  2. Order theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_theory

    Every order theoretic definition has its dual: it is the notion one obtains by applying the definition to the inverse order. Since all concepts are symmetric, this operation preserves the theorems of partial orders. For a given mathematical result, one can just invert the order and replace all definitions by their duals and one obtains another ...

  3. Inverse problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_problem

    In order to understand what may happen, we have to keep in mind that solving such a linear inverse problem amount to solving a Fredholm integral equation of the first kind: = (,) () where K {\displaystyle K} is the kernel, x {\displaystyle x} and y {\displaystyle y} are vectors of R 2 {\displaystyle R^{2}} , and Ω {\displaystyle \Omega } is a ...

  4. Duality (order theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duality_(order_theory)

    In the mathematical area of order theory, every partially ordered set P gives rise to a dual (or opposite) partially ordered set which is often denoted by P op or P d.This dual order P op is defined to be the same set, but with the inverse order, i.e. x ≤ y holds in P op if and only if y ≤ x holds in P.

  5. Logistic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_function

    The standard logistic function is the logistic function with parameters =, =, =, which yields = + = + = / / + /.In practice, due to the nature of the exponential function, it is often sufficient to compute the standard logistic function for over a small range of real numbers, such as a range contained in [−6, +6], as it quickly converges very close to its saturation values of 0 and 1.

  6. Inverse function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_function

    In classical mathematics, every injective function f with a nonempty domain necessarily has a left inverse; however, this may fail in constructive mathematics. For instance, a left inverse of the inclusion {0,1} → R of the two-element set in the reals violates indecomposability by giving a retraction of the real line to the set {0,1} .

  7. Involution (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Any involution is a bijection.. The identity map is a trivial example of an involution. Examples of nontrivial involutions include negation (x ↦ −x), reciprocation (x ↦ 1/x), and complex conjugation (z ↦ z) in arithmetic; reflection, half-turn rotation, and circle inversion in geometry; complementation in set theory; and reciprocal ciphers such as the ROT13 transformation and the ...
