  2. Asymptote - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptote

    If y=c is a horizontal asymptote of f(x), then y=c+k is a horizontal asymptote of f(x)+k; If a known function has an asymptote, then the scaling of the function also have an asymptote. If y=ax+b is an asymptote of f(x), then y=cax+cb is an asymptote of cf(x) For example, f(x)=e x-1 +2 has horizontal asymptote y=0+2=2, and no vertical or oblique ...

  3. Sigmoid function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmoid_function

    A sigmoid function is constrained by a pair of horizontal asymptotes as . A sigmoid function is convex for values less than a particular point, and it is concave for values greater than that point: in many of the examples here, that point is 0.

  4. Truncus (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    The basic truncus y = 1 / x 2 has asymptotes at x = 0 and y = 0, and every other truncus can be obtained from this one through a combination of translations and dilations. For the general truncus form above, the constant a dilates the graph by a factor of a from the x -axis; that is, the graph is stretched vertically when a > 1 and compressed ...

  5. Asymptotic analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptotic_analysis

    An asymptote is a straight line that a curve approaches but never meets or crosses. Informally, one may speak of the curve meeting the asymptote "at infinity" although this is not a precise definition. In the equation =, y becomes arbitrarily small in magnitude as x increases.

  6. Folium of Descartes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folium_of_Descartes

    The folium of Descartes (green) with asymptote (blue) when = In geometry , the folium of Descartes (from Latin folium ' leaf '; named for René Descartes ) is an algebraic curve defined by the implicit equation x 3 + y 3 − 3 a x y = 0. {\displaystyle x^{3}+y^{3}-3axy=0.}

  8. Asymptotic expansion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptotic_expansion

    In mathematics, an asymptotic expansion, asymptotic series or Poincaré expansion (after Henri Poincaré) is a formal series of functions which has the property that truncating the series after a finite number of terms provides an approximation to a given function as the argument of the function tends towards a particular, often infinite, point.
