  2. Rate of convergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_convergence

    In asymptotic analysis in general, one sequence () that converges to a limit is said to asymptotically converge to with a faster order of convergence than another sequence () that converges to in a shared metric space with distance metric | |, such as the real numbers or complex numbers with the ordinary absolute difference metrics, if

  3. Radius of convergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radius_of_convergence

    Two cases arise: The first case is theoretical: when you know all the coefficients then you take certain limits and find the precise radius of convergence.; The second case is practical: when you construct a power series solution of a difficult problem you typically will only know a finite number of terms in a power series, anywhere from a couple of terms to a hundred terms.

  4. Conjugate gradient method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_gradient_method

    A comparison of the convergence of gradient descent with optimal step size (in green) and conjugate vector (in red) for minimizing a quadratic function associated with a given linear system. Conjugate gradient, assuming exact arithmetic, converges in at most n steps, where n is the size of the matrix of the system (here n = 2).

  5. Convergence of random variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergence_of_random...

    Convergence in distribution is the weakest form of convergence typically discussed, since it is implied by all other types of convergence mentioned in this article. However, convergence in distribution is very frequently used in practice; most often it arises from application of the central limit theorem .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolzano–Weierstrass_theorem

    We take = [,] as the first interval for the sequence of nested intervals. Then we split I 1 {\displaystyle I_{1}} at the mid into two equally sized subintervals. Because each sequence has infinitely many members, there must be (at least) one of these subintervals that contains infinitely many members of ( x n ) n ∈ N {\displaystyle (x_{n})_{n ...

  9. Aitken's delta-squared process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aitken's_delta-squared_process

    In numerical analysis, Aitken's delta-squared process or Aitken extrapolation is a series acceleration method used for accelerating the rate of convergence of a sequence. It is named after Alexander Aitken, who introduced this method in 1926. [1] It is most useful for accelerating the convergence of a sequence that is converging linearly.
