  2. Method of undetermined coefficients - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_undetermined...

    Consider a linear non-homogeneous ordinary differential equation of the form = + (+) = where () denotes the i-th derivative of , and denotes a function of .. The method of undetermined coefficients provides a straightforward method of obtaining the solution to this ODE when two criteria are met: [2]

  3. Variable (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    A variable may denote an unknown number that has to be determined; in which case, it is called an unknown; for example, in the quadratic equation ax 2 + bx + c = 0, the variables a, b, c are parameters, and x is the unknown. Sometimes the same symbol can be used to denote both a variable and a constant, that is a well defined mathematical object.

  7. Cramer's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cramer's_rule

    [4] [5] [6] Cramer's rule, implemented in a naive way, is computationally inefficient for systems of more than two or three equations. [7] In the case of n equations in n unknowns, it requires computation of n + 1 determinants, while Gaussian elimination produces the result with the same computational complexity as the computation of a single ...

  8. Integral equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integral_equation

    This equation is a special form of the more general weakly singular Volterra integral equation of the first kind, called Abel's integral equation: [7] = Strongly singular: An integral equation is called strongly singular if the integral is defined by a special regularisation, for example, by the Cauchy principal value.

  9. Lambert W function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambert_W_function

    The notation convention chosen here (with W 0 and W −1) follows the canonical reference on the Lambert W function by Corless, Gonnet, Hare, Jeffrey and Knuth. [3]The name "product logarithm" can be understood as follows: since the inverse function of f(w) = e w is termed the logarithm, it makes sense to call the inverse "function" of the product we w the "product logarithm".
