  2. Hilbert's tenth problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert's_tenth_problem

    Hilbert's tenth problem is the tenth on the list of mathematical problems that the German mathematician David Hilbert posed in 1900. It is the challenge to provide a general algorithm that, for any given Diophantine equation (a polynomial equation with integer coefficients and a finite number of unknowns), can decide whether the equation has a solution with all unknowns taking integer values.

  3. Equation solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_solving

    It is also possible to take the variable y to be the unknown, and then the equation is solved by y = x1. Or x and y can both be treated as unknowns, and then there are many solutions to the equation; a symbolic solution is (x, y) = (a + 1, a), where the variable a may take any value. Instantiating a symbolic solution with specific numbers ...

  4. Pell's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pell's_equation

    Pell's equation for n = 2 and six of its integer solutions. Pell's equation, also called the Pell–Fermat equation, is any Diophantine equation of the form =, where n is a given positive nonsquare integer, and integer solutions are sought for x and y.

  6. Mental calculation - Wikipedia

    For example: 24 x 11 = 264 because 2 + 4 = 6 and the 6 is placed in between the 2 and the 4. Second example: 87 x 11 = 957 because 8 + 7 = 15 so the 5 goes in between the 8 and the 7 and the 1 is carried to the 8. So it is basically 857 + 100 = 957.

  7. Shooting method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shooting_method

    Inspecting the plot of F, we see that there are roots near −8 and −36. Some trajectories of w(t;s) are shown in the Figure 1. Stoer and Bulirsch [2] state that there are two solutions, which can be found by algebraic methods. These correspond to the initial conditions w′(0) = −8 and w′(0) = −35.9 (approximately).

  8. Fixed-point iteration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-point_iteration

    The fixed point iteration x n+1 = cos x n with initial value x 1 = −1.. An attracting fixed point of a function f is a fixed point x fix of f with a neighborhood U of "close enough" points around x fix such that for any value of x in U, the fixed-point iteration sequence , (), (()), ((())), … is contained in U and converges to x fix.

  9. Relaxation (iterative method) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relaxation_(iterative_method)

    Relaxation methods are used to solve the linear equations resulting from a discretization of the differential equation, for example by finite differences. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Iterative relaxation of solutions is commonly dubbed smoothing because with certain equations, such as Laplace's equation , it resembles repeated application of a local ...
