  2. e (mathematical constant) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E_(mathematical_constant)

    The number e is a mathematical constant approximately equal to 2.71828 that can be characterized in many ways. It is the base of the natural logarithm function. It is the limit of as n tends to infinity, an expression that arises in the computation of compound interest. It is the value at 1 of the (natural) exponential function, commonly ...

    A logistic function or logistic curve is a common S-shaped curve ( sigmoid curve) with the equation. where. , the value of the function's midpoint; , the supremum of the values of the function; , the logistic growth rate or steepness of the curve. [1] Standard logistic function where. For values of in the domain of real numbers from to , the S ...

  4. Half-life - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-life

    Half-life (symbol t½) is the time required for a quantity (of substance) to reduce to half of its initial value. The term is commonly used in nuclear physics to describe how quickly unstable atoms undergo radioactive decay or how long stable atoms survive. The term is also used more generally to characterize any type of exponential (or, rarely ...

  5. Double exponential function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_exponential_function

    Double exponential function. A double exponential function is a constant raised to the power of an exponential function. The general formula is (where a >1 and b >1), which grows much more quickly than an exponential function. For example, if a = b = 10: f (x) = 10 10x. f (0) = 10.

  6. Geometric progression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_progression

    greater than 1, there will be exponential growth towards positive or negative infinity (depending on the sign of the initial term). 1, the progression is a constant sequence. between −1 and 1 but not zero, there will be exponential decay towards zero (→ 0). −1, the absolute value of each term in the sequence is constant and terms ...

  7. Talk:Exponential growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Exponential_growth

    Actually the formula mentioned above is the compound interest formula, which is close to (but not the same as) exponential growth. Exponential growth is the equivalent of continuous compounding, in which the compounding period is set infinitely small (divide by a number that "approaches" infinity and multiply by a number that "approaches ...

  8. Population growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_growth

    Population growth is the increase in the number of people in a population or dispersed group. Actual global human population growth amounts to around 83 million annually, or 1.1% per year. [2] The global population has grown from 1 billion in 1800 to 7.9 billion in 2020. [3] The UN projected population to keep growing, and estimates have put ...

  9. Logarithmic growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_growth

    Logarithmic growth is the inverse of exponential growth and is very slow. A familiar example of logarithmic growth is a number, N, in positional notation, which grows as log b (N), where b is the base of the number system used, e.g. 10 for decimal arithmetic. In more advanced mathematics, the partial sums of the harmonic series
