Mathematical notation

Sequences

The documentation provided here uses a form of sequence notation:

$(\boldsymbol{a}_i)_{i=0}^{n-1}$ ,

which corresponds to the sequence of $n$ elements $\boldsymbol{a}_0, \boldsymbol{a}_1, \cdots, \boldsymbol{a}_{n-1}$. When no ambiguity is present, we will use the abbreviation:

$(\boldsymbol{a})_n = (\boldsymbol{a}_i)_{i=0}^{n-1}$ .
