  2. Extraneous and missing solutions - Wikipedia

    Therefore, the solution = is extraneous and not valid, and the original equation has no solution. For this specific example, it could be recognized that (for the value x = − 2 {\displaystyle x=-2} ), the operation of multiplying by ( x − 2 ) ( x + 2 ) {\displaystyle (x-2)(x+2)} would be a multiplication by zero.

    An example of a nonlinear delay differential equation; applications in number theory, distribution of primes, and control theory [5] [6] [7] Chrystal's equation: 1 + + + = Generalization of Clairaut's equation with a singular solution [8] Clairaut's equation: 1

  4. Inverse problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_problem

    An inverse problem in science is the process of calculating from a set of observations the causal factors that produced them: for example, calculating an image in X-ray computed tomography, source reconstruction in acoustics, or calculating the density of the Earth from measurements of its gravity field.

    It follows that the solutions of E are a subset of those of E'. The solution set of E' consists of the solution set of E plus, possibly, some other solutions, called extraneous solutions. --Lambiam 15:43, 19 January 2008 (UTC) Lambiam, on your first example, sorry, why isn't 2 a solution?

  6. Boundary value problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boundary_value_problem

    Boundary value problems are similar to initial value problems.A boundary value problem has conditions specified at the extremes ("boundaries") of the independent variable in the equation whereas an initial value problem has all of the conditions specified at the same value of the independent variable (and that value is at the lower boundary of the domain, thus the term "initial" value).

  7. Linear dynamical system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_dynamical_system

    While dynamical systems, in general, do not have closed-form solutions, linear dynamical systems can be solved exactly, and they have a rich set of mathematical properties. Linear systems can also be used to understand the qualitative behavior of general dynamical systems, by calculating the equilibrium points of the system and approximating it ...

  8. Corner solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corner_solution

    This is a corner solution as the highest possible IC (IC 2) intersects the budget line at one of the intercepts (x-intercept). [1] In mathematics and economics, a corner solution is a special solution to an agent's maximization problem in which the quantity of one of the arguments in the maximized function is zero. In non-technical terms, a ...

  9. System of polynomial equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_polynomial_equations

    A natural example of such a question concerning positive-dimensional systems is the following: decide if a polynomial system over the rational numbers has a finite number of real solutions and compute them. A generalization of this question is find at least one solution in each connected component of the set of real solutions of a polynomial ...
