  2. Lagrange inversion theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange_inversion_theorem

    In fact, the Lagrange inversion theorem has a number of additional rather different proofs, including ones using tree-counting arguments or induction. [7] [8] [9] If f is a formal power series, then the above formula does not give the coefficients of the compositional inverse series g directly in terms for the coefficients of the series f.

  3. Lagrangian mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrangian_mechanics

    Particularly, Lagrange's approach was to set up independent generalized coordinates for the position and speed of every object, which allows the writing down of a general form of Lagrangian (total kinetic energy minus potential energy of the system) and summing this over all possible paths of motion of the particles yielded a formula for the ...

  4. Inverse problem for Lagrangian mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_problem_for...

    In mathematics, the inverse problem for Lagrangian mechanics is the problem of determining whether a given system of ordinary differential equations can arise as the Euler–Lagrange equations for some Lagrangian function. There has been a great deal of activity in the study of this problem since the early 20th century.

  5. Lagrange reversion theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange_reversion_theorem

    In mathematics, the Lagrange reversion theorem gives series or formal power series expansions of certain implicitly defined functions; indeed, of compositions with such functions. Let v be a function of x and y in terms of another function f such that = + Then for any function g, for small enough y: = + =!

  7. Residue (complex analysis) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residue_(complex_analysis)

    This formula can be very useful in determining the residues for low-order poles. For higher-order poles, the calculations can become unmanageable, and series expansion is usually easier. For essential singularities , no such simple formula exists, and residues must usually be taken directly from series expansions.

  8. Generating function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generating_function

    The Lagrange inversion theorem is a tool used to explicitly evaluate solutions to such equations. Lagrange inversion formula — Let ϕ ( z ) ∈ C [ [ z ] ] {\textstyle \phi (z)\in C[[z]]} be a formal power series with a non-zero constant term.

    According to the fundamental lemma of calculus of variations, the part of the integrand in parentheses is zero, i.e. ′ = which is called the Euler–Lagrange equation. The left hand side of this equation is called the functional derivative of J [ f ] {\displaystyle J[f]} and is denoted δ J {\displaystyle \delta J} or δ f ( x ...
