  2. Limits of computation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limits_of_computation

    The Bekenstein bound limits the amount of information that can be stored within a spherical volume to the entropy of a black hole with the same surface area. Thermodynamics limit the data storage of a system based on its energy, number of particles and particle modes. In practice, it is a stronger bound than the Bekenstein bound.

  3. Limit (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In mathematics, a limit is the value that a function (or sequence) approaches as the argument (or index) approaches some value. [1] Limits of functions are essential to calculus and mathematical analysis, and are used to define continuity, derivatives, and integrals.

  4. Iterated limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iterated_limit

    In multivariable calculus, an iterated limit is a limit of a sequence or a limit of a function in the form , = (,), (,) = ((,)),or other similar forms. An iterated limit is only defined for an expression whose value depends on at least two variables. To evaluate such a limit, one takes the limiting process as one of the two variables approaches some number, getting an expression whose value ...

  6. Dirac delta function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirac_delta_function

    The delta function allows us to construct an idealized limit of these approximations. Unfortunately, the actual limit of the functions (in the sense of pointwise convergence) + is zero everywhere but a single point, where it is infinite. To make proper sense of the Dirac delta, we should instead insist that the property

  7. Limits of integration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limits_of_integration

    In calculus and mathematical analysis the limits of integration (or bounds of integration) of the integral () of a Riemann integrable function f {\displaystyle f} defined on a closed and bounded interval are the real numbers a {\displaystyle a} and b {\displaystyle b} , in which a {\displaystyle a} is called the lower limit and b {\displaystyle ...

  8. Limit of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_of_a_function

    In particular, one can no longer talk about the limit of a function at a point, but rather a limit or the set of limits at a point. A function is continuous at a limit point p of and in its domain if and only if f(p) is the (or, in the general case, a) limit of f(x) as x tends to p. There is another type of limit of a function, namely the ...

    This is a list of limits for common functions such as elementary functions. In this article, the terms a , b and c are constants with respect to x . Limits for general functions
