2. Golden ratio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_ratio

   The golden ratio φ and its negative reciprocal −φ −1 are the two roots of the quadratic polynomial x 2 − x − 1. The golden ratio's negative −φ and reciprocal φ −1 are the two roots of the quadratic polynomial x 2 + x − 1. The golden ratio is also an algebraic number and even an algebraic integer. It has minimal polynomial

3. Fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

   A unit fraction is a common fraction with a numerator of 1 (e.g., ⁠ 1 / 7 ⁠). Unit fractions can also be expressed using negative exponents, as in 2 −1, which represents 1/2, and 2 −2, which represents 1/(2 2) or 1/4. A dyadic fraction is a common fraction in which the denominator is a power of two, e.g. ⁠ 1 / 8 ⁠ = ⁠ 1 / 2 3 ⁠.

4. Square-free integer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square-free_integer

   In mathematics, a square-free integer (or squarefree integer) is an integer which is divisible by no square number other than 1. That is, its prime factorization has exactly one factor for each prime that appears in it. For example, 10 = 2 ⋅ 5 is square-free, but 18 = 2 ⋅ 3 ⋅ 3 is not, because 18 is divisible by 9 = 32.

5. Periodic continued fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_continued_fraction

   Periodic continued fraction. In mathematics, an infinite periodic continued fraction is a continued fraction that can be placed in the form. where the initial block [a0, a1,... ak] of k +1 partial denominators is followed by a block [ak+1, ak+2,... ak+m] of m partial denominators that repeats ad infinitum. For example, can be expanded to the ...

   This decimal format can also represent any binary fraction a/2 m, such as 1/8 (0.125) or 17/32 (0.53125). More generally, a rational number a / b , with a and b relatively prime and b positive, can be exactly represented in binary fixed point only if b is a power of 2; and in decimal fixed point only if b has no prime factors other than 2 and/or 5.

7. Continued fraction - Wikipedia

   Continued fraction. A finite regular continued fraction, where is a non-negative integer, is an integer, and is a positive integer, for . In mathematics, a continued fraction is an expression obtained through an iterative process of representing a number as the sum of its integer part and the reciprocal of another number, then writing this ...
