  2. Cancelling out - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cancelling_out

    For example, in the simple equation 3 + 2y = 8y, both sides actually contain 2y (because 8y is the same as 2y + 6y). Therefore, the 2y on both sides can be cancelled out, leaving 3 = 6y, or y = 0.5. This is equivalent to subtracting 2y from both sides. At times, cancelling out can introduce limited changes or extra solutions to an equation. For ...

  3. One-form (differential geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-form_(differential...

    The most basic non-trivial differential one-form is the "change in angle" form . This is defined as the derivative of the angle "function" (,) (which is only defined up to an additive constant), which can be explicitly defined in terms of the atan2 function.

  4. Catastrophic cancellation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catastrophic_cancellation

    In numerical analysis, catastrophic cancellation [1] [2] is the phenomenon that subtracting good approximations to two nearby numbers may yield a very bad approximation to the difference of the original numbers.

  5. Resolvent (Galois theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resolvent_(Galois_theory)

    Transitive subgroups of form a directed graph: one group can be a subgroup of several groups. One resolvent can tell if the Galois group of a polynomial is a (not necessarily proper) subgroup of given group. The resolvent method is just a systematic way to check groups one by one until only one group is possible. This does not mean that every ...

  6. Symmetry of second derivatives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry_of_second_derivatives

    The two iterated integrals are therefore equal. On the other hand, since f xy (x,y) is continuous, the second iterated integral can be performed by first integrating over x and then afterwards over y. But then the iterated integral of f yx − f xy on [a,b] × [c,d] must vanish.

  7. Homeomorphism (graph theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homeomorphism_(graph_theory)

    Here, it is emphasized that only degree-2 (i.e., 2-valent) vertices can be smoothed. The limit of this operation is realized by the graph that has no more degree-2 vertices. For example, the simple connected graph with two edges, e 1 {u,w } and e 2 {w,v }: has a vertex (namely w) that can be smoothed away, resulting in:

  9. Vertex separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex_separator

    The minimal (a,b)-separators also form an algebraic structure: For two fixed vertices a and b of a given graph G, an (a,b)-separator S can be regarded as a predecessor of another (a,b)-separator T, if every path from a to b meets S before it meets T. More rigorously, the predecessor relation is defined as follows: Let S and T be two (a,b ...
