2. Lifting-the-exponent lemma - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting-the-exponent_lemma

   In elementary number theory, the lifting-the-exponent lemma (LTE lemma) provides several formulas for computing the p-adic valuation of special forms of integers. The lemma is named as such because it describes the steps necessary to "lift" the exponent of p {\displaystyle p} in such expressions.

3. Elementary algebra - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_algebra

   A quadratic equation is one which includes a term with an exponent of 2, for example, , [40] and no term with higher exponent. The name derives from the Latin quadrus , meaning square. [ 41 ] In general, a quadratic equation can be expressed in the form a x 2 + b x + c = 0 {\displaystyle ax^{2}+bx+c=0} , [ 42 ] where a is not zero (if it were ...

4. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

   In the base ten number system, integer powers of 10 are written as the digit 1 followed or preceded by a number of zeroes determined by the sign and magnitude of the exponent. For example, 10 3 = 1000 and 10 −4 = 0.0001. Exponentiation with base 10 is used in scientific notation to denote large or small numbers.

5. Algebraic operation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_operation

   Algebraic operations in the solution to the quadratic equation.The radical sign √, denoting a square root, is equivalent to exponentiation to the power of ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠.The ± sign means the equation can be written with either a + or a – sign.

6. Universal algebra - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_algebra

   Universal algebra (sometimes called general algebra) is the field of mathematics that studies algebraic structures themselves, not examples ("models") of algebraic structures. For instance, rather than take particular groups as the object of study, in universal algebra one takes the class of groups as an object of study.

7. Proof of Fermat's Last Theorem for specific exponents

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_of_Fermat's_Last...

   Fermat's Last Theorem states that no three positive integers (a, b, c) can satisfy the equation a n + b n = c n for any integer value of n greater than 2. (For n equal to 1, the equation is a linear equation and has a solution for every possible a and b.
