 2 n − 1 (111...111 2) inclusively.

  5. Exponentiation by squaring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation_by_squaring

    Power(x, −n) = Power(x −1, n), Power(x, −n) = (Power(x, n)) −1. The approach also works in non-commutative semigroups and is often used to compute powers of matrices. More generally, the approach works with positive integer exponents in every magma for which the binary operation is power associative.

  6. Zero to the power of zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_to_the_power_of_zero

    Zero to the power of zero, denoted as 0 0, is a mathematical expression that can take different values depending on the context. In certain areas of mathematics, such as combinatorics and algebra , 0 0 is conventionally defined as 1 because this assignment simplifies many formulas and ensures consistency in operations involving exponents .

  7. Power (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_(statistics)

    The main application of statistical power is "power analysis", a calculation of power usually done before an experiment is conducted using data from pilot studies or a literature review. Power analyses can be used to calculate the minimum sample size required so that one can be reasonably likely to detect an effect of a given size (in other ...

  8. Power of a point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_a_point

    The power of a point is a special case of the Darboux product between two circles, which is given by [10] | | where A 1 and A 2 are the centers of the two circles and r 1 and r 2 are their radii. The power of a point arises in the special case that one of the radii is zero.

  9. Stefan–Boltzmann law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stefan–Boltzmann_law

    The Stefan–Boltzmann law gives the power emitted per unit area of the emitting body, = (,) ⁡ Note that the cosine appears because black bodies are Lambertian (i.e. they obey Lambert's cosine law ), meaning that the intensity observed along the sphere will be the actual intensity times the cosine of the zenith angle.
