  2. Function of several complex variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_of_several...

    As in complex analysis of functions of one variable, which is the case n = 1, the functions studied are holomorphic or complex analytic so that, locally, they are power series in the variables z i. Equivalently, they are locally uniform limits of polynomials; or locally square-integrable solutions to the n-dimensional Cauchy–Riemann equations.

  3. Polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial

    The special case where all the polynomials are of degree one is called a system of linear equations, for which another range of different solution methods exist, including the classical Gaussian elimination. A polynomial equation for which one is interested only in the solutions which are integers is called a Diophantine equation. Solving ...

    The Barth surface, shown in the figure is the geometric representation of the solutions of a polynomial system reduced to a single equation of degree 6 in 3 variables. Some of its numerous singular points are visible on the image. They are the solutions of a system of 4 equations of degree 5 in 3 variables.

  5. Function of a real variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_of_a_real_variable

    The image of a function of a real variable is a curve in the codomain. In this context, a function that defines curve is called a parametric equation of the curve. When the codomain of a function of a real variable is a finite-dimensional vector space, the function may be viewed as a sequence of real functions. This is often used in applications.

  6. Elementary algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_algebra

    To solve this kind of equation, the technique is add, subtract, multiply, or divide both sides of the equation by the same number in order to isolate the variable on one side of the equation. Once the variable is isolated, the other side of the equation is the value of the variable. [37] This problem and its solution are as follows: Solving for x

  7. Equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation

    When there is only one variable, polynomial equations have the form P(x) = 0, where P is a polynomial, and linear equations have the form ax + b = 0, where a and b are parameters. To solve equations from either family, one uses algorithmic or geometric techniques that originate from linear algebra or mathematical analysis.

  8. Formal power series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal_power_series

    A formal power series can be loosely thought of as an object that is like a polynomial, but with infinitely many terms.Alternatively, for those familiar with power series (or Taylor series), one may think of a formal power series as a power series in which we ignore questions of convergence by not assuming that the variable X denotes any numerical value (not even an unknown value).

  9. System of linear equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_linear_equations

    When the equations are independent, each equation contains new information about the variables, and removing any of the equations increases the size of the solution set. For linear equations, logical independence is the same as linear independence. The equations x − 2y = −1, 3x + 5y = 8, and 4x + 3y = 7 are linearly dependent.
