Convergence (math)

In mathematics, convergence is a meta-concept that generally expresses the approximation of an infinite, ordered structure of objects to a target object. In the various mathematical disciplines, specific concepts of convergence exist as expressions of this abstract idea:

• Convergence of a sequence of numbers, see limit value (sequence)
• Convergence of a function, see limit value (function)
• Convergence of function sequences , see function sequence #convergence terms
• Convergence of quantity filters, see Filter Convergence
• Convergence made to measure , in measure theory
• Convergence in probability , stochastic convergence, one of the limit value behavior of random variables in stochastics
• Almost certain convergence , one of the limit value behavior of random variables in stochastics
• Convergence in distribution , one of the limit behavior of random variables in stochastics
• Convergence in the p-th mean , one of the limit value behavior of random variables in stochastics
• Convergent network , the generalization of the convergence of a sequence on topological networks
• Convergence (computational model) , a stability criterion for numerical simulations
