  2. Birthday problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birthday_problem

    Evaluating equation gives P(A′) ≈ 0.492703. Therefore, P(B) ≈ 1 − 0.492703 = 0.507297 (50.7297%). This process can be generalized to a group of n people, where p(n) is the probability of at least two of the n people sharing a birthday. It is easier to first calculate the probability p (n) that all n birthdays are different.

  3. Pollard's rho algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pollard's_rho_algorithm

    If the pseudorandom number = occurring in the Pollard ρ algorithm were an actual random number, it would follow that success would be achieved half the time, by the birthday paradox in () (/) iterations. It is believed that the same analysis applies as well to the actual rho algorithm, but this is a heuristic claim, and rigorous analysis of ...

    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. In 2020, the company was acquired by American educational technology website Course Hero. [3] [4]

  5. File:Birthday paradox approximation.svg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Birthday_paradox...

    English: A graph comparing the accuracy of an approximation of the probability that in a room with n people (shown along the horizontal axis), some two (or more) will share a birthday. The black line, represents the computed probability.

  6. File:Birthday paradox probability.svg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Birthday_paradox...

    English: In probability theory, the birthday paradox concerns the probability that, in a set of n randomly chosen people, some pair of them will have the same birthday. By the pigeonhole principle, the probability reaches 100% when the number of people reaches 367 (since there are 366 possible birthdays, including February 29).

  7. Birthday attack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birthday_attack

    A birthday attack is a bruteforce collision attack that exploits the mathematics behind the birthday problem in probability theory. This attack can be used to abuse communication between two or more parties. The attack depends on the higher likelihood of collisions found between random attack attempts and a fixed degree of permutations ...

  8. Urn problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urn_problem

    Occupancy problem: the distribution of the number of occupied urns after the random assignment of k balls into n urns, related to the coupon collector's problem and birthday problem. Pólya urn: each time a ball of a particular colour is drawn, it is replaced along with an additional ball of the same colour.

  9. Initial value problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initial_value_problem

    In multivariable calculus, an initial value problem [a] (IVP) is an ordinary differential equation together with an initial condition which specifies the value of the unknown function at a given point in the domain. Modeling a system in physics or other sciences frequently amounts to solving an initial value problem.
