  2. Euler's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_formula

    Euler's formula, named after Leonhard Euler, is a mathematical formula in complex analysis that establishes the fundamental relationship between the trigonometric functions and the complex exponential function. Euler's formula states that, for any real number x, one has. where e is the base of the natural logarithm, i is the imaginary unit, and ...

    List of exponential topics. This is a list of exponential topics, by Wikipedia page. See also list of logarithm topics . Accelerating change. Approximating natural exponents (log base e) Artin–Hasse exponential. Bacterial growth. Baker–Campbell–Hausdorff formula. Cell growth.

  5. Exponential field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_field

    In mathematics, an exponential field is a field with a further unary operation that is a homomorphism from the field's additive group to its multiplicative group. This generalizes the usual idea of exponentiation on the real numbers, where the base is a chosen positive real number.

  6. Matrix exponential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_exponential

    The exponential of X, denoted by eX or exp (X), is the n×n matrix given by the power series. where is defined to be the identity matrix with the same dimensions as . [1] The series always converges, so the exponential of X is well-defined. Equivalently, where I is the n×n identity matrix. When X is an n×n diagonal matrix then exp (X) will be ...

  7. Nuclear chain reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_chain_reaction

    A possible nuclear fission chain reaction: 1) A uranium-235 atom absorbs a neutron and fissions into two fission fragments, releasing three new neutrons and a large amount of binding energy. 2) One of those neutrons is absorbed by an atom of uranium-238, and does not continue the reaction. Another neutron leaves the system without being absorbed.

  8. Cell growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_growth

    Cell growth refers to an increase in the total mass of a cell, including both cytoplasmic, nuclear and organelle volume. Cell growth occurs when the overall rate of cellular biosynthesis (production of biomolecules or anabolism) is greater than the overall rate of cellular degradation (the destruction of biomolecules via the proteasome, lysosome or autophagy, or catabolism).

  9. Learning rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_rate

    v. t. e. In machine learning and statistics, the learning rate is a tuning parameter in an optimization algorithm that determines the step size at each iteration while moving toward a minimum of a loss function. [1] Since it influences to what extent newly acquired information overrides old information, it metaphorically represents the speed at ...
