  2. Zero of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_of_a_function

    More precisely, if : is a real-valued function (or, more generally, a function taking values in some additive group), its zero set is (), the inverse image of {} in . Under the same hypothesis on the codomain of the function, a level set of a function f {\displaystyle f} is the zero set of the function f − c {\displaystyle f-c} for some c ...

  3. Zeros and poles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeros_and_poles

    A function f is meromorphic in an open set U if for every point z of U there is a neighborhood of z in which at least one of f and 1/f is holomorphic. If f is meromorphic in U, then a zero of f is a pole of 1/f, and a pole of f is a zero of 1/f. This induces a duality between zeros and poles, that is

  4. 0 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/0

    0 (zero) is a number representing an empty quantity.Adding (or subtracting) 0 to any number leaves that number unchanged; in mathematical terminology, 0 is the additive identity of the integers, rational numbers, real numbers, and complex numbers, as well as other algebraic structures.

  5. Norm (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In mathematics, a norm is a function from a real or complex vector space to the non-negative real numbers that behaves in certain ways like the distance from the origin: it commutes with scaling, obeys a form of the triangle inequality, and is zero only at the origin.

  6. Sign (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    The plus and minus symbols are used to show the sign of a number. In mathematics, the sign of a real number is its property of being either positive, negative, or 0.Depending on local conventions, zero may be considered as having its own unique sign, having no sign, or having both positive and negative sign.

  7. Limit of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_of_a_function

    The function f is continuous at p if and only if the limit of f(x) as x approaches p exists and is equal to f(p). If f : M → N is a function between metric spaces M and N, then it is equivalent that f transforms every sequence in M which converges towards p into a sequence in N which converges towards f(p).

  8. Determinant - Wikipedia

    The above formula shows that its Lie algebra is the special linear Lie algebra consisting of those matrices having trace zero. Writing a 3 × 3 {\displaystyle 3\times 3} -matrix as A = [ a b c ] {\displaystyle A={\begin{bmatrix}a&b&c\end{bmatrix}}} where a , b , c {\displaystyle a,b,c} are column vectors of length 3, then the gradient over one ...

    A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula.
