  2. Euclidean algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_algorithm

    The number 1 (expressed as a fraction 1/1) is placed at the root of the tree, and the location of any other number a/b can be found by computing gcd(a,b) using the original form of the Euclidean algorithm, in which each step replaces the larger of the two given numbers by its difference with the smaller number (not its remainder), stopping when ...

  3. Coin problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coin_problem

    The Frobenius number exists as long as the set of coin denominations is setwise coprime. There is an explicit formula for the Frobenius number when there are only two different coin denominations, and , where the greatest common divisor of these two numbers is 1: . If the number of coin denominations is three or more, no explicit formula is known.

  4. Greatest common divisor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greatest_common_divisor

    If one uses the Euclidean algorithm and the elementary algorithms for multiplication and division, the computation of the greatest common divisor of two integers of at most n bits is O(n 2). This means that the computation of greatest common divisor has, up to a constant factor, the same complexity as the multiplication.

  5. Matrix norm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_norm

    The Frobenius norm is an extension of the Euclidean norm to and comes from the Frobenius inner product on the space of all matrices. The Frobenius norm is sub-multiplicative and is very useful for numerical linear algebra. The sub-multiplicativity of Frobenius norm can be proved using Cauchy–Schwarz inequality.

  6. Orthogonal Procrustes problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonal_Procrustes_problem

    where ‖ ‖ denotes the Frobenius norm. This is a special case of Wahba's problem (with identical weights; instead of considering two matrices, in Wahba's problem the columns of the matrices are considered as individual vectors). Another difference is that Wahba's problem tries to find a proper rotation matrix instead of just an orthogonal one.

  7. Polynomial greatest common divisor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_greatest_common...

    This concept is analogous to the greatest common divisor of two integers. In the important case of univariate polynomials over a field the polynomial GCD may be computed, like for the integer GCD, by the Euclidean algorithm using long division. The polynomial GCD is defined only up to the multiplication by an invertible constant.

  8. Frobenius method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frobenius_method

    Some solutions of a differential equation having a regular singular point with indicial roots = and .. In mathematics, the method of Frobenius, named after Ferdinand Georg Frobenius, is a way to find an infinite series solution for a linear second-order ordinary differential equation of the form ″ + ′ + = with ′ and ″.

  9. Gröbner basis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gröbner_basis

    where gcd denotes the greatest common divisor of the leading monomials of f and g. As the monomials that are reducible by both f and g are exactly the multiples of lcm, one can deal with all cases of non-uniqueness of the reduction by considering only the S-polynomials. This is a fundamental fact for Gröbner basis theory and all algorithms for ...
