  2. Image (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    For the function that maps a Person to their Favorite Food, the image of Gabriela is Apple. The preimage of Apple is the set {Gabriela, Maryam}. The preimage of Fish is the empty set. The image of the subset {Richard, Maryam} is {Rice, Apple}. The preimage of {Rice, Apple} is {Gabriela, Richard, Maryam}.

  3. Preimage theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preimage_theorem

    In mathematics, particularly in the field of differential topology, the preimage theorem is a variation of the implicit function theorem concerning the preimage of particular points in a manifold under the action of a smooth map.

  4. Geometric function theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_function_theory

    Analytic continuation of natural logarithm (imaginary part) Analytic continuation is a technique to extend the domain of a given analytic function.Analytic continuation often succeeds in defining further values of a function, for example in a new region where an infinite series representation in terms of which it is initially defined becomes divergent.

  5. Fiber (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    A function : is monotone in this topological sense if and only if it is non-increasing or non-decreasing, which is the usual meaning of "monotone function" in real analysis. A function between topological spaces is (sometimes) called a proper map if every fiber is a compact subspace of its domain. However, many authors use other non-equivalent ...

  6. Image (category theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_(category_theory)

    In a category with all finite limits and colimits, the image is defined as the equalizer (,) of the so-called cokernel pair (,,), which is the cocartesian of a morphism with itself over its domain, which will result in a pair of morphisms ,:, on which the equalizer is taken, i.e. the first of the following diagrams is cocartesian, and the second equalizing.

  7. Function of a real variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_of_a_real_variable

    A complex-valued function of a real variable may be defined by relaxing, in the definition of the real-valued functions, the restriction of the codomain to the real numbers, and allowing complex values. If f(x) is such a complex valued function, it may be decomposed as f(x) = g(x) + ih(x), where g and h are real-valued functions. In other words ...

  8. Measurable function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measurable_function

    This is in direct analogy to the definition that a continuous function between topological spaces preserves the topological structure: the preimage of any open set is open. In real analysis , measurable functions are used in the definition of the Lebesgue integral .

  9. Surjective function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surjective_function

    In mathematics, a surjective function (also known as surjection, or onto function / ˈ ɒ n. t uː /) is a function f such that, for every element y of the function's codomain, there exists at least one element x in the function's domain such that f(x) = y. In other words, for a function f : X → Y, the codomain Y is the image of the function ...
