  2. Implicit function theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicit_function_theorem

    The implicit function theorem may still be applied to these two points, by writing x as a function of y, that is, = (); now the graph of the function will be ((),), since where b = 0 we have a = 1, and the conditions to locally express the function in this form are satisfied.

  3. Implicit function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicit_function

    An implicit function is a function that is defined by an implicit equation, that relates one of the variables, considered as the value of the function, with the others considered as the arguments. [ 1 ] : 204–206 For example, the equation x 2 + y 2 − 1 = 0 {\displaystyle x^{2}+y^{2}-1=0} of the unit circle defines y as an implicit function ...

  4. Implicit curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicit_curve

    In general, implicit curves fail the vertical line test (meaning that some values of x are associated with more than one value of y) and so are not necessarily graphs of functions. However, the implicit function theorem gives conditions under which an implicit curve locally is given by the graph of a function (so in particular it has no self ...

  5. Differential calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_calculus

    The implicit function theorem converts relations such as f(x, y) = 0 into functions. It states that if f is continuously differentiable , then around most points, the zero set of f looks like graphs of functions pasted together.

  6. Gaussian curvature - Wikipedia

    They measure how the surface bends by different amounts in different directions from that point. We represent the surface by the implicit function theorem as the graph of a function, f, of two variables, in such a way that the point p is a critical point, that is, the gradient of f vanishes (this can always be attained by a suitable rigid motion).

    Functions F as in the third definition are called local defining functions. The equivalence of all three definitions follows from the implicit function theorem. [14] [15] [16] Coordinate changes between different local charts must be smooth

  9. Graph of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_of_a_function

    Given a function: from a set X (the domain) to a set Y (the codomain), the graph of the function is the set [4] = {(, ()):}, which is a subset of the Cartesian product.In the definition of a function in terms of set theory, it is common to identify a function with its graph, although, formally, a function is formed by the triple consisting of its domain, its codomain and its graph.
