Hyperoperation

In mathematics, the hyperoperation sequence is an infinite sequence of arithmetic operations (called hyperoperations in this context) that starts with a unary operation (the successor function with n = 0). The sequence continues with the binary operations of addition (n = 1), multiplication (n = 2), and exponentiation (n = 3). After that, the sequence proceeds with further binary operations extending beyond exponentiation, using right-associativity. For the operations beyond exponentiation, the nth member of this sequence is named by Reuben Goodstein after the Greek prefix of n suffixed with -ation (such as tetration (n = 4), pentation (n = 5), hexation (n = 6), etc.) and can be written as using n − 2 arrows in Knuth's up-arrow notation.Each hyperoperation may be understood recursively in terms of the previous one by: It may also be defined according to the recursion rule part of the definition, as in Knuth's up-arrow version of the Ackermann function: This can be used to easily show numbers much larger than those which scientific notation can, such as Skewes's number and googolplexplex (e.g. is much larger than Skewes's number and googolplexplex), but there are some numbers which even they cannot easily show, such as Graham's number and TREE(3). This recursion rule is common to many variants of hyperoperations. (Wikipedia).

The Hyper Operations Part 1

This is my submission for 3Blue1Brown's Summer of Math Exposition. A while back, I experimented with creating an operation before addition, and I've wanted to make a video (2 videos) taking others on the same journey that I took. 3B1B's contest finally motivated me to make this Music: (pr

Complexity and hyperoperations | Data Structures Math Foundations 174

We introduce the idea of the complexity of a natural number: a measure of how hard it is to actually write down an arithmetical expression that evaluates to that number. This notion does depend on a prior choice of arithmetical symbols that we decide upon, but the general features are surp

Hyperoperations and even bigger numbers | Data structures in Mathematics Math Foundations 179

A powerful approach to exploring big number arithmetic is to extend the notion of arithmetical operation. By considering hyperoperations starting with +,x,^ and then triangle, square etc we can ramp up arithmetic considerably. We can in fact inductively define an operation *_k for any natu

Arithmetical expressions as natural numbers | Data structures in Mathematics Math Foundations 194

Primitive natural numbers and Hindu Arabic numerals can be pinned down very concretely and precisely. But what about numbers expressed via more elaborate arithmetical expressions, perhaps involving towers of exponents, or hyperoperations? Is there a consistent and logical proper way of set

👉 Learn about dilations. Dilation is the transformation of a shape by a scale factor to produce an image that is similar to the original shape but is different in size from the original shape. A dilation that creates a larger image is called an enlargement or a stretch while a dilation tha
