  2. Convert a recursive sequence formula to explicit

    math.stackexchange.com/questions/810160

    Substitute into the formula for vn: vn = An − 1v1 vn = An − 1(c1x1 + c2x2) vn = c1An − 1x1 + c2An − 1x2 vn = c1λn − 11 x1 + c2λn − 12 x2. With all this laid out now one needs to find the eigenvalues/vectors of your specific recursive sequence: Ax = λx (A − λI)x = 0.

  3. calculus - How to find the limit of recursive sequence? -...

    math.stackexchange.com/questions/530535

    an = b(2)n + c(− 1)n. and to solve for b and c we just plug in the n = 0 and n = 1 values to make two linear equations and solve them. It’s not too hard to show b = 1 / 3 and c = − 1 / 3 so ultimately an = ((2)n − (− 1)n) / 3 and then you can compute the limit. remember that the power of two will end up overwhelming the (− 1)n so in ...

  4. Prove that infinite recursive sequence has limit and calculate it. x1 = 0. xn + 2 = 1 2(xn + xn + 1) I've tried to separate it to even and odd partial series and it looks like one of them is increasing and another is decreasing. But I can't prove that they are increasing and decreasing, because I don't know how to express xn from a recurrence ...

    math.stackexchange.com/questions/285717

    All solutions to the recurrence relation an + 1 = san + t with s ≠ 1 have the form: an = c1sn + c2, where c1 and c2 are specific constants. In the problem s = 1 / 2. Therefore, an = c1(1 / 2)n + c2. Taking into account a0 = 4 and a1 = 3, one can obtain c1 = 2 = c2. Hence, an = 21 − n + 2. Share.

  6. Show convergence of recursive sequence and find limit value

    math.stackexchange.com/questions/2515043

    Prove that the recursive sequence $(a_n)_{n \ge 1}$ is convergent and find its limit. 1.

  7. Limit of this recursive sequence and convergence

    4. By the continuity of our recursive definition: if this sequence converges to a limit a, then that limit will be a solution to the equation a = √4a + 3 So, solving for a, we have a2 − 4a − 3 = 0 a = 4 ± √42 + 4 ⋅ 3 2 = 2 ± √7 Plugging into the original equation, we find that 2 − √7 is an extraneous root, so that the only ...

    math.stackexchange.com/.../1569860/how-to-find-formula-for-recursive-sequence-sum

    You can rewrite this recurrence as a = n ∑ i = 0i = = n2 + n 2. The sum of triangular numbers yields the tetrahedral numbers who satisfy the equation T = ∑ i = 0 = (n)(n + 1)(n + 2) 6. The derivation of this equation can be seen here. Share.

  9. sequences and series - Convert Recursive to Closed Formula ...

    math.stackexchange.com/questions/130917/convert-recursive-to-closed-formula

    I need help converting it to a closed form so I can calculate very large values of n efficiently. The sequence that I produced this recursive formula from is: n = 1 to 10: 1,1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256. n = 11 to 15: 511,1021,2040,4076,8144. The formula is "quirky" for 1 to 10, but works exactly as stated for all n > 10;

  10. In the Wikipedia page of the Fibonacci sequence, I found the following statement: Like every sequence defined by a linear recurrence with linear coefficients, the Fibonacci numbers have a closed form solution. The closed form expression of the Fibonacci sequence is: Another example, from this question, is this recursive sequence:

    math.stackexchange.com/questions/2582895/finding-the-limit-of-a-recursive-sequence

    We have that an ≥ 1, ∀n ∈ N thus lim sup n an ≥ lim inf n an ≥ 1. Let lim infnan = l. Then we have that l2 − l − 2 = 0 thus l = 2, − 1. But an ≥ 1 thus l = 2. Applying the same argument we prove that lim supnan = 2. Also we can also derive a contradiction if we assume that the limit superior and inferior are infinite.
