Centered Octagonal Number
A centered octagonal number is a centered figurate number that represents an octagon with a dot in the center and all other dots surrounding the center dot in successive octagonal layers.. The centered octagonal numbers are the same as the odd square numbers. Thus, the ''n''th odd square number and ''t''th centered octagonal number is given by the formula :O_n=(2n-1)^2 = 4n^2-4n+1 , (2t+1)^2=4t^2+4t+1. The first few centered octagonal numbers are : 1, 9, 25, 49, 81, 121, 169, 225, 289, 361, 441, 529, 625, 729, 841, 961, 1089, 1225 Calculating Ramanujan's tau function on a centered octagonal number yields an odd number, whereas for any other number the function yields an even number. O_n is the number of 2x2 matrices with elements from 0 to n that their determinant In mathematics, the determinant is a scalar value that is a function of the entries of a square matrix. It characterizes some properties of the matrix and the linear map represented by the matrix. In ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

81 (number)
81 (eighty-one) is the natural number following 80 and preceding 82. In mathematics 81 is: * the square of 9 and the fourth power of 3. * a perfect totient number like all powers of three. * a heptagonal number. * a centered octagonal number. * a tribonacci number. * an open meandric number. * the ninth member of the Mian-Chowla sequence. * a palindromic number in bases 8 (1218) and 26 (3326). * a Harshad number in bases 2, 3, 4, 7, 9, 10 and 13. * one of three non-trivial numbers (the other two are 1458 and 1729) which, when its digits (in decimal) are added together, produces a sum which, when multiplied by its reversed self, yields the original number: : 8 + 1 = 9 : 9 × 9 = 81 (although this case is somewhat degenerate, as the sum has only a single digit). The inverse of 81 is 0. recurring, missing only the digit "8" from the complete set of digits. This is an example of the general rule that, in base ''b'', :\frac = 0.\overline, omitting only the digit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Permanent (mathematics)
In linear algebra, the permanent of a square matrix is a function of the matrix similar to the determinant. The permanent, as well as the determinant, is a polynomial in the entries of the matrix. Both are special cases of a more general function of a matrix called the immanant. Definition The permanent of an matrix is defined as \operatorname(A)=\sum_\prod_^n a_. The sum here extends over all elements σ of the symmetric group ''S''''n''; i.e. over all permutations of the numbers 1, 2, ..., ''n''. For example, \operatorname\begina&b \\ c&d\end=ad+bc, and \operatorname\begina&b&c \\ d&e&f \\ g&h&i \end=aei + bfg + cdh + ceg + bdi + afh. The definition of the permanent of ''A'' differs from that of the determinant of ''A'' in that the signatures of the permutations are not taken into account. The permanent of a matrix A is denoted per ''A'', perm ''A'', or Per ''A'', sometimes with parentheses around the argument. Minc uses Per(''A'') for the permanent of rectangular m ...

Determinant
In mathematics, the determinant is a scalar value that is a function of the entries of a square matrix. It characterizes some properties of the matrix and the linear map represented by the matrix. In particular, the determinant is nonzero if and only if the matrix is invertible and the linear map represented by the matrix is an isomorphism. The determinant of a product of matrices is the product of their determinants (the preceding property is a corollary of this one). The determinant of a matrix is denoted , , or . The determinant of a matrix is :\begin a & b\\c & d \end=ad-bc, and the determinant of a matrix is : \begin a & b & c \\ d & e & f \\ g & h & i \end= aei + bfg + cdh - ceg - bdi - afh. The determinant of a matrix can be defined in several equivalent ways. Leibniz formula expresses the determinant as a sum of signed products of matrix entries such that each summand is the product of different entries, and the number of these summands is n!, the factorial o ...

Ramanujan's Tau Function
The Ramanujan tau function, studied by , is the function \tau : \mathbb \rarr\mathbb defined by the following identity: :\sum_\tau(n)q^n=q\prod_\left(1-q^n\right)^ = q\phi(q)^ = \eta(z)^=\Delta(z), where with , \phi is the Euler function, is the Dedekind eta function, and the function is a holomorphic cusp form of weight 12 and level 1, known as the discriminant modular form (some authors, notably Apostol, write \Delta/(2\pi)^ instead of \Delta). It appears in connection to an "error term" involved in counting the number of ways of expressing an integer as a sum of 24 squares. A formula due to Ian G. Macdonald Ian Grant Macdonald (born 11 October 1928 in London, England) is a British mathematician known for his contributions to symmetric functions, special functions, Lie algebra theory and other aspects of algebra, algebraic combinatorics, and combi ... was given in .

1089 (number)
1089 is the integer after 1088 and before 1090. It is a square number (33 squared), a nonagonal number, a 32-gonal number, a 364-gonal number, and a centered octagonal number. 1089 is the first reverse-divisible number. The next is 2178 , and they are the only four-digit numbers that divide their reverse. In magic 1089 is widely used in magic tricks because it can be "produced" from any two three-digit numbers. This allows it to be used as the basis for a Magician's Choice. For instance, one variation of the book test starts by having the spectator choose any two suitable numbers and then apply some basic maths to produce a single four-digit number. That number is always 1089. The spectator is then asked to turn to page 108 of a book and read the 9th word, which the magician has memorized. To the audience it looks like the number is random, but through manipulation, the result is always the same. In base 10, the following steps always yield 1089: # Take any three-digit numb ...

169 (number)
169 (one hundred ndsixty-nine) is the natural number following 168 and preceding 170. In mathematics 169 is an odd number, a composite number, and a deficient number. 169 is a square number: 13 × 13 = 169, and if each number is reversed the equation is still true: 31 × 31 = 961. 144 shares this property: 12 × 12 = 144, 21 × 21 = 441. 169 is one of the few squares to also be a centered hexagonal number. Like all odd squares, it is a centered octagonal number. 169 is an odd-indexed Pell number, thus it is also a Markov number, appearing in the solutions (2, 169, 985), (2, 29, 169), (29, 169, 14701), etc. 169 is the sum of seven consecutive primes: 13 + 17 + 19 + 23 + 29 + 31 + 37. 169 is a difference in consecutive cubes, equaling 8^3-7^3.

121 (number)
121 (one hundred ndtwenty-one) is the natural number following 120 and preceding 122. In mathematics ''One hundred ndtwenty-one'' is * a square (11 times 11) * the sum of the powers of 3 from 0 to 4, so a repunit in ternary. Furthermore, 121 is the only square of the form 1 + p + p^2 + p^3 + p^4, where ''p'' is prime (3, in this case). * the sum of three consecutive prime numbers (37 + 41 + 43). * As 5! + 1 = 121, it provides a solution to Brocard's problem. There are only two other squares known to be of the form n! + 1. Another example of 121 being one of the few numbers supporting a conjecture is that Fermat conjectured that 4 and 121 are the only perfect squares of the form x^-4 (with being 2 and 5, respectively). * It is also a star number, a centered tetrahedral number, and a centered octagonal number. * In decimal, it is a Smith number since its digits add up to the same value as its factorization (which uses the same digits) and as a consequence of that it is a Friedm ...

49 (number)
49 (forty-nine) is the natural number following 48 and preceding 50. In mathematics Forty-nine is the square of seven. It appears in the Padovan sequence, preceded by the terms 21, 28, 37 (it is the sum of the first two of these). Along with the number that immediately derives from it, 77, the only number under 100 not having its home prime known (). Decimal representation The sum of the digits of the square of 49 (2401) is the square root of 49. 49 is the first square where the digits are squares. In this case, 4 and 9 are squares. Reciprocal The fraction is a repeating decimal with a period of 42: : = (42 digits repeat) There are 42 (note that this number is the period) positive integers that are less than 49 and coprime to 49. Multiplying 020408163265306122448979591836734693877551 by each of these integers results in a cyclic permutation of the original number: *020408163265306122448979591836734693877551 × 2 = 040816326530612244897959183673469387755102 * ...

Centered Number
The centered polygonal numbers are a class of series of figurate numbers, each formed by a central dot, surrounded by polygonal layers of dots with a constant number of sides. Each side of a polygonal layer contains one more dot than each side in the previous layer; so starting from the second polygonal layer, each layer of a centered ''k''-gonal number contains ''k'' more dots than the previous layer. Examples Each centered ''k''-gonal number in the series is ''k'' times the previous triangular number, plus 1. This can be formalized by the expression \frac +1, where ''n'' is the series rank, starting with 0 for the initial 1. For example, each centered square number in the series is four times the previous triangular number, plus 1. This can be formalized by the expression \frac +1. These series consist of the *centered triangular numbers 1, 4, 10, 19, 31, 46, 64, 85, 109, 136, 166, 199, ... (), *centered square numbers 1, 5, 13, 25, 41, 61, 85, 113, 145, 181, 221, 265, ... ...

9 (number)
9 (nine) is the natural number following and preceding . Evolution of the Arabic digit In the beginning, various Indians wrote a digit 9 similar in shape to the modern closing question mark without the bottom dot. The Kshatrapa, Andhra and Gupta started curving the bottom vertical line coming up with a -look-alike. The Nagari continued the bottom stroke to make a circle and enclose the 3-look-alike, in much the same way that the sign @ encircles a lowercase ''a''. As time went on, the enclosing circle became bigger and its line continued beyond the circle downwards, as the 3-look-alike became smaller. Soon, all that was left of the 3-look-alike was a squiggle. The Arabs simply connected that squiggle to the downward stroke at the middle and subsequent European change was purely cosmetic. While the shape of the glyph for the digit 9 has an ascender in most modern typefaces, in typefaces with text figures the character usually has a descender, as, for example, in . The mo ...
