2. Arithmetic progression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_progression

   For instance, the sequence 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, . . . is an arithmetic progression with a common difference of 2. If the initial term of an arithmetic progression is a 1 {\displaystyle a_{1}} and the common difference of successive members is d {\displaystyle d} , then the n {\displaystyle n} -th term of the sequence ( a n {\displaystyle a_{n ...

3. Arithmetico-geometric sequence - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetico-geometric_sequence

   v. t. e. In mathematics, an arithmetico-geometric sequence is the result of term-by-term multiplication of a geometric progression with the corresponding terms of an arithmetic progression. The n th term of an arithmetico-geometric sequence is the product of the n th term of an arithmetic sequence and the n th term of a geometric sequence. [1]

4. nth-term test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nth-term_test

   In mathematics, the nth-term test for divergence[1] is a simple test for the divergence of an infinite series: If or if the limit does not exist, then diverges. Many authors do not name this test or give it a shorter name. [2]

5. Convergence tests - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergence_tests

   exists there are three possibilities: if L > 1 the series converges (this includes the case L = ∞) if L < 1 the series diverges. and if L = 1 the test is inconclusive. An alternative formulation of this test is as follows. Let { an } be a series of real numbers. Then if b > 1 and K (a natural number) exist such that.

6. Dirichlet's theorem on arithmetic progressions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirichlet's_theorem_on...

   Sequences dn + a with odd d are often ignored because half the numbers are even and the other half is the same numbers as a sequence with 2d, if we start with n = 0. For example, 6n + 1 produces the same primes as 3n + 1, while 6n + 5 produces the same as 3n + 2 except for the only even prime 2. The following table lists several arithmetic ...

7. Harmonic series (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_series_(mathematics)

   Calculus. In mathematics, the harmonic series is the infinite series formed by summing all positive unit fractions: The first terms of the series sum to approximately , where is the natural logarithm and is the Euler–Mascheroni constant. Because the logarithm has arbitrarily large values, the harmonic series does not have a finite limit: it ...

8. Recurrence relation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recurrence_relation

   A recurrence relation is an equation that expresses each element of a sequence as a function of the preceding ones. More precisely, in the case where only the immediately preceding element is involved, a recurrence relation has the form. where. is a function, where X is a set to which the elements of a sequence must belong.

9. Partial derivative - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_derivative

   e. In mathematics, a partial derivative of a function of several variables is its derivative with respect to one of those variables, with the others held constant (as opposed to the total derivative, in which all variables are allowed to vary). Partial derivatives are used in vector calculus and differential geometry.
