  2. Inverse function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_function

    While the notation f −1 (x) might be misunderstood, [1] (f(x)) −1 certainly denotes the multiplicative inverse of f(x) and has nothing to do with the inverse function of f. [6] The notation might be used for the inverse function to avoid ambiguity with the multiplicative inverse. [7]

  3. Inverse function theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_function_theorem

    The inverse function theorem can also be generalized to differentiable maps between Banach spaces X and Y. [20] Let U be an open neighbourhood of the origin in X and F : U → Y {\displaystyle F:U\to Y\!} a continuously differentiable function, and assume that the Fréchet derivative d F 0 : X → Y {\displaystyle dF_{0}:X\to Y\!} of F at 0 is ...

  4. Multiplicative inverse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicative_inverse

    The reciprocal function: y = 1/x. For every x except 0, y represents its multiplicative inverse. The graph forms a rectangular hyperbola. In mathematics, a multiplicative inverse or reciprocal for a number x, denoted by 1/x or x1, is a number which when multiplied by x yields the multiplicative identity, 1. The multiplicative inverse of a ...

  5. Inverse function rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_function_rule

    [1] Assuming that has an inverse in a neighbourhood of and that its derivative at that point is non-zero, its inverse is guaranteed to be differentiable at and have a derivative given by the above formula. The inverse function rule may also be expressed in Leibniz's notation. As that notation suggests,

  6. Modular multiplicative inverse - Wikipedia

    However, the linear congruence 4x ≡ 6 (mod 10) has two solutions, namely, x = 4 and x = 9. The gcd(4, 10) = 2 and 2 does not divide 5, but does divide 6. Since gcd(3, 10) = 1, the linear congruence 3x ≡ 1 (mod 10) will have solutions, that is, modular multiplicative inverses of 3 modulo 10 will exist. In fact, 7 satisfies this congruence (i ...

  7. Lagrange inversion theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange_inversion_theorem

    The theorem was proved by Lagrange [2] and generalized by Hans Heinrich Bürmann, [3] [4] [5] both in the late 18th century. There is a straightforward derivation using complex analysis and contour integration ; [ 6 ] the complex formal power series version is a consequence of knowing the formula for polynomials , so the theory of analytic ...

  9. Involution (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Involution_(mathematics)

    An involution is a function f : XX that, when applied twice, brings one back to the starting point. In mathematics, an involution, involutory function, or self-inverse function [1] is a function f that is its own inverse, f(f(x)) = x. for all x in the domain of f. [2] Equivalently, applying f twice produces the original value.
