  2. System of equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_equations

    In mathematics, a set of simultaneous equations, also known as a system of equations or an equation system, is a finite set of equations for which common solutions are sought. An equation system is usually classified in the same manner as single equations, namely as a: System of linear equations, System of nonlinear equations,

  3. List of writing systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_writing_systems

    Writing systems are used to record human language, and may be classified according to certain common features.. The usual name of the script is given first; the name of the languages in which the script is written follows (in brackets), particularly in the case where the language name differs from the script name.

  4. System of linear equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_linear_equations

    The simplest method for solving a system of linear equations is to repeatedly eliminate variables. This method can be described as follows: In the first equation, solve for one of the variables in terms of the others. Substitute this expression into the remaining equations. This yields a system of equations with one fewer equation and unknown.

  5. Consistent and inconsistent equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consistent_and...

    The system + =, + = has exactly one solution: x = 1, y = 2 The nonlinear system + =, + = has the two solutions (x, y) = (1, 0) and (x, y) = (0, 1), while + + =, + + =, + + = has an infinite number of solutions because the third equation is the first equation plus twice the second one and hence contains no independent information; thus any value of z can be chosen and values of x and y can be ...

  6. Multigrid method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multigrid_method

    Originally described in Xu's Ph.D. thesis [9] and later published in Bramble-Pasciak-Xu, [10] the BPX-preconditioner is one of the two major multigrid approaches (the other is the classic multigrid algorithm such as V-cycle) for solving large-scale algebraic systems that arise from the discretization of models in science and engineering ...

  7. Aggregation (linguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aggregation_(linguistics)

    Syntactic aggregation can be much more complex than this. For example, aggregation can embed one of the constituents in the other; e.g., we can aggregate John went to the shop and The shop was closed into the sentence John went to the shop, which was closed.

  8. Language equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_equation

    Language equations with concatenation and Boolean operations were first studied by Parikh, Chandra, Halpern and Meyer [9] who proved that the satisfiability problem for a given equation is undecidable, and that if a system of language equations has a unique solution, then that solution is recursive.

  9. Linear equation over a ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_equation_over_a_ring

    Let R be an effective commutative ring.. There is an algorithm for testing if an element a is a zero divisor: this amounts to solving the linear equation ax = 0.; There is an algorithm for testing if an element a is a unit, and if it is, computing its inverse: this amounts to solving the linear equation ax = 1.
