  2. Truncation error (numerical integration) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncation_error...

    The relation between local and global truncation errors is slightly different from in the simpler setting of one-step methods. For linear multistep methods, an additional concept called zero-stability is needed to explain the relation between local and global truncation errors.

    Because of this, different methods need to be used to solve BVPs. For example, the shooting method (and its variants) or global methods like finite differences, [3] Galerkin methods, [4] or collocation methods are appropriate for that class of problems. The Picard–Lindelöf theorem states that there is a unique solution, provided f is ...

    Examples of Galerkin methods are: the Galerkin method of weighted residuals, the most common method of calculating the global stiffness matrix in the finite element method, [3] [4] the boundary element method for solving integral equations, Krylov subspace methods. [5]

  7. Truncation (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncation_(statistics)

    In statistics, truncation results in values that are limited above or below, resulting in a truncated sample. [1] A random variable y {\displaystyle y} is said to be truncated from below if, for some threshold value c {\displaystyle c} , the exact value of y {\displaystyle y} is known for all cases y > c {\displaystyle y>c} , but unknown for ...

    called the local Artin symbol, the local reciprocity map or the norm residue symbol. [4] [5] Let L⁄K be a Galois extension of global fields and C L stand for the idèle class group of L. The maps θ v for different places v of K can be assembled into a single global symbol map by multiplying the local

    Computing the square root of 2 (which is roughly 1.41421) is a well-posed problem. Many algorithms solve this problem by starting with an initial approximation x 0 to , for instance x 0 = 1.4, and then computing improved guesses x 1, x 2, etc. One such method is the famous Babylonian method, which is given by x k+1 = (x k + 2/x k)/2.
