  2. Newton's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_method

    An illustration of Newton's method. In numerical analysis, the Newton–Raphson method, also known simply as Newton's method, named after Isaac Newton and Joseph Raphson, is a root-finding algorithm which produces successively better approximations to the roots (or zeroes) of a real-valued function.

  3. Generating function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generating_function

    More generally, suppose that a ≥ 3 and that ω a = exp ⁠ 2πi / a ⁠ denotes the a th primitive root of unity. Then, as an application of the discrete Fourier transform , we have the formula [ 15 ] ∑ n = 0 ∞ f a n + b z a n + b = 1 a ∑ m = 0 a − 1 ω a − m b F ( ω a m z ) . {\displaystyle \sum _{n=0}^{\infty }f_{an+b}z^{an+b ...

  4. List of most-downloaded Google Play applications - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_most-downloaded...

    The 500-million download threshold for free applications has been established to maintain the list's manageability and focus on the most widely distributed apps. It's worth noting that many of the applications in this list are distributed pre-installed on top-selling Android devices [ 2 ] and may be considered bloatware by some people because ...

  5. Determinant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Determinant

    There are various equivalent ways to define the determinant of a square matrix A, i.e. one with the same number of rows and columns: the determinant can be defined via the Leibniz formula, an explicit formula involving sums of products of certain entries of the matrix. The determinant can also be characterized as the unique function depending ...

  6. Singular value decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singular_value_decomposition

    Consequently, if all singular values of a square matrix ⁠ ⁠ are non-degenerate and non-zero, then its singular value decomposition is unique, up to multiplication of a column of ⁠ ⁠ by a unit-phase factor and simultaneous multiplication of the corresponding column of ⁠ ⁠ by the same unit-phase factor.

  7. Window function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Window_function

    The confined Gaussian window yields the smallest possible root mean square frequency width σ ω for a given temporal width (N + 1) σ t. [49] These windows optimize the RMS time-frequency bandwidth products. They are computed as the minimum eigenvectors of a parameter-dependent matrix.

  8. Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gottfried_Wilhelm_Leibniz

    Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (or Leibnitz; [a] 1 July 1646 [O.S. 21 June] – 14 November 1716) was a German polymath active as a mathematician, philosopher, scientist and diplomat who is credited, alongside Sir Isaac Newton, with the creation of calculus in addition to many other branches of mathematics, such as binary arithmetic and statistics.

  9. Chebyshev's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev's_inequality

    Let X (integrable) be a random variable with finite non-zero variance σ 2 (and thus finite expected value μ). [9] Then for any real number k > 0, (| |).Only the case > is useful. . When the right-hand side and the inequality is trivial as all probabilities are ≤
