Aliquot Sequence
In mathematics, an aliquot sequence is a sequence of positive integers in which each term is the sum of the proper divisors of the previous term. If the sequence reaches the number 1, it ends, since the sum of the proper divisors of 1 is 0. Definition and overview The aliquot sequence starting with a positive integer can be defined formally in terms of the sum-of-divisors function or the aliquot sum function in the following way: \begin s_0 &= k \\ pts_n &= s(s_) = \sigma_1(s_) - s_ \quad \text \quad s_ > 0 \\ pts_n &= 0 \quad \text \quad s_ = 0 \\ pts(0) &= \text \end If the condition is added, then the terms after 0 are all 0, and all aliquot sequences would be infinite, and we can conjecture that all aliquot sequences are convergent, the limit of these sequences are usually 0 or 6. For example, the aliquot sequence of 10 is because: \begin \sigma_1(10) -10 &= 5 + 2 + 1 = 8, \\ pt\sigma_1(8) - 8 &= 4 + 2 + 1 = 7, \\ pt\sigma_1(7) - 7 &= 1, \\ pt\sigma_1(1) - 1 &= 0. ...

Mathematics
Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, Mathematical theory, theories and theorems that are developed and Mathematical proof, proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study of shapes and spaces that contain them), Mathematical analysis, analysis (the study of continuous changes), and set theory (presently used as a foundation for all mathematics). Mathematics involves the description and manipulation of mathematical object, abstract objects that consist of either abstraction (mathematics), abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicspurely abstract entities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. Mathematics uses pure reason to proof (mathematics), prove properties of objects, a ''proof'' consisting of a succession of applications of in ...

124 (number)
124 (one hundred ndtwenty-four) is the natural number following 123 and preceding 125. In mathematics 124 is an untouchable number, meaning that it is not the sum of proper divisors of any positive number. It is a stella octangula number, the number of spheres packed in the shape of a stellated octahedron. It is also an icosahedral number. There are 124 different polygons of length 12 formed by edges of the integer lattice In mathematics, the -dimensional integer lattice (or cubic lattice), denoted , is the lattice (group), lattice in the Euclidean space whose lattice points are tuple, -tuples of integers. The two-dimensional integer lattice is also called the s ..., counting two polygons as the same only when one is a translated copy of the other. 124 is a perfectly partitioned number, meaning that it divides the number of partitions of 124. It is the first number to do so after 1, 2, and 3. References Integers {{Num-stub ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Conjecture
In mathematics, a conjecture is a conclusion or a proposition that is proffered on a tentative basis without proof. Some conjectures, such as the Riemann hypothesis or Fermat's conjecture (now a theorem, proven in 1995 by Andrew Wiles), have shaped much of mathematical history as new areas of mathematics are developed in order to prove them. Resolution of conjectures Proof Formal mathematics is based on ''provable'' truth. In mathematics, any number of cases supporting a universally quantified conjecture, no matter how large, is insufficient for establishing the conjecture's veracity, since a single counterexample could immediately bring down the conjecture. Mathematical journals sometimes publish the minor results of research teams having extended the search for a counterexample farther than previously done. For instance, the Collatz conjecture, which concerns whether or not certain sequences of integers terminate, has been tested for all integers up to 1.2 × 101 ...

290 (number)
290 (two hundred ndninety) is the natural number following 289 and preceding 291. In mathematics The product of three primes, 290 is a sphenic number, and the sum of four consecutive primes (67 + 71 + 73 + 79). The sum of the squares of the divisors of 17 is 290. Not only is it a nontotient In number theory, a nontotient is a positive integer ''n'' which is not a totient number: it is not in the range of Euler's totient function φ, that is, the equation φ(''x'') = ''n'' has no solution ''x''. In other words, ''n'' is a nontotie ... and a noncototient, it is also an untouchable number. 290 is the 16th member of the Mian–Chowla sequence; it can not be obtained as the sum of any two previous terms in the sequence.

288 (number)
288 (two hundred ndeighty-eight) is the natural number following 287 and preceding 289. Because 288 = 2 · 12 · 12, it may also be called "two gross" or "two dozen dozen". In mathematics Factorization properties Because its prime factorization 288 = 2^5\cdot 3^2 contains only the first two prime numbers 2 and 3, 288 is a 3-smooth number. This factorization also makes it a highly powerful number, a number with a record-setting value of the product of the exponents in its factorization. Among the highly abundant numbers, numbers with record-setting sums of divisors, it is one of only 13 such numbers with an odd divisor sum. Both 288 and are powerful numbers, numbers in which all exponents of the prime factorization are larger than one. This property is closely connected to being highly abundant with an odd divisor sum: all sufficiently large highly abundant numbers have an odd prime factor with exponent one, causing their divisor sum to be even. 288 and 289 form only the ...

276 (number)
276 (two hundred ndseventy-six) is the natural number following 275 and preceding 277. In mathematics 276 is the sum of 3 consecutive fifth powers (276 = 15 + 25 + 35).

The maximal set of such lines, derived from the Leech lattice, provides the highest dimension in which the "Gerzon bound" of \binom is known to be attained; its symmetry group is the third Conway group, Co3. 276 is the smallest number for which it is not known if the corresponding aliquot sequence either terminates or ends in a repeating cyc ...

216 (number)
216 (two hundred ndsixteen) is the natural number following 215 and preceding 217. It is a cube, and is often called Plato's number, although it is not certain that this is the number intended by Plato. In mathematics 216 is the cube of 6, and the sum of three cubes:216=6^3=3^3+4^3+5^3. It is the smallest cube that can be represented as a sum of three positive cubes, making it the first nontrivial example for Euler's sum of powers conjecture. It is, moreover, the smallest number that can be represented as a sum of any number of distinct positive cubes in more than one way. It is a highly powerful number: the product 3\times 3 of the exponents in its prime factorization 216 = 2^3\times 3^3 is larger than the product of exponents of any smaller number. Because there is no way to express it as the sum of the proper divisors of any other integer, it is an untouchable number. Although it is not a semiprime, the three closest numbers on either side of it are, making it the ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
