Big O notation (with a capital letter O -- originally an omicron -- not a zero), also called Landau's symbol, is a symbolism used in complexity theory, computer science, and mathematics to describe the asymptotic behavior of functions. It indicates how fast a function grows or declines.
Landau's symbol comes from the name of the German number theorist Edmund Landau who invented the notation. The letter O is used because the rate of growth of a function is also called its order.
For example, when analyzing some algorithm, one might find that the time (or the number of steps) it takes to complete a problem of size n is given by T(n) = 4 n2 − 2 n + 2. If we ignore constants (which makes sense because those depend on the particular hardware the program is run on) and slower growing terms, we could say "T(n) grows at the order of n2" and write:T(n) = O(n2).
In mathematics, it is often important to get a handle on the error term of an approximation. For instance, one may write
to express the fact that the error is smaller in absolute value than some constant times x3 if x is close enough to 0.
For the formal definition, suppose f(x) and g(x) are two functions defined on some subset of the real numbers. We write
if and only if there exist constants N and C such that
- f(x) = O(g(x)) as x → ∞
Intuitively, this means that f does not grow faster than g.
- |f(x)| ≤ C |g(x)| for all x > N.
If a is some real number, we write
if and only if there exist constants d > 0 and C such that
- f(x) = O(g(x)) for x -> a
- |f(x)| ≤ C |g(x)| for all x with |x-a| < d.
The first definition is the only one used in computer science (where typically only positive functions with a natural number n as argument are considered; the absolute values can then be ignored), while both usages appear in mathematics.
Here is a list of classes of functions that are commonly encountered when analyzing algorithms. The slower growing functions are listed first. c is some arbitrary constant.
notation name O(1) constant O(log(n)) logarithmic O((log(n))c) polylogarithmic O(n) linear O(n log(n)) sometimes called "linearithmic" O(n2) quadratic O(nc) polynomial, sometimes "geometric" O(cn) exponential O(n!) factorial Note that O(nc) and O(cn) are very different. The latter grows much, much faster, no matter how big the constant c is. A function that grows faster than any power of n is called superpolynomial. One that grows slower than an exponential function of the form cn is called subexponential. An algorithm can require time that is both superpolynomial and subexponential; examples of this include the fastest algorithms known for integer factorization.
Note, too, that O(log n) is exactly the same as O(log(nc)). The logarithms differ only by a constant factor, (since log(nc)=c log(n)) and thus the big O notation ignores that. Similarly, logs with different constant bases are equivalent.
The above list is useful because of the following fact: if a function f(n) is a sum of functions, one of which grows faster than the others, then the faster growing one determines the order of f(n). Example: If f(n) = 10 log(n) + 5 (log(n))3 + 7 n + 3 n2 + 6 n3, then f(n) = O(n3). One caveat here: the number of summands has to be constant and may not depend on n.
This notation can also be used with multiple variables and with other expressions on the right side of the equal sign. The notation:
represents the statement:
- f(n,m) = n2 + m3 + O(n+m)
Obviously, this notation is abusing the equality symbol, since it violates the axiom of equality: "things equal to the same thing are equal to each other". To be more formally correct, some people (mostly mathematicians, as opposed to computer scientists) prefer to define O(g(x)) as a set-valued function, whose value is all functions that do not grow faster then g(x), and use set membership notation to indicate that a specific function is a member of the set thus defined. Both forms are in common use, but the sloppier equality notation is more common at present.
- ∃C ∃N ∀n,m>N : f(n,m)≤n2+m3+C(n+m)
Another point of sloppiness is that the parameter whose asymptotic behaviour is being examined is not clear. A statement such as f(x,y) = O(g(x,y)) requires some additional explanation to make clear what is meant. Still, this problem is rare in practice.
Related notations
In addition to the big O notations, another Landau symbol is used in mathematics: the little o. Informally, f(x) = o(g(x)) means that f grows much slower than g and is insignificant in comparison.
Formally, we write f(x) = o(g(x)) (for x -> ∞) if and only if for every C>0 there exists a real number N such that for all x > N we have |f(x)| < C |g(x)|; if g(x) ≠ 0, this is equivalent to limx→∞ f(x)/g(x) = 0.
Also, if a is some real number, we write f(x) = o(g(x)) for x -> a if and only if for every C>0 there exists a positive real number d such that for all x with |x - a| < d we have |f(x)| < C |g(x)|; if g(x) ≠ 0, this is equivalent to limx -> a f(x)/g(x) = 0.
Big O is the most commonly used of five notations for comparing functions:
Notation Definition Analogy f(n) = O(g(n)) see above ≤ f(n) = o(g(n)) see above < f(n) = Ω(g(n)) g(n)=O(f(n)) ≥ f(n) = ω(g(n)) g(n)=o(f(n)) > f(n) = Θ(g(n)) f(n)=O(g(n)) and g(n)=O(f(n)) = The notations Θ and Ω are often used in computer science; the lower-case o is common in mathematics but rare in computer science. The lower-case ω is rarely used.
A common error is to confuse these by using O when Θ is meant. For example, one might say "heapsort is O(n log n) in average case" when the intended meaning was "heapsort is Θ(n log n) in average case". Both statements are true, but the latter is a stronger claim.
Another notation sometimes used in computer science is Õ (read Soft-O).
f(n) = Õ(g(n)) is shorthand for f(n) = O(g(n) logkn) for some k. Essentially, it is Big-O, ignoring logarithmic factors.The notations described here are used for approximating formulas (e.g. those in the sum article), for analysis of algorithms (e.g. those in the heapsort article), and for the definitions of terms in complexity theory (e.g. polynomial time).

Omega (Ω ω) (literally, big O) is the 24th and last letter of the Greek alphabet. In the Greek numeric system it had a value of 800.
Omega is used to denote an end to something, the opposite being Alpha, beginning. For example, "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End." (Revelation 22:13, NIV)
Omega has been used as the name for a wide variety of other things, for example:
The upper-case letter Ω is used as a symbol for:
- The name of the free 16-Bit (Unicode) version of the typesetting system TeX ([1])
- a fictional character from the television program Doctor Who.
- a Roguelike game ([1])
- a fatty acid: Omega-3_fatty_acid
The lower-case letter ω is used as a symbol for:
- Ohm - S-I unit of electrical resistance.
- In computer science, in notation related to Big O notation, also Chaitin's constant.
- Codex Athous Dionysii, an 8th/9th century uncial Greek manuscript of the Gospels on Mount Athos.
- Omega Point, a theory about computing at the end of the universe.

Omega was the first truly global radionavigation system for aircraft operated by the United States of America.Omega was initailly planned in 1968, and was operational in 1971.
There were eight Omega stations Norway (A), Liberia (B), Hawaii (C), North Dakota (D), La Réunion (E), Argentina (F), Australia (G) and Japan (H). The station in Australia was originally intended for New Zealand but was moved to Australia after protests from anti-war protestors.
Each Omega station transmitted a very low frequency signal which consisted of a pattern of four tones unique to the station that was repeated every ten seconds. Because of this and radionavigation principles, an accurate fix of the receiver's position could be calculated.
Due to the success of the Global Positioning System the use of Omega declined during the 1990s, to a point where the cost of operating Omega could no longer be justified. Omega was permanently terminated on September 30, 1997 and all stations ceased operation.
