  2. Graph of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_of_a_function

    Given a function: from a set X (the domain) to a set Y (the codomain), the graph of the function is the set [4] = {(, ()):}, which is a subset of the Cartesian product.In the definition of a function in terms of set theory, it is common to identify a function with its graph, although, formally, a function is formed by the triple consisting of its domain, its codomain and its graph.

  3. Asymptote - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptote

    The graph of a function with a horizontal (y = 0), vertical (x = 0), and oblique asymptote (purple line, given by y = 2x) A curve intersecting an asymptote infinitely many times In analytic geometry , an asymptote ( / ˈ æ s ɪ m p tt / ) of a curve is a line such that the distance between the curve and the line approaches zero as one or ...

  4. Closed graph property - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_graph_property

    If F : X → 2 Y is a set-valued function between topological spaces X and Y then the following are equivalent: F has a closed graph (in X × Y); (definition) the graph of F is a closed subset of X × Y; and if Y is compact and Hausdorff then we may add to this list: F is upper hemicontinuous and F(x) is a closed subset of Y for all x ∈ X; [6]

    tensor graph product (or direct graph product, categorical graph product, cardinal graph product, Kronecker graph product): it is a commutative and associative operation (for unlabelled graphs), zig-zag graph product; [3] graph product based on other products: rooted graph product: it is an associative operation (for unlabelled but rooted graphs),

  6. Convex function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_function

    In simple terms, a convex function graph is shaped like a cup (or a straight line like a linear function), while a concave function's graph is shaped like a cap . A twice- differentiable function of a single variable is convex if and only if its second derivative is nonnegative on its entire domain . [ 1 ]

  7. Polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial

    The names for the degrees may be applied to the polynomial or to its terms. For example, the term 2x in x 2 + 2x + 1 is a linear term in a quadratic polynomial. The polynomial 0, which may be considered to have no terms at all, is called the zero polynomial. Unlike other constant polynomials, its degree is not zero.

  8. Function (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In mathematics, a function from a set X to a set Y assigns to each element of X exactly one element of Y. [1] The set X is called the domain of the function [2] and the set Y is called the codomain of the function. [3] Functions were originally the idealization of how a varying quantity depends on another quantity.

  9. Linear function (calculus) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_function_(calculus)

    The features of the graph = = + can be interpreted in terms of the variables x and y. The y -intercept is the initial value y = f ( 0 ) = b {\displaystyle y=f(0)=b} at x = 0 {\displaystyle x=0} . The slope a measures the rate of change of the output y per unit change in the input x .
