_2phi_1(a,q^(-n);c;q,q)=(a^n(c/a,q)_n)/((a;q)_n), where _2phi_1(a,b;c;q,z) is a q-hypergeometric function.

Bürmann's theorem deals with the expansion of functions in powers of another function. Let phi(z) be a function of z which is analytic in a closed region S, of which a is an ...

Wynn's epsilon-method is a method for numerical evaluation of sums and products that samples a number of additional terms in the series and then tries to extrapolate them by ...

A necessary and sufficient condition for a sequence S_i to converge. The Cauchy criterion is satisfied when, for all epsilon>0, there is a fixed number N such that ...

Let |sum_(n=1)^pa_n|<K, (1) where K is independent of p. Then if f_n>=f_(n+1)>0 and lim_(n->infty)f_n=0, (2) it follows that sum_(n=1)^inftya_nf_n (3) converges.

A version of fractal dimension used in time-series analysis.

Predictability at a time tau in the future is defined by (R(x(t),x(t+tau)))/(H(x(t))), and linear predictability by (L(x(t),x(t+tau)))/(H(x(t))), where R and L are the ...

The study of sampling

Stirling's approximation gives an approximate value for the factorial function n! or the gamma function Gamma(n) for n>>1. The approximation can most simply be derived for n ...
