  2. Exponential growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_growth

    Exponential growth is a process that increases quantity over time at an ever-increasing rate. It occurs when the instantaneous rate of change (that is, the derivative) of a quantity with respect to time is proportional to the quantity itself. Described as a function, a quantity undergoing exponential growth is an exponential function of time ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerating_change

    v. t. e. In futures studies and the history of technology, accelerating change is the observed exponential nature of the rate of technological change in recent history, which may suggest faster and more profound change in the future and may or may not be accompanied by equally profound social and cultural change.

  5. Combinatorial explosion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinatorial_explosion

    In mathematics, a combinatorial explosion is the rapid growth of the complexity of a problem due to how the combinatorics of the problem is affected by the input, constraints, and bounds of the problem. Combinatorial explosion is sometimes used to justify the intractability of certain problems. [1] [2] Examples of such problems include certain ...

  6. Hyperbolic growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_growth

    Hyperbolic growth. The reciprocal function, exhibiting hyperbolic growth. When a quantity grows towards a singularity under a finite variation (a "finite-time singularity") it is said to undergo hyperbolic growth. [1] More precisely, the reciprocal function has a hyperbola as a graph, and has a singularity at 0, meaning that the limit as is ...

  8. Crystal growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_growth

    Crystal growth is a major stage of a crystallization process, and consists of the addition of new atoms, ions, or polymer strings into the characteristic arrangement of the crystalline lattice. [1] [2] The growth typically follows an initial stage of either homogeneous or heterogeneous (surface catalyzed) nucleation , unless a "seed" crystal ...
