  2. Third derivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_derivative

    In calculus, a branch of mathematics, the third derivative or third-order derivative is the rate at which the second derivative, or the rate of change of the rate of change, is changing. The third derivative of a function y = f ( x ) {\displaystyle y=f(x)} can be denoted by

  3. Chord diagram (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chord_diagram_(mathematics)

    Chord diagrams are conventionally visualized by arranging the objects in their order around a circle, and drawing the pairs of the matching as chords of the circle. The number of different chord diagrams that may be given for a set of 2 n {\displaystyle 2n} cyclically ordered objects is the double factorial ( 2 n − 1 ) ! ! {\displaystyle (2n ...

  4. Circle graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_graph

    A circle with five chords and the corresponding circle graph. In graph theory, a circle graph is the intersection graph of a chord diagram.That is, it is an undirected graph whose vertices can be associated with a finite system of chords of a circle such that two vertices are adjacent if and only if the corresponding chords cross each other.

  5. Contact (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_(mathematics)

    A circle with 1st-order contact (tangent) A circle with 2nd-order contact (osculating) A circle with 3rd-order contact at a vertex of a curve. For each point S(t) on a smooth plane curve S, there is exactly one osculating circle, whose radius is the reciprocal of κ(t), the curvature of S at t.

  6. Circle of thirds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_of_thirds

    The circle of thirds is related to the Circle of fifths. The circle of fifths is composed of the twelve Major keys in the order (C, G, D, A, E, B, F#/G♭, D♭, A♭, E♭, B♭, F) going clockwise. The circle of fifths can also be drawn as a circle of the associated minor keys in the order (Am, Em, Bm, F#m, C#m, G#m, D#m, B♭m, Fm, Cm, Gm, Dm).

  7. Cyclic order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_order

    As a circle has a clockwise order and a counterclockwise order, any set with a cyclic order has two senses. A bijection of the set that preserves the order is called an ordered correspondence . If the sense is maintained as before, it is a direct correspondence , otherwise it is called an opposite correspondence . [ 10 ]

  9. Simpson's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simpson's_rule

    Typically, this means that either the function is highly oscillatory or lacks derivatives at certain points. In these cases, Simpson's rule may give very poor results. One common way of handling this problem is by breaking up the interval [,] into > small subintervals. Simpson's rule is then applied to each subinterval, with the results being ...
