  2. Arithmetic progression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_progression

    Proof without words of the arithmetic progression formulas using a rotated copy of the blocks. An arithmetic progression or arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers such that the difference from any succeeding term to its preceding term remains constant throughout the sequence. The constant difference is called common difference of that ...

  3. Dirichlet's theorem on arithmetic progressions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirichlet's_theorem_on...

    Although the proof of Dirichlet's Theorem makes use of calculus and analytic number theory, some proofs of examples are much more straightforward. In particular, the proof of the example of infinitely many primes of the form + makes an argument similar to the one made in the proof of Euclid's theorem (Silverman 2013). The proof is given below:

    The partial sums of the series 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + ⋯ are 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, etc.The nth partial sum is given by a simple formula: = = (+). This equation was known ...

  5. Roth's theorem on arithmetic progressions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roth's_Theorem_on...

    Roth's theorem on arithmetic progressions (infinite version): A subset of the natural numbers with positive upper density contains a 3-term arithmetic progression. An alternate, more qualitative, formulation of the theorem is concerned with the maximum size of a Salem–Spencer set which is a subset of [ N ] = { 1 , … , N } {\displaystyle [N ...

  6. Primes in arithmetic progression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primes_in_arithmetic...

    In number theory, primes in arithmetic progression are any sequence of at least three prime numbers that are consecutive terms in an arithmetic progression. An example is the sequence of primes (3, 7, 11), which is given by a n = 3 + 4 n {\displaystyle a_{n}=3+4n} for 0 ≤ n ≤ 2 {\displaystyle 0\leq n\leq 2} .

    An inductive proof for arithmetic progressions was introduced in the Al-Fakhri (1000) ... A formal proof is a sequence of formulas in a formal language, starting with ...

  8. Series (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, a series is, roughly speaking, an addition of infinitely many terms, one after the other. [1] The study of series is a major part of calculus and its generalization, mathematical analysis. Series are used in most areas of mathematics, even for studying finite structures in combinatorics through generating functions.
