  2. Even and odd functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Even_and_odd_functions

    That implies that product of any number of even functions is an even function as well. The product of two odd functions is an even function. The product of an even function and an odd function is an odd function. The quotient of two even functions is an even function. The quotient of two odd functions is an even function.

  3. Parity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Even and odd numbers have opposite parities, e.g., 22 (even number) and 13 (odd number) have opposite parities. In particular, the parity of zero is even. [2] Any two consecutive integers have opposite parity. A number (i.e., integer) expressed in the decimal numeral system is even or odd according to whether its last digit is even or odd. That ...

  4. Parity of a permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_of_a_permutation

    The numbers in the right column are the inversion numbers (sequence A034968 in the OEIS), which have the same parity as the permutation. In mathematics, when X is a finite set with at least two elements, the permutations of X (i.e. the bijective functions from X to X) fall into two classes of equal size: the even permutations and the odd ...

  5. Parity function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_function

    In Boolean algebra, a parity function is a Boolean function whose value is one if and only if the input vector has an odd number of ones. The parity function of two inputs is also known as the XOR function. The parity function is notable for its role in theoretical investigation of circuit complexity of Boolean functions.

  6. Floor and ceiling functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_and_ceiling_functions

    In mathematics, the floor function is the function that takes as input a real number x, and gives as output the greatest integer less than or equal to x, denoted ⌊x⌋ or floor(x). Similarly, the ceiling function maps x to the least integer greater than or equal to x, denoted ⌈x⌉ or ceil(x). [1]

  7. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

    The resulting function f maps from odd numbers to odd numbers. Now suppose that for some odd number n , applying this operation k times yields the number 1 (that is, f k ( n ) = 1 ). Then in binary , the number n can be written as the concatenation of strings w k w k −1 ...

  8. Partition function (number theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_function_(number...

    The function q(n) gives the number of these strict partitions of the given sum n. For example, q(3) = 2 because the partitions 3 and 1 + 2 are strict, while the third partition 1 + 1 + 1 of 3 has repeated parts. The number q(n) is also equal to the number of partitions of n in which only odd summands are permitted. [20]

  9. Algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebra

    This is the case because the sum of two even numbers is again an even number. But the set of odd integers together with addition is not a subalgebra because it is not closed: adding two odd numbers produces an even number, which is not part of the chosen subset. [83] Universal algebra is the study of algebraic structures in general.
