  2. 1729 (number) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1729_(number)

    1729 (number) 1729 is the natural number following 1728 and preceding 1730. It is the first nontrivial taxicab number, expressed as the sum of two cubic numbers in two different ways. It is also known as the Ramanujan number or Hardy–Ramanujan number, named after G. H. Hardy and Srinivasa Ramanujan.

  3. Taxicab number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxicab_number

    In mathematics, the n th taxicab number, typically denoted Ta (n) or Taxicab (n), is defined as the smallest integer that can be expressed as a sum of two positive integer cubes in n distinct ways. [1] The most famous taxicab number is 1729 = Ta (2) = 1 3 + 12 3 = 9 3 + 10 3, also known as the Hardy-Ramanujan number. [2][3]

  4. Cube (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_(algebra)

    The cube of a number or any other mathematical expression is denoted by a superscript 3, for example 2 3 = 8 or (x + 1) 3. The cube is also the number multiplied by its square: n 3 = n × n 2 = n × n × n. The cube function is the function x ↦ x 3 (often denoted y = x 3) that maps a number to its cube. It is an odd function, as

  5. Sum of two cubes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sum_of_two_cubes

    A Cabtaxi number is the smallest positive number that can be expressed as a sum of two integer cubes in n ways, allowing the cubes to be negative or zero as well as positive. The smallest cabtaxi number after Cabtaxi (1) = 0, is Cabtaxi (2) = 91, [5] expressed as: Cabtaxi (3), the smallest Cabtaxi number expressed in 3 different ways, is 4104 ...

  6. Carmichael number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carmichael_number

    The second Carmichael number (1105) can be expressed as the sum of two squares in more ways than any smaller number. The third Carmichael number (1729) is the Hardy-Ramanujan Number: the smallest number that can be expressed as the sum of two cubes (of positive numbers) in two different ways.

  7. Cube root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_root

    Cube root. In mathematics, a cube root of a number x is a number y such that y3 = x. All nonzero real numbers have exactly one real cube root and a pair of complex conjugate cube roots, and all nonzero complex numbers have three distinct complex cube roots. For example, the real cube root of 8, denoted , is 2, because 23 = 8, while the other ...

  8. Waring's problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waring's_problem

    In number theory, Waring's problem asks whether each natural number k has an associated positive integer s such that every natural number is the sum of at most s natural numbers raised to the power k. For example, every natural number is the sum of at most 4 squares, 9 cubes, or 19 fourth powers. Waring's problem was proposed in 1770 by Edward ...

  9. C mathematical functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_mathematical_functions

    The type-generic macros that correspond to a function that is defined for only real numbers encapsulates a total of 3 different functions: float, double and long double variants of the function. The C++ language includes native support for function overloading and thus does not provide the <tgmath.h> header even as a compatibility feature.
