  2. Real analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_analysis

    Real analysis is an area of analysis that studies concepts such as sequences and their limits, continuity, differentiation, integration and sequences of functions. By definition, real analysis focuses on the real numbers, often including positive and negative infinity to form the extended real line.

  3. Quartic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartic_function

    The four roots of the depressed quartic x 4 + px 2 + qx + r = 0 may also be expressed as the x coordinates of the intersections of the two quadratic equations y 2 + py + qx + r = 0 and y − x 2 = 0 i.e., using the substitution y = x 2 that two quadratics intersect in four points is an instance of Bézout's theorem.

  4. Function of several real variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_of_several_real...

    The image of a function f(x 1, x 2, …, x n) is the set of all values of f when the n-tuple (x 1, x 2, …, x n) runs in the whole domain of f.For a continuous (see below for a definition) real-valued function which has a connected domain, the image is either an interval or a single value.

  5. Conic section - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conic_section

    For a rectangular or equilateral hyperbola, one whose asymptotes are perpendicular, there is an alternative standard form in which the asymptotes are the coordinate axes and the line x = y is the principal axis. The foci then have coordinates (c, c) and (−c, −c). [9] Circle: + =, Ellipse:

  6. Möbius strip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Möbius_strip

    The edges and vertices of these six regions form Tietze's graph, which is a dual graph on this surface for the six-vertex complete graph but cannot be drawn without crossings on a plane. Another family of graphs that can be embedded on the Möbius strip, but not on the plane, are the Möbius ladders , the boundaries of subdivisions of the ...

  7. Vector-valued function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector-valued_function

    A graph of the vector-valued function r(z) = 2 cos z, 4 sin z, z indicating a range of solutions and the vector when evaluated near z = 19.5. A common example of a vector-valued function is one that depends on a single real parameter t, often representing time, producing a vector v(t) as the result.

  8. Interior-point method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interior-point_method

    An interior point method was discovered by Soviet mathematician I. I. Dikin in 1967. [1] The method was reinvented in the U.S. in the mid-1980s. In 1984, Narendra Karmarkar developed a method for linear programming called Karmarkar's algorithm, [2] which runs in provably polynomial time (() operations on L-bit numbers, where n is the number of variables and constants), and is also very ...

  9. Hilbert space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert_space

    It is positive definite: for all vectors x, xx ≥ 0 , with equality if and only if x = 0. An operation on pairs of vectors that, like the dot product, satisfies these three properties is known as a (real) inner product .
