  2. Eisenstein's criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eisenstein's_criterion

    Consider the polynomial Q(x) = 3x 4 + 15x 2 + 10.In order for Eisenstein's criterion to apply for a prime number p it must divide both non-leading coefficients 15 and 10, which means only p = 5 could work, and indeed it does since 5 does not divide the leading coefficient 3, and its square 25 does not divide the constant coefficient 10.

  3. Dependent and independent variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dependent_and_independent...

    In mathematics, a function is a rule for taking an input (in the simplest case, a number or set of numbers) [5] and providing an output (which may also be a number). [5] A symbol that stands for an arbitrary input is called an independent variable, while a symbol that stands for an arbitrary output is called a dependent variable. [6]

  4. Constraint (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    where denotes the vector (x 1, x 2). In this example, the first line defines the function to be minimized (called the objective function , loss function, or cost function). The second and third lines define two constraints, the first of which is an inequality constraint and the second of which is an equality constraint.

  5. Number theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_theory

    Number theory is a branch of pure mathematics devoted primarily to the study of the integers and arithmetic functions.German mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss (1777–1855) said, "Mathematics is the queen of the sciences—and number theory is the queen of mathematics."

  6. Magic square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_square

    The smallest (and unique up to rotation and reflection) non-trivial case of a magic square, order 3. In mathematics, especially historical and recreational mathematics, a square array of numbers, usually positive integers, is called a magic square if the sums of the numbers in each row, each column, and both main diagonals are the same.

  7. Category theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category_theory

    an epimorphism (or epic) if g 1 ∘ f = g 2 ∘ f implies g 1 = g 2 for all morphisms g 1, g 2 : b → x. a bimorphism if f is both epic and monic. an isomorphism if there exists a morphism g : b → a such that f ∘ g = 1 b and g ∘ f = 1 a. [c] an endomorphism if a = b. end(a) denotes the class of endomorphisms of a.

  8. Random walk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_walk

    Five eight-step random walks from a central point. Some paths appear shorter than eight steps where the route has doubled back on itself. (animated version)In mathematics, a random walk, sometimes known as a drunkard's walk, is a stochastic process that describes a path that consists of a succession of random steps on some mathematical space.

  9. Maximum and minimum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_and_minimum

    Unique global maximum over the positive real numbers at x = 1/e. x 3 /3 − x: First derivative x 2 − 1 and second derivative 2x. Setting the first derivative to 0 and solving for x gives stationary points at −1 and +1. From the sign of the second derivative, we can see that −1 is a local maximum and +1 is a local minimum.
