In mathematics, summation is the addition of a sequence of numbers, called addends or summands; the result is their sum or total. Beside numbers, other types of values can be summed as well: functions, vectors, matrices, polynomials and, in general, elements of any type of mathematical objects on which an operation denoted "+" is defined.
In mathematics, especially the usage of linear algebra in mathematical physics and differential geometry, Einstein notation (also known as the Einstein summation convention or Einstein summation notation) is a notational convention that implies summation over a set of indexed terms in a formula, thus achieving brevity.
3. Between two groups, may mean that the first one is a proper subgroup of the second one. > (greater-than sign) 1. Strict inequality between two numbers; means and is read as "greater than". 2. Commonly used for denoting any strict order. 3. Between two groups, may mean that the second one is a proper subgroup of the first one. ≤ 1.
Sum of sets The Minkowski sum of two sets A {\displaystyle A} and B {\displaystyle B} of real numbers is the set A + B := { a + b : a ∈ A , b ∈ B } {\displaystyle A+B~:=~\{a+b:a\in A,b\in B\}} consisting of all possible arithmetic sums of pairs of numbers, one from each set.
The geometric series is an infinite series derived from a special type of sequence called a geometric progression.This means that it is the sum of infinitely many terms of geometric progression: starting from the initial term , and the next one being the initial term multiplied by a constant number known as the common ratio .
the stack alphabet in the formal definition of a pushdown automaton, or the tape-alphabet in the formal definition of a Turing machine; the Feferman–Schütte ordinal Γ 0 [17] represents: the specific weight of substances; the lower incomplete gamma function; the third angle in a triangle, opposite the side c
The direct sum is an operation between structures in abstract algebra, a branch of mathematics.It is defined differently but analogously for different kinds of structures. As an example, the direct sum of two abelian groups and is another abelian group consisting of the ordered pairs (,) where and
When is a periodic summation of another function, , then is known as a circular or cyclic convolution of and . And if the periodic summation above is replaced by f T {\displaystyle f_{T}} , the operation is called a periodic convolution of f T {\displaystyle f_{T}} and g T {\displaystyle g_{T}} .
