In number theory , functions of positive integer s which respect products are important and are called completely multiplicative functions or totally multiplicative functions . Especially in number theory, a weaker condition is also important, respecting only products of coprime numbers, and such functions are called multiplicative function s. Outside of number theory, the term multiplicative function is often taken to be synonymous with completely multiplicative function as defined in this article. Definition A completely multiplicative function or totally multiplicative function is an arithmetic function that is, a function whose Domain mathematics domain is the natural number s , such that f 1 1 and f ab f a f b holds for all positive integers a and b . Without the requirement that f 1 1, one could still have f 1 0, but then f a 0 for all positive integers a , so this is not a very strong restriction. Examples The easiest example of a multiplicative function is a monomial For any particular positive integer n , define f a a sup n sup . Properties A completely multiplicative function is completely determined by its values at the prime numbers, a consequence of the fundamental theorem of arithmetic . Thus, if n is a product of powers of distinct primes, say n p sup a sup q sup b sup ..., then f n f p sup a sup f q sup b sup ...

In mathematics, a multiplicative cascade ref Meakin P, PRA vol 36 No 6 1987 Diffusion limited aggregation on multifractal lattices ref ref http uk.arxiv.org abs 0803.3212 Cristano G.

To create these distributions there are a few steps to take. Firstly, we must create a lattice of points which will be our underlying probability density field. Then we will populate this lattice with randomly placed points, insisting that the probability that the points be placed are proportional to the cell probability. The fractal is constructed as follows The space is split into four equal parts. Each part is then assigned a probability from the set math lbrace p 1,p 2,p 3,p 4 rbrace math without replacement, where math p i in 0,1 math . Each subspace is then divided again and assigned probabilities randomly from the same set and this is continued to the N th level. At the N th level the probability of a cell being occupied is the product of the cell s p sub i sub and its parents and ancestors up to level 1 i.e. all the cells above it. In constructing this model down to level 8 we produce a 4 sup 8 sup array of cells each with its own probability. To then place particle in the space we invoke a Monte Carlo method Monte Carlo rejection scheme .

If every single less significant bit is included in the update of every bit in the state, such a T function is called triangular . Thanks to their bijectivity no collisions, therefore no entropy loss regardless of the used Boolean function s and regardless of the selection of inputs as long as they all come from one side of the output bit , T functions are now widely used in cryptography to construct block cipher s, stream cipher s, PRNG s and cryptographic hash function hash functions . T functions were first proposed in 2002 by Alexander Klimov A. Klimov and Adi Shamir A. Shamir in their paper A New Class of Invertible Mappings . Ciphers such as TSC 1 , TSC 3 , TSC 4 , ABC stream cipher ABC , Mir 1 and VEST are built with different types of T functions. Because arithmetic operation s such as addition , subtraction and multiplication are also T functions triangular T functions , software efficient word based T functions can be constructed by combining bitwise logic with arithmetic operations.

Multiplicative number theory is a subfield of analytic number theory that deals with prime numbers and with factorization and divisors . The focus is usually on developing approximate formulas for counting these objects in various contexts. The prime number theorem is a key result in this subject. The Mathematics Subject Classification for multiplicative number theory is 11Nxx. Scope Multiplicative number theory deals primarily in asymptotic estimates for arithmetic functions . Historically the subject has been dominated by the prime number theorem , first by attempts to prove it and then by improvements in the error term. The Dirichlet divisor problem that estimates the average order of the divisor function d n and Gauss s circle problem that estimates the average order of the number of representations of a number as a sum of two squares are also classical problems, and again the focus is on improving the error estimates. The distribution of primes numbers among residue classes modulo an integer is an area of active research. Dirichlet s theorem on primes in arithmetic progressions shows that there are an infinity of primes in each co prime residue class, and the prime number theorem for arithmetic progressions shows that the primes are asymptotically equidistributed among the residue classes. The Bombieri Vinogradov theorem gives a more precise measure of how evenly they are distributed ... of multiplicative number theory.

This single digit number is called the multiplicative digital root of n . ref Mathworld title Multiplicative Persistence urlname MultiplicativePersistence ref Multiplicative digital roots obviously depend upon the radix base in which n is written.

nofootnotes date February 2010 In quantum field theory , multiplicative quantum numbers are conserved quantum number s of a special kind. A given quantum number q is said to be additive if in a particle reaction the sum of the q values of the interacting particles is the same before and after the reaction. Most conserved quantum numbers are additive in this sense the electric charge is one example. A multiplicative quantum number q is one for which the corresponding product, rather than the sum, is preserved. Any conserved quantum number is a symmetry of the Hamiltonian quantum theory Hamiltonian of the system see Noether s theorem . Symmetry group mathematics groups which are examples of the abstract group called Z sub 2 sub give rise to multiplicative quantum numbers. This group consists of an operation, P , whose square is the identity, P sup 2 sup 1 . Thus, all symmetries which are mathematically similar to parity physics give rise to multiplicative quantum numbers. In principle, multiplicative quantum numbers can be defined for any Abelian group. An example would be to trade the electric charge , Q , related to the Abelian group U 1 of electromagnetism , for the new quantum number exp 2 i &pi Q . Then this becomes a multiplicative quantum number by virtue of the charge being an additive quantum number. However, this route is usually followed only for discrete subgroups of U 1 , of which Z sub 2 sub finds the widest possible use.

The additive increase multiplicative decrease AIMD algorithm is a feedback control algorithm used in Transmission Control Protocol TCP TCP congestion avoidance algorithm Congestion Avoidance . AIMD combines linear growth of the congestion window with an exponential reduction when a congestion takes place. The approach taken is to increase the transmission rate window size , probing for usable bandwidth, until loss occurs. The policy of additive increase may, for instance, increase the congestion window by 1 MSS Maximum segment size every RTT Round Trip Time until a loss is detected. When loss is detected, the policy is changed to be one of multiplicative decrease, which may, for instance, cut the congestion window in half after loss. The result is a saw tooth behavior that represents the probe for bandwidth. A loss event is generally described to be either a timeout or the event of receiving 3 duplicate ACKs. Also related to TCP congestion control is the slow start mechanism. Other policies or algorithms for fairness in congestion control are additive increase decrease AIAD , multiplicative increase additive decrease MIAD and multiplicative increase decrease MIMD .

Let a 1 and b 1. w a w decrease when loss is detected w w b increase when the window has been fully ACK ed, or w w w b increase by a fraction of MSS when an ACK arrives Idea behind the formula In a series of schemes, different proposals have been made in order to prevent congestion based on different definitions for a and b, aiming for a balance between responsiveness to congestion and utilisation of available capacity.

distinguish Null function Unreferenced date December 2009 In mathematics , an identity function , also called identity map or identity transformation , is a function mathematics function that always returns the same value that was used as its argument. In terms of equation s, the function is given by f x x . Definition Formally, if M is a Set mathematics set , the identity function f on M is defined to be that function with domain mathematics domain and codomain M which satisfies f x x for all elements x in M . In other words, the function assigns to each element x of M the element x of M . The identity function f on M is often denoted by id sub M sub or 1 sub M sub . In terms of set theory , where a function is defined as a particular kind of binary relation , the identity function is given by the identity relation , or diagonal of M . Algebraic property If f M N is any function, then we have f small o small id sub M sub f id sub N sub small o small f where small o small denotes function composition . In particular, id sub M sub is the identity element of the monoid of all functions from M to M . Since the identity element of a monoid is unique , one can alternately define the identity function on M to be this identity element. Such a definition generalizes to the concept of an identity morphism in category theory , where the endomorphism s of M need not be functions. Examples The identity function is a linear map linear operator , when applied to vector space s. The identity function on the positive integer s is a completely multiplicativefunction essentially multiplication by 1 , considered in number theory . In an n dimensional vector space the identity function is represented by the identity matrix I sub n sub , regardless of the Basis linear algebra basis .
