  2. Jacobian conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobian_conjecture

    The strong real Jacobian conjecture was that a real polynomial map with a nowhere vanishing Jacobian determinant has a smooth global inverse. That is equivalent to asking whether such a map is topologically a proper map , in which case it is a covering map of a simply connected manifold , hence invertible.

  3. Jacobian matrix and determinant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobian_matrix_and...

    [8] [9] Some authors define the Jacobian as the transpose of the form given above. The Jacobian matrix represents the differential of f at every point where f is differentiable. In detail, if h is a displacement vector represented by a column matrix , the matrix product J ( x ) ⋅ h is another displacement vector, that is the best linear ...

  4. Jacobi method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobi_method

    In numerical linear algebra, the Jacobi method (a.k.a. the Jacobi iteration method) is an iterative algorithm for determining the solutions of a strictly diagonally dominant system of linear equations. Each diagonal element is solved for, and an approximate value is plugged in. The process is then iterated until it converges.

  5. Inverse function theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_function_theorem

    If it is true, the Jacobian conjecture would be a variant of the inverse function theorem for polynomials. It states that if a vector-valued polynomial function has a Jacobian determinant that is an invertible polynomial (that is a nonzero constant), then it has an inverse that is also a polynomial function. It is unknown whether this is true ...

  6. List of incomplete proofs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_incomplete_proofs

    Jacobian conjecture. Keller asked this as a question in 1939, and in the next few years there were several published incomplete proofs, including 3 by B. Segre, but Vitushkin found gaps in many of them. The Jacobian conjecture is (as of 2016) an open problem, and more incomplete proofs are regularly announced.

  7. Abel–Jacobi map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abel–Jacobi_map

    In mathematics, the Abel–Jacobi map is a construction of algebraic geometry which relates an algebraic curve to its Jacobian variety.In Riemannian geometry, it is a more general construction mapping a manifold to its Jacobi torus.

  8. Carl Gustav Jacob Jacobi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Gustav_Jacob_Jacobi

    The solution of the Jacobi inversion problem for the hyperelliptic Abel map by Weierstrass in 1854 required the introduction of the hyperelliptic theta function and later the general Riemann theta function for algebraic curves of arbitrary genus.

  9. Chain rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_rule

    That is, the Jacobian of a composite function is the product of the Jacobians of the composed functions (evaluated at the appropriate points). The higher-dimensional chain rule is a generalization of the one-dimensional chain rule. If k, m, and n are 1, so that f : R → R and g : R → R, then the Jacobian matrices of f and g are 1 × 1.
