  2. Binomial coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_coefficient

    The binomial coefficients can be arranged to form Pascal's triangle, in which each entry is the sum of the two immediately above. Visualisation of binomial expansion up to the 4th power. In mathematics, the binomial coefficients are the positive integers that occur as coefficients in the binomial theorem.

  3. Binomial theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_theorem

    In elementary algebra, the binomial theorem (or binomial expansion) describes the algebraic expansion of powers of a binomial.According to the theorem, the power ⁠ (+) ⁠ expands into a polynomial with terms of the form ⁠ ⁠, where the exponents ⁠ ⁠ and ⁠ ⁠ are nonnegative integers satisfying ⁠ + = ⁠ and the coefficient ⁠ ⁠ of each term is a specific positive integer ...

  4. Pascal's triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal's_triangle

    In mathematics, Pascal's triangle is an infinite triangular array of the binomial coefficients which play a crucial role in probability theory, combinatorics, and algebra.In much of the Western world, it is named after the French mathematician Blaise Pascal, although other mathematicians studied it centuries before him in Persia, [1] India, [2] China, Germany, and Italy.

  5. Multinomial theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multinomial_theorem

    Multinomial coefficient as a product of binomial coefficients, counting the permutations of the letters of MISSISSIPPI. The multinomial coefficient (, …,) is also the number of distinct ways to permute a multiset of n elements, where k i is the multiplicity of each of the i th element. For example, the number of distinct permutations of the ...

  6. Binomial series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_series

    where the power series on the right-hand side of is expressed in terms of the (generalized) binomial coefficients ():= () (+)!.Note that if α is a nonnegative integer n then the x n + 1 term and all later terms in the series are 0, since each contains a factor of (n − n).

  7. Gaussian binomial coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_binomial_coefficient

    The Gaussian binomial coefficient, written as () or [], is a polynomial in q with integer coefficients, whose value when q is set to a prime power counts the number of subspaces of dimension k in a vector space of dimension n over , a finite field with q elements; i.e. it is the number of points in the finite Grassmannian (,).

  8. Pascal's pyramid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal's_pyramid

    Pascal's pyramid is the three-dimensional analog of the two-dimensional Pascal's triangle, which contains the binomial numbers and relates to the binomial expansion and the binomial distribution. The binomial and trinomial numbers, coefficients, expansions, and distributions are subsets of the multinomial constructs with the same names.

  9. Pascal's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal's_rule

    In mathematics, Pascal's rule (or Pascal's formula) is a combinatorial identity about binomial coefficients.It states that for positive natural numbers n and k, + = (), where () is a binomial coefficient; one interpretation of the coefficient of the x k term in the expansion of (1 + x) n.
