The theory of p -adic numbers is fundamentally based on the two following lemmas: Every nonzero rational number can be written where v, m, and n are integers and neither m nor n is divisible by p. The exponent v is uniquely determined by the rational number and is called its p-adic valuation (this definition is a particular case of a more general definition, given below). The proof of the ...
L'Hôpital's rule (/ ˌloʊpiːˈtɑːl /, loh-pee-TAHL), also known as Bernoulli's rule, is a mathematical theorem that allows evaluating limits of indeterminate forms using derivatives. Application (or repeated application) of the rule often converts an indeterminate form to an expression that can be easily evaluated by substitution. The rule is named after the 17th-century French ...

Fermat's theorem on sums of two squaresIn additive number theory, Fermat 's theorem on sums of two squares states that an odd prime p can be expressed as: with x and y integers, if and only if The prime numbers for which this is true are called Pythagorean primes. For example, the primes 5, 13, 17, 29, 37 and 41 are all congruent to 1 modulo 4, and they can be expressed as sums of two squares ...

On-load tap changer (OLTC), also known as On-circuit tap changer (OCTC), is a tap changer in applications where a supply interruption during a tap change is unacceptable, the transformer is often fitted with a more expensive and complex on-load tap changing mechanism. On-load tap changers may be generally classified as either mechanical, electronically assisted, or fully electronic. These ...
