  2. Classification of discontinuities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classification_of...

    The function in example 1, a removable discontinuity. Consider the piecewise function = {< = >. The point = is a removable discontinuity.For this kind of discontinuity: The one-sided limit from the negative direction: = and the one-sided limit from the positive direction: + = + at both exist, are finite, and are equal to = = +.

  3. Discontinuities of monotone functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discontinuities_of...

    Let be a real-valued monotone function defined on an interval. Then the set of discontinuities of the first kind is at most countable.. One can prove [5] [3] that all points of discontinuity of a monotone real-valued function defined on an interval are jump discontinuities and hence, by our definition, of the first kind.

  4. Self-similar solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-similar_solution

    The self-similar solution of the second kind also appears in different contexts such as in boundary-layer problems subjected to small perturbations, [8] as was identified by Keith Stewartson, [9] Paul A. Libby and Herbert Fox. [10] Moffatt eddies are also a self-similar solution of the second kind.

  5. Green's function - Wikipedia

    The following table gives an overview of Green's functions of frequently appearing differential operators, where = + +, = +, is the Heaviside step function, () is a Bessel function, () is a modified Bessel function of the first kind, and () is a modified Bessel function of the second kind. [2]

    n (x) with n = −0.5 in the complex plane from −2 − 2i to 2 + 2i Plot of the Hankel function of the second kind H (2) n (x) with n = −0.5 in the complex plane from −2 − 2i to 2 + 2i. Another important formulation of the two linearly independent solutions to Bessel's equation are the Hankel functions of the first and second kind, H (1 ...

  7. Piecewise function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piecewise_function

    there is no discontinuity at an endpoint of any subdomain within that interval. The pictured function, for example, is piecewise-continuous throughout its subdomains, but is not continuous on the entire domain, as it contains a jump discontinuity at . The filled circle indicates that the value of the right sub-function is used in this position.

  8. Method of characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_characteristics

    Thus, when two characteristics cross, the function becomes multi-valued resulting in a non-physical solution. Physically, this contradiction is removed by the formation of a shock wave, a tangential discontinuity or a weak discontinuity and can result in non-potential flow, violating the initial assumptions. [8]

  9. Forgetful functor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forgetful_functor

    As an example, there are several forgetful functors from the category of commutative rings.A ring, described in the language of universal algebra, is an ordered tuple (, +,,,,) satisfying certain axioms, where + and are binary functions on the set , is a unary operation corresponding to additive inverse, and 0 and 1 are nullary operations giving the identities of the two binary operations.
