Cyclic numbers are related to the recurring digital representations of unit fractions. A cyclic number of length L is the digital representation of 1/(L + 1). Conversely, if the digital period of 1/p (where p is prime) is p − 1, then the digits represent a cyclic number. For example: 1/7 = 0.142857 142857...
Cyclic number, a number such that cyclic permutations of the digits are successive multiples of the number; Cyclic order, a ternary relation defining a way to arrange a set of objects in a circle; Cyclic permutation, a permutation with one nontrivial orbit; Cyclic polygon, a polygon which can be given a circumscribed circle
A cyclic number [1] [2] is a natural number n such that n and φ(n) are coprime. Here φ is Euler's totient function. An equivalent definition is that a number n is cyclic if and only if any group of order n is cyclic. [3] Any prime number is clearly cyclic. All cyclic numbers are square-free. [4] Let n = p 1 p 2 …
Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011.
The Hamming(7,4) code may be written as a cyclic code over GF(2) with generator + +. In fact, any binary Hamming code of the form Ham(r, 2) is equivalent to a cyclic code, [3] and any Hamming code of the form Ham(r,q) with r and q-1 relatively prime is also equivalent to a cyclic code. [4]
The primary difference between a computer algebra system and a traditional calculator is the ability to deal with equations symbolically rather than numerically. The precise uses and capabilities of these systems differ greatly from one system to another, yet their purpose remains the same: manipulation of symbolic equations.
In algebra, a cyclic division algebra is one of the basic examples of a division algebra over a field and plays a key role in the theory of central simple algebras. Definition [ edit ]
A cyclic group is a group which is equal to one of its cyclic subgroups: G = g for some element g, called a generator of G. For a finite cyclic group G of order n we have G = {e, g, g 2, ... , g n−1}, where e is the identity element and g i = g j whenever i ≡ j (mod n); in particular g n = g 0 = e, and g −1 = g n−1.
