  2. Inverse function - Wikipedia

    is invertible, since the derivative f′(x) = 3x 2 + 1 is always positive. If the function f is differentiable on an interval I and f′(x) ≠ 0 for each x ∈ I, then the inverse f −1 is differentiable on f(I). [17] If y = f(x), the derivative of the inverse is given by the inverse function theorem,

  3. Inverse function rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_function_rule

    In calculus, the inverse function rule is a formula that expresses the derivative of the inverse of a bijective and differentiable function f in terms of the derivative of f. More precisely, if the inverse of f {\displaystyle f} is denoted as f − 1 {\displaystyle f^{-1}} , where f − 1 ( y ) = x {\displaystyle f^{-1}(y)=x} if and only if f ...

    [1] [10] Another precarious convention used by a small number of authors is to use an uppercase first letter, along with a “ −1 ” superscript: Sin −1 (x), Cos −1 (x), Tan −1 (x), etc. [11] Although it is intended to avoid confusion with the reciprocal, which should be represented by sin −1 (x), cos −1 (x), etc., or, better, by ...

  5. Antiderivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antiderivative

    The slope field of () = +, showing three of the infinitely many solutions that can be produced by varying the arbitrary constant c.. In calculus, an antiderivative, inverse derivative, primitive function, primitive integral or indefinite integral [Note 1] of a continuous function f is a differentiable function F whose derivative is equal to the original function f.

  6. Inverse function theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_function_theorem

    The inverse function theorem can also be generalized to differentiable maps between Banach spaces X and Y. [20] Let U be an open neighbourhood of the origin in X and F : U → Y {\displaystyle F:U\to Y\!} a continuously differentiable function, and assume that the Fréchet derivative d F 0 : X → Y {\displaystyle dF_{0}:X\to Y\!} of F at 0 is ...

  7. Multiplicative inverse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicative_inverse

    The notation f −1 is sometimes also used for the inverse function of the function f, which is for most functions not equal to the multiplicative inverse. For example, the multiplicative inverse 1/(sin x) = (sin x) −1 is the cosecant of x, and not the inverse sine of x denoted by sin −1 x or arcsin x.

    Nevertheless, they all assume that f or f −1 is differentiable. The general version of the theorem, free from this additional assumption, was proposed by Michael Spivak in 1965, as an exercise in the Calculus, [2] and a fairly complete proof following the same lines was published by Eric Key in 1994. [3]

  9. Involution (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    An involution is a function f : XX that, when applied twice, brings one back to the starting point. In mathematics, an involution, involutory function, or self-inverse function [1] is a function f that is its own inverse, f(f(x)) = x. for all x in the domain of f. [2] Equivalently, applying f twice produces the original value.
