Bernoulli Polynomial
In mathematics, the Bernoulli polynomials, named after Jacob Bernoulli, combine the Bernoulli numbers and binomial coefficients. They are used for series expansion of functions, and with the Euler–MacLaurin formula. These polynomials occur in the study of many special functions and, in particular, the Riemann zeta function and the Hurwitz zeta function. They are an Appell sequence (i.e. a Sheffer sequence for the ordinary derivative operator). For the Bernoulli polynomials, the number of crossings of the ''x''-axis in the unit interval does not go up with the degree. In the limit of large degree, they approach, when appropriately scaled, the sine and cosine functions. A similar set of polynomials, based on a generating function, is the family of Euler polynomials. Representations The Bernoulli polynomials ''B''''n'' can be defined by a generating function. They also admit a variety of derived representations. Generating functions The generating function for the Be ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Mathematics
Mathematics is an area of knowledge that includes the topics of numbers, formulas and related structures, shapes and the spaces in which they are contained, and quantities and their changes. These topics are represented in modern mathematics with the major subdisciplines of number theory, algebra, geometry, and analysis, respectively. There is no general consensus among mathematicians about a common definition for their academic discipline. Most mathematical activity involves the discovery of properties of abstract objects and the use of pure reason to prove them. These objects consist of either abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicsentities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. A ''proof'' consists of a succession of applications of deductive rules to already established results. These results include previously proved theorems, axioms, andin case of abstraction from naturesome basic properties that are considered true starting points of ...

Euler Number
In mathematics, the Euler numbers are a sequence ''En'' of integers defined by the Taylor series expansion :\frac = \frac = \sum_^\infty \frac \cdot t^n, where \cosh (t) is the hyperbolic cosine function. The Euler numbers are related to a special value of the Euler polynomials, namely: :E_n=2^nE_n(\tfrac 12). The Euler numbers appear in the Taylor series expansions of the secant and hyperbolic secant functions. The latter is the function in the definition. They also occur in combinatorics, specifically when counting the number of alternating permutations of a set with an even number of elements. Examples The odd-indexed Euler numbers are all zero. The even-indexed ones have alternating signs. Some values are: : Some authors re-index the sequence in order to omit the odd-numbered Euler numbers with value zero, or change all signs to positive . This article adheres to the convention adopted above. Explicit formulas In terms of Stirling numbers of the second kind Foll ...

Mercator Series
In mathematics, the Mercator series or Newton–Mercator series is the Taylor series for the natural logarithm: :\ln(1+x)=x-\frac+\frac-\frac+\cdots In summation notation, :\ln(1+x)=\sum_^\infty \frac x^n. The series converges to the natural logarithm (shifted by 1) whenever -1 History The series was discovered independently by and . It was first published by , in his 1668 treatise ''Logarithmotechnia''.Derivation The series can be obtained from |
Forward Difference Operator
A finite difference is a mathematical expression of the form . If a finite difference is divided by , one gets a difference quotient. The approximation of derivatives by finite differences plays a central role in finite difference methods for the numerical solution of differential equations, especially boundary value problems. The difference operator, commonly denoted \Delta is the operator that maps a function to the function \Delta /math> defined by :\Delta x)= f(x+1)-f(x). A difference equation is a functional equation that involves the finite difference operator in the same way as a differential equation involves derivatives. There are many similarities between difference equations and differential equations, specially in the solving methods. Certain recurrence relations can be written as difference equations by replacing iteration notation with finite differences. In numerical analysis, finite differences are widely used for approximating derivatives, and the term "fi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Integral Transform
In mathematics, an integral transform maps a function from its original function space into another function space via integration, where some of the properties of the original function might be more easily characterized and manipulated than in the original function space. The transformed function can generally be mapped back to the original function space using the ''inverse transform''. General form An integral transform is any transform ''T'' of the following form: :(Tf)(u) = \int_^ f(t)\, K(t, u)\, dt The input of this transform is a function ''f'', and the output is another function ''Tf''. An integral transform is a particular kind of mathematical operator. There are numerous useful integral transforms. Each is specified by a choice of the function K of two variables, the kernel function, integral kernel or nucleus of the transform. Some kernels have an associated ''inverse kernel'' K^( u,t ) which (roughly speaking) yields an inverse transform: :f(t) = \int_^ (Tf ...

Integrals
In mathematics, an integral assigns numbers to functions in a way that describes displacement, area, volume, and other concepts that arise by combining infinitesimal data. The process of finding integrals is called integration. Along with differentiation, integration is a fundamental, essential operation of calculus,Integral calculus is a very well established mathematical discipline for which there are many sources. See and , for example. and serves as a tool to solve problems in mathematics and physics involving the area of an arbitrary shape, the length of a curve, and the volume of a solid, among others. The integrals enumerated here are those termed definite integrals, which can be interpreted as the signed area of the region in the plane that is bounded by the graph of a given function between two points in the real line. Conventionally, areas above the horizontal axis of the plane are positive while areas below are negative. Integrals also refer to the concept of an a ...
