2. Farey sequence - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farey_sequence

   In mathematics, the Farey sequence of order n is the sequence of completely reduced fractions, either between 0 and 1, or without this restriction, [ a] which when in lowest terms have denominators less than or equal to n, arranged in order of increasing size. With the restricted definition, each Farey sequence starts with the value 0, denoted ...

3. Geometric progression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_progression

   For example, the sequence 2, 6, 18, 54, ... is a geometric progression with common ratio 3. Similarly 10, 5, 2.5, 1.25, ... is a geometric sequence with common ratio 1/2. Examples of a geometric sequence are powers r k of a fixed non-zero number r, such as 2 k and 3 k. The general form of a geometric sequence is

4. Geometric series - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_series

   The area of the second biggest overlapped (green) triangle is bh/2 = (2r 1/2)(r 1/2)/2 = r, which is the value of the second term of the geometric series. Each progressively smaller triangle has its base and height scaled down by another factor of r 1/2 , resulting in a sequence of triangle areas 1, r , r 2 , r 3 , ... which is equal to the ...

5. Kelly criterion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelly_criterion

   Example of the optimal Kelly betting fraction, versus expected return of other fractional bets. In probability theory, the Kelly criterion (or Kelly strategy or Kelly bet) is a formula for sizing a sequence of bets by maximizing the long-term expected value of the logarithm of wealth, which is equivalent to maximizing the long-term expected geometric growth rate.

6. Rule of twelfths - Wikipedia

   Then in the second period by 2/12, in the third by 3/12, in the fourth by 3/12, fifth by 2/12 and at the end of the sixth period reaches its maximum with an increase of 1/12. The steps are 1:2:3:3:2:1 giving a total change of 12/12. Over the next six intervals the quantity reduces in a similar manner by 1, 2, 3, 3, 2, 1 twelfths.

7. Harmonic progression (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_progression...

   In mathematics, a harmonic progression (or harmonic sequence) is a progression formed by taking the reciprocals of an arithmetic progression . Equivalently, a sequence is a harmonic progression when each term is the harmonic mean of the neighboring terms. As a third equivalent characterization, it is an infinite sequence of the form.
