  2. Al-Jabr - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al-Jabr

    Al-Jabr (Arabic: الجبر), also known as The Compendious Book on Calculation by Completion and Balancing (Arabic: الكتاب المختصر في حساب الجبر والمقابلة, al-Kitāb al-Mukhtaṣar fī Ḥisāb al-Jabr wal-Muqābalah; [b] or Latin: Liber Algebræ et Almucabola), is an Arabic mathematical treatise on algebra written in Baghdad around 820 by the Persian polymath ...

  3. Abstract algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abstract_algebra

    The permutations of the Rubik's Cube form a group, a fundamental concept within abstract algebra.. In mathematics, more specifically algebra, abstract algebra or modern algebra is the study of algebraic structures, which are sets with specific operations acting on their elements. [1]

  4. Algebraic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_function

    In mathematics, an algebraic function is a function that can be defined as the root of an irreducible polynomial equation.Algebraic functions are often algebraic expressions using a finite number of terms, involving only the algebraic operations addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and raising to a fractional power.

  5. Quadratic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_function

    In mathematics, a quadratic function of a single variable is a function of the form [1] = + +,,where ⁠ ⁠ is its variable, and ⁠ ⁠, ⁠ ⁠, and ⁠ ⁠ are coefficients.The expression ⁠ + + ⁠, especially when treated as an object in itself rather than as a function, is a quadratic polynomial, a polynomial of degree two.

  6. Pseudo-R-squared - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudo-R-squared

    R 2 L is given by Cohen: [1] =. This is the most analogous index to the squared multiple correlations in linear regression. [3] It represents the proportional reduction in the deviance wherein the deviance is treated as a measure of variation analogous but not identical to the variance in linear regression analysis. [3]

  7. Polynomial regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_regression

    The fact that the change in yield depends on x is what makes the relationship between x and y nonlinear even though the model is linear in the parameters to be estimated. In general, we can model the expected value of y as an nth degree polynomial, yielding the general polynomial regression model

  8. Linear algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_algebra

    It is used to model and optimize the generation, transmission, and distribution of electric power. Linear algebraic concepts such as matrix operations and eigenvalue problems are employed to enhance the efficiency, reliability, and economic performance of power systems .

  9. Glossary of mathematical jargon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_mathematical...

    The language of mathematics has a wide vocabulary of specialist and technical terms. It also has a certain amount of jargon: commonly used phrases which are part of the culture of mathematics, rather than of the subject.
