  2. Bézout's identity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bézout's_identity

    Here the greatest common divisor of 0 and 0 is taken to be 0.The integers x and y are called Bézout coefficients for (a, b); they are not unique.A pair of Bézout coefficients can be computed by the extended Euclidean algorithm, and this pair is, in the case of integers one of the two pairs such that | x | ≤ | b/d | and | y | ≤ | a/d |; equality occurs only if one of a and b is a multiple ...

  3. Direct product of groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_product_of_groups

    The resulting algebraic object satisfies the axioms for a group. Specifically: Associativity The binary operation on G × H is associative. Identity The direct product has an identity element, namely (1 G, 1 H), where 1 G is the identity element of G and 1 H is the identity element of H.

  4. Farkas' lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farkas'_lemma

    There exist y 1, y 2 such that 6y 1 + 3y 2 ≥ 0, 4y 1 ≥ 0, and b 1 y 1 + b 2 y 2 < 0. Here is a proof of the lemma in this special case: If b 2 ≥ 0 and b 1 − 2b 2 ≥ 0, then option 1 is true, since the solution of the linear equations is = and =.

  5. Beal conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beal_conjecture

    Any solutions to the Beal conjecture will necessarily involve three terms all of which are 3-powerful numbers, i.e. numbers where the exponent of every prime factor is at least three. It is known that there are an infinite number of such sums involving coprime 3-powerful numbers; [11] however, such sums are rare. The smallest two examples are:

  6. Cantor's diagonal argument - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantor's_diagonal_argument

    Cantor's diagonal argument (among various similar names [note 1]) is a mathematical proof that there are infinite sets which cannot be put into one-to-one correspondence with the infinite set of natural numbers – informally, that there are sets which in some sense contain more elements than there are positive integers.

  7. Proofs involving the addition of natural numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proofs_involving_the...

    We prove commutativity (a + b = b + a) by applying induction on the natural number b. First we prove the base cases b = 0 and b = S(0) = 1 (i.e. we prove that 0 and 1 commute with everything). The base case b = 0 follows immediately from the identity element property (0 is an additive identity), which has been proved above: a + 0 = a = 0 + a.

  8. Sylvester equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylvester_equation

    Proof. The equation A X + X B = C {\displaystyle AX+XB=C} is a linear system with m n {\displaystyle mn} unknowns and the same number of equations. Hence it is uniquely solvable for any given C {\displaystyle C} if and only if the homogeneous equation A X + X B = 0 {\displaystyle AX+XB=0} admits only the trivial solution 0 {\displaystyle 0} .

  9. 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 ″.
