  2. List of mathematical functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_functions

    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.

  3. Floor and ceiling functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_and_ceiling_functions

    The fractional part function has Fourier series expansion [19] {} = = ⁡ for x not an integer. At points of discontinuity, a Fourier series converges to a value that is the average of its limits on the left and the right, unlike the floor, ceiling and fractional part functions: for y fixed and x a multiple of y the Fourier series given ...

  4. Rational function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_function

    In mathematics, a rational function is any function that can be defined by a rational fraction, which is an algebraic fraction such that both the numerator and the denominator are polynomials. The coefficients of the polynomials need not be rational numbers ; they may be taken in any field K .

  5. Caputo fractional derivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caputo_fractional_derivative

    In mathematics, the Caputo fractional derivative, also called Caputo-type fractional derivative, is a generalization of derivatives for non-integer orders named after Michele Caputo. Caputo first defined this form of fractional derivative in 1967.

  6. Function field of an algebraic variety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_field_of_an...

    In algebraic geometry, the function field of an algebraic variety V consists of objects that are interpreted as rational functions on V.In classical algebraic geometry they are ratios of polynomials; in complex geometry these are meromorphic functions and their higher-dimensional analogues; in modern algebraic geometry they are elements of some quotient ring's field of fractions.

  7. Fractional calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractional_calculus

    The operators arising are examples of singular integral operators; and the generalisation of the classical theory to higher dimensions is called the theory of Riesz potentials. So there are a number of contemporary theories available, within which fractional calculus can be discussed.

  8. Heaviside cover-up method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heaviside_cover-up_method

    When a partial fraction term has a single (i.e. unrepeated) binomial in the denominator, the numerator is a residue of the function defined by the input fraction. We calculate each respective numerator by (1) taking the root of the denominator (i.e. the value of x that makes the denominator zero) and (2) then substituting this root into the ...

  9. Functional square root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_square_root

    Notations expressing that f is a functional square root of g are f = g [1/2] and f = g 1/2 [citation needed] [dubious – discuss], or rather f = g 1/2 (see Iterated function#Fractional_iterates_and_flows,_and_negative_iterates), although this leaves the usual ambiguity with taking the function to that power in the multiplicative sense, just as f ² = f ∘ f can be misinterpreted as x ↦ f(x)².
