  2. Absolute value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_value

    The real absolute value function is an example of a continuous function that achieves a global minimum where the derivative does not exist. The subdifferential of | x | at x = 0 is the interval [−1, 1]. [14] The complex absolute value function is continuous everywhere but complex differentiable nowhere because it violates the Cauchy–Riemann ...

  3. Absolute value (algebra) - Wikipedia

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

    The standard absolute value on the integers. The standard absolute value on the complex numbers.; The p-adic absolute value on the rational numbers.; If R is the field of rational functions over a field F and () is a fixed irreducible polynomial over F, then the following defines an absolute value on R: for () in R define | | to be , where () = () and ((), ()) = = ((), ()).

  4. Absolutely integrable function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolutely_integrable_function

    In mathematics, an absolutely integrable function is a function whose absolute value is integrable, meaning that the integral of the absolute value over the whole domain is finite.

  5. Sign function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_function

    For example, the absolute value function is identical to in the region >, whose derivative is the constant value +1, which equals the value of ⁡ there. Because the absolute value is a convex function , there is at least one subderivative at every point, including at the origin.

  6. Positive and negative parts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_and_negative_parts

    The converse, though, does not necessarily hold: for example, taking f as =, where V is a Vitali set, it is clear that f is not measurable, but its absolute value is, being a constant function. The positive part and negative part of a function are used to define the Lebesgue integral for a real-valued function.

  7. Valuation (algebra) - Wikipedia

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

    the value group or valuation group Γ v = v(K ×), a subgroup of Γ (though v is usually surjective so that Γ v = Γ); the valuation ring R v is the set of a ∈ K with v ( a ) ≥ 0, the prime ideal m v is the set of a ∈ K with v ( a ) > 0 (it is in fact a maximal ideal of R v ),

  8. Differentiable function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differentiable_function

    The absolute value function is continuous (i.e. it has no gaps). It is differentiable everywhere except at the point x = 0, where it makes a sharp turn as it crosses the y-axis. A cusp on the graph of a continuous function. At zero, the function is continuous but not differentiable. If f is differentiable at a point x 0, then f must also be ...

  9. Rolle's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolle's_theorem

    The graph of the absolute value function. If differentiability fails at an interior point of the interval, the conclusion of Rolle's theorem may not hold. Consider the absolute value function = | |, [,]. Then f (−1) = f (1), but there is no c between −1 and 1 for which the f ′(c) is zero.
