  2. Bertrand's postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertrand's_postulate

    His conjecture was completely proved by Chebyshev (1821–1894) in 1852 [3] and so the postulate is also called the Bertrand–Chebyshev theorem or Chebyshev's theorem. Chebyshev's theorem can also be stated as a relationship with π ( x ) {\displaystyle \pi (x)} , the prime-counting function (number of primes less than or equal to x ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev's_theorem

    Chebyshev's sum inequality, about sums and products of decreasing sequences Chebyshev's equioscillation theorem , on the approximation of continuous functions with polynomials The statement that if the function π ( x ) ln ⁡ x / x {\textstyle \pi (x)\ln x/x} has a limit at infinity, then the limit is 1 (where π is the prime-counting function).

  4. Proof of Bertrand's postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_of_Bertrand's_postulate

    In mathematics, Bertrand's postulate (now a theorem) states that, for each , there is a prime such that < <.First conjectured in 1845 by Joseph Bertrand, [1] it was first proven by Chebyshev, and a shorter but also advanced proof was given by Ramanujan.

  5. Chebyshev's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev's_inequality

    The rule is often called Chebyshev's theorem, about the range of standard deviations around the mean, in statistics. The inequality has great utility because it can be applied to any probability distribution in which the mean and variance are defined. For example, it can be used to prove the weak law of large numbers.

  6. Cognate linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognate_linkage

    Roberts–Chebyshev theorem [ edit ] The theorem states, for a given coupler curve produced by a four-bar linkage with four revolute (hinge) joints, there exist three four-bar linkages, three geared five-bar linkages, and more six-bar linkages which will generate the same path.

  7. Method of moments (probability theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_moments...

    The method of moments was introduced by Pafnuty Chebyshev for proving the central limit theorem; Chebyshev cited earlier contributions by Irénée-Jules Bienaymé. [2] More recently, it has been applied by Eugene Wigner to prove Wigner's semicircle law, and has since found numerous applications in the theory of random matrices. [3]
