3Newton's method — In numerical analysis, Newton s method (also known as the Newton–Raphson method), named after Isaac Newton and Joseph Raphson, is a method for finding successively better approximations to the roots (or zeroes) of a real valued function. The… …
4Ising model — The Ising model, named after the physicist Ernst Ising, is a mathematical model in statistical mechanics. It has since been used to model diverse phenomena in which bits of information, interacting in pairs, produce collectiveeffects.Definition… …
5Continued fraction — Finite continued fraction, where a0 is an integer, any other ai are positive integers, and n is a non negative integer. In mathematics, a continued fraction is an expression obtained through an iterative process of representing a number as the… …

7Irrational number — In mathematics, an irrational number is any real number that is not a rational number that is, it is a number which cannot be expressed as a fraction m / n , where m and n are integers, with n non zero. Informally, this means numbers that cannot… …
8Heegner number — In number theory, a Heegner number is a (square free) positive integer d such that the imaginary quadratic fieldmathbf{Q}(sqrt{ d}) has class number 1. Equivalently, its ring of integers has a unique factorization.The determination of such… …
