  2. Taylor series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor_series

    The Taylor series of any polynomial is the polynomial itself.. The Maclaurin series of ⁠ 1 / 1 − x ⁠ is the geometric series + + + +. So, by substituting x for 1 − x, the Taylor series of ⁠ 1 / x ⁠ at a = 1 is

  3. Binomial series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_series

    where the power series on the right-hand side of is expressed in terms of the (generalized) binomial coefficients ():= () (+)!.Note that if α is a nonnegative integer n then the x n + 1 term and all later terms in the series are 0, since each contains a factor of (n − n).

  4. List of mathematical series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_series

    An infinite series of any rational function of can be reduced to a finite series of polygamma functions, by use of partial fraction decomposition, [8] as explained here. This fact can also be applied to finite series of rational functions, allowing the result to be computed in constant time even when the series contains a large number of terms.

  5. Small-angle approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small-angle_approximation

    The most direct method is to truncate the Maclaurin series for each of the trigonometric functions. Depending on the order of the approximation , cos ⁡ θ {\displaystyle \textstyle \cos \theta } is approximated as either 1 {\displaystyle 1} or as 1 − 1 2 θ 2 {\textstyle 1-{\frac {1}{2}}\theta ^{2}} .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Even_and_odd_functions

    The Maclaurin series of an even function includes only even powers. The Maclaurin series of an odd function includes only odd powers. The Fourier series of a periodic even function includes only cosine terms. The Fourier series of a periodic odd function includes only sine terms. The Fourier transform of a purely real-valued even function is ...

  7. Logarithmic distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_distribution

    In probability and statistics, the logarithmic distribution (also known as the logarithmic series distribution or the log-series distribution) is a discrete probability distribution derived from the Maclaurin series expansion ⁡ = + + +.

  8. List of limits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_limits

    In general, any infinite series is the limit of its partial sums. For example, an analytic function is the limit of its Taylor series, within its radius of convergence. = =. This is known as the harmonic series. [6]

  9. Convergent series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergent_series

    The Maclaurin series of the logarithm function ⁡ (+) is conditionally convergent for x = 1 (see the Mercator series). The Riemann series theorem states that if a series converges conditionally, it is possible to rearrange the terms of the series in such a way that the series converges to any value, or even diverges.
