2. Integer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer

   Integer. The set of integers on a number line. An integer is the number zero ( 0 ), a positive natural number (1, 2, 3, . . .), or the negation of a positive natural number ( −1, −2, −3, . . .). [ 1] The negations or additive inverses of the positive natural numbers are referred to as negative integers. [ 2]

3. Natural number - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_number

   A natural number can be used to express the size of a finite set; more precisely, a cardinal number is a measure for the size of a set, which is even suitable for infinite sets. The numbering of cardinals usually begins at zero, to accommodate the empty set. ∅ {\displaystyle \emptyset }

4. Integer partition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_partition

   In number theory and combinatorics, a partition of a non-negative integer n, also called an integer partition, is a way of writing n as a sum of positive integers. Two sums that differ only in the order of their summands are considered the same partition. (If order matters, the sum becomes a composition .)

5. Lists of mathematics topics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_mathematics_topics

   The branch of mathematics deals with the properties and relationships of numbers, especially positive integers. Number theory is a branch of pure mathematics devoted primarily to the study of the integers and integer-valued functions. German mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss said, "Mathematics is the queen of the sciences—and number theory ...

6. Goldbach's conjecture - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldbach's_conjecture

   This conjecture is known as Lemoine's conjecture and is also called Levy's conjecture. The Goldbach conjecture for practical numbers, a prime-like sequence of integers, was stated by Margenstern in 1984, [ 32] and proved by Melfi in 1996: [ 33] every even number is a sum of two practical numbers.

7. Algebraic number theory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_number_theory

   Algebraic number theory is a branch of number theory that uses the techniques of abstract algebra to study the integers, rational numbers, and their generalizations. Number-theoretic questions are expressed in terms of properties of algebraic objects such as algebraic number fields and their rings of integers, finite fields, and function fields.
