  2. Limit of a sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_of_a_sequence

    A limit of a sequence of points () in a topological space is a special case of a limit of a function: the domain is in the space {+}, with the induced topology of the affinely extended real number system, the range is , and the function argument tends to +, which in this space is a limit point of .

  3. Oscillation (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Oscillation of a sequence (shown in blue) is the difference between the limit superior and limit inferior of the sequence. In mathematics, the oscillation of a function or a sequence is a number that quantifies how much that sequence or function varies between its extreme values as it approaches infinity or a point.

  4. Incomplete gamma function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incomplete_gamma_function

    Repeated application of the recurrence relation for the lower incomplete gamma function leads to the power series expansion: [2] (,) = = (+) (+) = = (+ +). Given the rapid growth in absolute value of Γ(z + k) when k → ∞, and the fact that the reciprocal of Γ(z) is an entire function, the coefficients in the rightmost sum are well-defined, and locally the sum converges uniformly for all ...

  5. Complex plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_plane

    Argand diagram refers to a geometric plot of complex numbers as points z = x + iy using the horizontal x-axis as the real axis and the vertical y-axis as the imaginary axis. [3] Such plots are named after Jean-Robert Argand (1768–1822), although they were first described by Norwegian–Danish land surveyor and mathematician Caspar Wessel ...

  6. Point at infinity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_at_infinity

    In an affine or Euclidean space of higher dimension, the points at infinity are the points which are added to the space to get the projective completion. [citation needed] The set of the points at infinity is called, depending on the dimension of the space, the line at infinity, the plane at infinity or the hyperplane at infinity, in all cases a projective space of one less dimension.

  7. Homogeneous coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogeneous_coordinates

    In the limit, as approaches infinity, in other words, as the point moves away from the origin, approaches and the homogeneous coordinates of the point become (,,). Thus we define ( m , − n , 0 ) {\displaystyle (m,-n,0)} as the homogeneous coordinates of the point at infinity corresponding to the direction of the line n x + m y = 0 ...
