    Restriction of a function: if f is a function, and S is a subset of its domain, then | is the function with S as a domain that equals f on S. 4. Conditional probability : P ( X ∣ E ) {\displaystyle P(X\mid E)} denotes the probability of X given that the event E occurs.

    Thus one antiderivative, which takes the value zero for x = 1, is a differentiable function called the natural logarithm. A real function f is monotonic in an interval if the sign of () does not depend of the choice of x and y in the interval. If the function is differentiable in the interval, it is monotonic if the sign of the derivative is ...

    unstrict inequality signs (less-than or equals to sign and greater-than or equals to sign) 1670 (with the horizontal bar over the inequality sign, rather than below it) John Wallis: 1734 (with double horizontal bar below the inequality sign) Pierre Bouguer

    For arguments when the phase difference is zero, the two signals will have the same sign and will be reinforcing each other. One says that constructive interference is occurring. At arguments t {\displaystyle t} when the phases are different, the value of the sum depends on the waveform.

    The integral of the Dirac delta function. Sawtooth wave; Square wave; Triangle wave; Rectangular function; Floor function: Largest integer less than or equal to a given number. Ceiling function: Smallest integer larger than or equal to a given number. Sign function: Returns only the sign of a number, as +1, −1 or 0.

    During the trip, each twin sends yearly time signals (measured in their own proper times) to the other. After the trip, the cumulative counts are compared. On the outward phase of the trip, each twin receives the other's signals at the lowered rate of ⁠ ′ = / (+) ⁠. Initially, the situation is perfectly symmetric: note that each twin ...

  9. Square (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_(algebra)

    The graph of the square function y = x 2 is a parabola. The squaring operation defines a real function called the square function or the squaring function. Its domain is the whole real line, and its image is the set of nonnegative real numbers. The square function preserves the order of positive numbers: larger numbers have larger squares.
