  2. Jacobian matrix and determinant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobian_matrix_and...

    Furthermore, if the Jacobian determinant at p is positive, then f preserves orientation near p; if it is negative, f reverses orientation. The absolute value of the Jacobian determinant at p gives us the factor by which the function f expands or shrinks volumes near p ; this is why it occurs in the general substitution rule .

  3. Jacobian conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobian_conjecture

    The obvious analogue of the Jacobian conjecture fails if k has characteristic p > 0 even for one variable. The characteristic of a field, if it is not zero, must be prime, so at least 2. The polynomial x − x p has derivative 1 − p x p−1 which is 1 (because px is 0) but it has no inverse function.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_function_theorem

    For functions of more than one variable, the theorem states that if is a continuously differentiable function from an open subset of into , and the derivative ′ is invertible at a point a (that is, the determinant of the Jacobian matrix of f at a is non-zero), then there exist neighborhoods of in and of = such that () and : is bijective.

    where Df is the Jacobian matrix, with transpose , and I denotes the identity matrix. [19] For n = 2 , this system is equivalent to the standard Cauchy–Riemann equations of complex variables, and the solutions are holomorphic functions.

  8. Determinant - Wikipedia

    It is −1 if and only if the basis has the opposite orientation. More generally, if the determinant of A is positive, A represents an orientation-preserving linear transformation (if A is an orthogonal 2 × 2 or 3 × 3 matrix, this is a rotation), while if it is negative, A switches the orientation of the basis.
