In numerical analysis, multivariate interpolation or multidimensional interpolation is interpolation on multivariate functions, having more than one variable or defined over a multi-dimensional domain. [1] A common special case is bivariate interpolation or two-dimensional interpolation, based on two variables or two dimensions.
The image of a function f(x 1, x 2, …, x n) is the set of all values of f when the n-tuple (x 1, x 2, …, x n) runs in the whole domain of f.For a continuous (see below for a definition) real-valued function which has a connected domain, the image is either an interval or a single value.
The scope of the function name is limited to the let expression structure. In mathematics, the let expression defines a condition, which is a constraint on the expression. The syntax may also support the declaration of existentially quantified variables local to the let expression. The terminology, syntax and semantics vary from language to ...
In mathematics, a multivalued function, [1] multiple-valued function, [2] many-valued function, [3] or multifunction, [4] is a function that has two or more values in its range for at least one point in its domain. [5]
Thus, if one can solve for one iterated function system, one also has solutions for all topologically conjugate systems. For example, the tent map is topologically conjugate to the logistic map. As a special case, taking f(x) = x + 1, one has the iteration of g(x) = h −1 (h(x) + 1) as g n (x) = h −1 (h(x) + n), for any function h.
Multi-objective optimization or Pareto optimization (also known as multi-objective programming, vector optimization, multicriteria optimization, or multiattribute optimization) is an area of multiple-criteria decision making that is concerned with mathematical optimization problems involving more than one objective function to be optimized simultaneously.
Just as the definite integral of a positive function of one variable represents the area of the region between the graph of the function and the x-axis, the double integral of a positive function of two variables represents the volume of the region between the surface defined by the function (on the three-dimensional Cartesian plane where z = f(x, y)) and the plane which contains its domain. [1]
The most general way to represent this is to have the constant represent an unknown function of all the other variables. Thus the set of functions + + (), where g is any one-argument function, represents the entire set of functions in variables x, y that could have produced the x-partial derivative +.
