  2. Stability (algebraic geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stability_(algebraic_geometry)

    This analogy with mechanical equilibrium motivates the terminology of stability and instability. In mathematics, and especially algebraic geometry, stability is a notion which characterises when a geometric object, for example a point, an algebraic variety, a vector bundle, or a sheaf, has some desirable properties for the purpose of ...

  3. Stability theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stability_theory

    In mathematics, stability theory addresses the stability of solutions of differential equations and of trajectories of dynamical systems under small perturbations of initial conditions. The heat equation , for example, is a stable partial differential equation because small perturbations of initial data lead to small variations in temperature ...

  4. Structural stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_stability

    In mathematics, structural stability is a fundamental property of a dynamical system which means that the qualitative behavior of the trajectories is unaffected by small perturbations (to be exact C 1-small perturbations). Examples of such qualitative properties are numbers of fixed points and periodic orbits (but not their periods).

  5. Linear stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_stability

    In mathematics, in the theory of differential equations and dynamical systems, a particular stationary or quasistationary solution to a nonlinear system is called linearly unstable if the linearization of the equation at this solution has the form / =, where r is the perturbation to the steady state, A is a linear operator whose spectrum contains eigenvalues with positive real part.

  6. Limits of stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limits_of_stability

    [3] When the CoG moves beyond the BoS, the individual must take a step or hold onto an external support to maintain balance and prevent a fall. [4] [5] These stability limits are perceived rather than solely physiological; they represent the subject's readiness to adjust their CoG position. [1]: 25

  7. L-stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L-stability

    Within mathematics regarding differential equations, L-stability is a special case of A-stability, a property of Runge–Kutta methods for solving ordinary differential equations.

  8. Autonomous system (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Autonomous_system_(mathematics)

    Stability generally increases to the left of the diagram. [1] Some sink, source or node are equilibrium points. 2-dimensional case refers to Phase plane. In mathematics, an autonomous system or autonomous differential equation is a system of ordinary differential equations which does not explicitly depend on the independent variable.

  9. Stable group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stable_group

    A group of finite Morley rank is an abstract group G such that the formula x = x has finite Morley rank for the model G.It follows from the definition that the theory of a group of finite Morley rank is ω-stable; therefore groups of finite Morley rank are stable groups.
