  2. Function composition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_composition

    If an airplane's altitude at time t is a(t), and the air pressure at altitude x is p(x), then (p ∘ a)(t) is the pressure around the plane at time t. Function defined on finite sets which change the order of their elements such as permutations can be composed on the same set, this being composition of permutations.

  3. Common fixed point problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_fixed_point_problem

    In his thesis, Boyce identified a pair of functions that commute under composition, but do not have a common fixed point, proving the fixed point conjecture to be false. [ 14 ] In 1963, Glenn Baxter and Joichi published a paper about the fixed points of the composite function h ( x ) = f ( g ( x ) ) = g ( f ( x ) ) {\displaystyle h(x)=f(g(x))=g ...

  4. Function composition (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_composition...

    In computer science, function composition is an act or mechanism to combine simple functions to build more complicated ones. Like the usual composition of functions in mathematics , the result of each function is passed as the argument of the next, and the result of the last one is the result of the whole.

  5. Twelvefold way - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twelvefold_way

    the function labels each element of N by an element of X. the function selects (chooses) an element of the set X for each element of N, a total of n choices. the function groups the elements of N together that are mapped to the same element of X. These points of view are not equally suited to all cases.

  6. Convex combination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_combination

    A conical combination is a linear combination with nonnegative coefficients. When a point is to be used as the reference origin for defining displacement vectors, then is a convex combination of points ,, …, if and only if the zero displacement is a non-trivial conical combination of their respective displacement vectors relative to .

  7. Chain rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_rule

    In calculus, the chain rule is a formula that expresses the derivative of the composition of two differentiable functions f and g in terms of the derivatives of f and g.More precisely, if = is the function such that () = (()) for every x, then the chain rule is, in Lagrange's notation, ′ = ′ (()) ′ (). or, equivalently, ′ = ′ = (′) ′.

  8. Infinite compositions of analytic functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_compositions_of...

    Some functions can actually be expanded directly as infinite compositions. In addition, it is possible to use ICAF to evaluate solutions of fixed point equations involving infinite expansions. Complex dynamics offers another venue for iteration of systems of functions rather than a single function.

  9. Identity function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identity_function

    If f : X → Y is any function, then f ∘ id X = f = id Y ∘ f, where "∘" denotes function composition. [4] In particular, id X is the identity element of the monoid of all functions from X to X (under function composition). Since the identity element of a monoid is unique, [5] one can alternately define the identity function on M to
