In mathematics (including combinatorics, linear algebra, and dynamical systems), a linear recurrence with constant coefficients [1]: ch. 17 [2]: ch. 10 (also known as a linear recurrence relation or linear difference equation) sets equal to 0 a polynomial that is linear in the various iterates of a variable—that is, in the values of the elements of a sequence.
In mathematics, a recurrence relation is an equation according to which the th term of a sequence of numbers is equal to some combination of the previous terms. Often, only previous terms of the sequence appear in the equation, for a parameter that is independent of ; this number is called the order of the relation.
The Skolem problem is named after Thoralf Skolem, because of his 1933 paper proving the Skolem–Mahler–Lech theorem on the zeros of a sequence satisfying a linear recurrence with constant coefficients. [2] This theorem states that, if such a sequence has zeros, then with finitely many exceptions the positions of the zeros repeat regularly.
The equation is called a linear recurrence with constant coefficients of order d. The order of the sequence is the smallest positive integer such that the sequence satisfies a recurrence of order d, or = for the everywhere-zero sequence. [citation needed]
In mathematics a P-recursive equation is a linear equation of sequences where the coefficient sequences can be represented as polynomials. P-recursive equations are linear recurrence equations (or linear recurrence relations or linear difference equations) with polynomial coefficients.
Adding a non-linear output mixing function (as in the xoshiro256** and permuted congruential generator constructions) can greatly improve the performance on statistical tests. Another structure for a PRNG is a very simple recurrence function combined with a powerful output mixing function.
If the {} and {} are constant and independent of the step index n, then the TTRR is a Linear recurrence with constant coefficients of order 2. Arguably the simplest, and most prominent, example for this case is the Fibonacci sequence , which has constant coefficients a n = b n = 1 {\displaystyle a_{n}=b_{n}=1} .
the linear mapping : makes a cyclic []-module, having a basis of the form {,, …,}; or equivalently [] / (()) as []-modules. If the above hold, one says that A is non-derogatory . Not every square matrix is similar to a companion matrix, but every square matrix is similar to a block diagonal matrix made of companion matrices.
