  2. Binomial theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_theorem

    In elementary algebra, the binomial theorem (or binomial expansion) describes the algebraic expansion of powers of a binomial.According to the theorem, it is possible to expand the polynomial (x + y) n into a sum involving terms of the form ax b y c, where the exponents b and c are nonnegative integers with b + c = n, and the coefficient a of each term is a specific positive integer depending ...

  3. Simon's problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon's_problem

    Simon's problem. In computational complexity theory and quantum computing, Simon's problem is a computational problem that is proven to be solved exponentially faster on a quantum computer than on a classical (that is, traditional) computer. The quantum algorithm solving Simon's problem, usually called Simon's algorithm, served as the ...

  4. Binomial approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_approximation

    The binomial approximation is useful for approximately calculating powers of sums of 1 and a small number x. It states that. It is valid when and where and may be real or complex numbers. The benefit of this approximation is that is converted from an exponent to a multiplicative factor. This can greatly simplify mathematical expressions (as in ...

  5. Taylor series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor_series

    t. e. In mathematics, the Taylor series or Taylor expansion of a function is an infinite sum of terms that are expressed in terms of the function's derivatives at a single point. For most common functions, the function and the sum of its Taylor series are equal near this point.

  6. Hermite polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermite_polynomials

    Hermite polynomials were defined by Pierre-Simon Laplace in 1810, [1] [2] though in scarcely recognizable form, and studied in detail by Pafnuty Chebyshev in 1859. [3] Chebyshev's work was overlooked, and they were named later after Charles Hermite , who wrote on the polynomials in 1864, describing them as new. [ 4 ]

  7. Polynomial expansion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_expansion

    In mathematics, an expansion of a product of sums expresses it as a sum of products by using the fact that multiplication distributes over addition. Expansion of a polynomial expression can be obtained by repeatedly replacing subexpressions that multiply two other subexpressions, at least one of which is an addition, by the equivalent sum of products, continuing until the expression becomes a ...

    is a horizontal line with y-intercept a0. The graph of a degree 1 polynomial (or linear function) f(x) = a0 + a1x, where a1 ≠ 0, is an oblique line with y-intercept a0 and slope a1. The graph of a degree 2 polynomial. f(x) = a0 + a1x + a2x2, where a2 ≠ 0. is a parabola. The graph of a degree 3 polynomial.
