Target entity: Legendre’s formula for valuations of factorials
Context triple: [Adrien-Marie Legendre, knownFor, Legendre’s formula for valuations of factorials]
  • A. Hardy–Ramanujan asymptotic formula
    The Hardy–Ramanujan asymptotic formula is a landmark result in number theory that gives an approximate expression for the partition function p(n), describing how the number of integer partitions of n grows rapidly with n.
  • B. Gauss’s lemma in number theory
    Gauss’s lemma in number theory is a result that relates the Legendre symbol to the number of sign changes in a certain sequence of multiples, providing a practical criterion for determining quadratic residues modulo an odd prime.
  • C. Baker theorem on linear forms in logarithms
    The Baker theorem on linear forms in logarithms is a fundamental result in transcendental number theory that provides explicit lower bounds for nonzero linear combinations of logarithms of algebraic numbers, with powerful applications to Diophantine equations and Diophantine approximation.
  • D. Sylvester’s theorem on partitions
    Sylvester’s theorem on partitions is a result in number theory that provides a systematic way to count integer partitions subject to certain congruence or restriction conditions, forming part of the foundational work in partition theory.
  • E. Dirichlet hyperbola method
    The Dirichlet hyperbola method is a technique in analytic number theory used to estimate sums of arithmetic functions by splitting double sums along a hyperbola to obtain asymptotic formulas.
  • F. None of above. chosen
  • G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
