  2. Cubic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_function

    In mathematics, a cubic function is a function of the form () = + + +, that is, a polynomial function of degree three. In many texts, the coefficients a , b , c , and d are supposed to be real numbers , and the function is considered as a real function that maps real numbers to real numbers or as a complex function that maps complex numbers to ...

  3. Cubic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_equation

    The discriminant Δ of the cubic is the square of = () (), where a is the leading coefficient of the cubic, and r 1, r 2 and r 3 are the three roots of the cubic. As Δ {\displaystyle {\sqrt {\Delta }}} changes of sign if two roots are exchanged, Δ {\displaystyle {\sqrt {\Delta }}} is fixed by the Galois group only if the Galois group is A 3 .

    Thomae's function: is a function that is continuous at all irrational numbers and discontinuous at all rational numbers. It is also a modification of Dirichlet function and sometimes called Riemann function. Kronecker delta function: is a function of two variables, usually integers, which is 1 if they are equal, and 0 otherwise.

  5. Cubic form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_form

    In mathematics, a cubic form is a homogeneous polynomial of degree 3, and a cubic hypersurface is the zero set of a cubic form. In the case of a cubic form in three variables, the zero set is a cubic plane curve. In (Delone & Faddeev 1964), Boris Delone and Dmitry Faddeev showed that binary cubic forms with integer coefficients can be used to ...

    However, for any degree there are some polynomial equations that have algebraic solutions; for example, the equation = can be solved as =. The eight other solutions are nonreal complex numbers , which are also algebraic and have the form x = ± r 2 10 , {\displaystyle x=\pm r{\sqrt[{10}]{2}},} where r is a fifth root of unity , which can be ...

  8. Cube (algebra) - Wikipedia

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

    The cube operation can also be defined for any other mathematical expression, for example (x + 1) 3. The cube is also the number multiplied by its square: n 3 = n × n 2 = n × n × n. The cube function is the function x ↦ x 3 (often denoted y = x 3) that maps a number to its cube. It is an odd function, as (−n) 3 = −(n 3).

  9. Cubic equations of state - Wikipedia

    The cubic-plus-chain (CPC) [28] [29] [30] equation of state hybridizes the classical cubic equation of state with the SAFT chain term. [ 21 ] [ 22 ] The addition of the chain term allows the model to be capable of capturing the physics of both short-chain and long-chain non-associating components ranging from alkanes to polymers.
