  2. Characteristic equation (calculus) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_equation...

    If a second-order differential equation has a characteristic equation with complex conjugate roots of the form r 1 = a + bi and r 2 = a − bi, then the general solution is accordingly y(x) = c 1 e (a + bi )x + c 2 e (a − bi )x. By Euler's formula, which states that e iθ = cos θ + i sin θ, this solution can be rewritten as follows:

    The seven selected problems span a number of mathematical fields, namely algebraic geometry, arithmetic geometry, geometric topology, mathematical physics, number theory, partial differential equations, and theoretical computer science. Unlike Hilbert's problems, the problems selected by the Clay Institute were already renowned among ...

  4. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigenvalues_and_eigenvectors

    The corresponding eigenvalue, characteristic value, or characteristic root is the multiplying factor (possibly negative). Geometrically, vectors are multi-dimensional quantities with magnitude and direction, often pictured as arrows. A linear transformation rotates, stretches, or shears the vectors upon which it acts. Its eigenvectors are those ...

  5. Method of characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_characteristics

    In mathematics, the method of characteristics is a technique for solving partial differential equations.Typically, it applies to first-order equations, though in general characteristic curves can also be found for hyperbolic and parabolic partial differential equation.

  6. Characteristic (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_(algebra)

    The characteristic of a ring R is the natural number n such that n is the kernel of the unique ring homomorphism from to R. [a]The characteristic is the natural number n such that R contains a subring isomorphic to the factor ring /, which is the image of the above homomorphism.

  7. Unit root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_root

    In probability theory and statistics, a unit root is a feature of some stochastic processes (such as random walks) that can cause problems in statistical inference involving time series models. A linear stochastic process has a unit root if 1 is a root of the process's characteristic equation.
