  2. Tent map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tent_map

    Graph of tent map function Example of iterating the initial condition x 0 = 0.4 over the tent map with μ = 1.9. In mathematics, the tent map with parameter μ is the real-valued function f μ defined by ():= {,}, the name being due to the tent-like shape of the graph of f μ.

  3. Cobweb plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobweb_plot

    A cobweb plot, known also as Lémeray Diagram or Verhulst diagram is a visual tool used in the dynamical systems field of mathematics to investigate the qualitative behaviour of one-dimensional iterated functions, such as the logistic map. The technique was introduced in the 1890s by E.-M. Lémeray. [1] Using a cobweb plot, it is possible to ...

  4. Mathematical diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_diagram

    Any such diagram (given that the vertices are labeled) uniquely determines a partial order, and any partial order has a unique transitive reduction, but there are many possible placements of elements in the plane, resulting in different Hasse diagrams for a given order that may have widely varying appearances. Knot diagram.

  5. Map (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    A map is a function, as in the association of any of the four colored shapes in X to its color in Y. In mathematics, a map or mapping is a function in its general sense. [1] These terms may have originated as from the process of making a geographical map: mapping the Earth surface to a sheet of paper. [2]

  6. Logistic map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_map

    Graphs of maps, especially those of one variable such as the logistic map, are key to understanding the behavior of the map. One of the uses of graphs is to illustrate fixed points, called points. Draw a line y = x (a 45° line) on the graph of the map. If there is a point where this 45° line intersects with the graph, that point is a fixed point.

  7. 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.

  8. Point plotting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_plotting

    Using point plotting, one associates an ordered pair of real numbers (x, y) with a point in the plane in a one-to-one manner. As a result, one obtains the 2-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system . To be able to plot points, one needs to first decide on a point in plane which will be called the origin , and a couple of perpendicular lines ...

  9. Plot (graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plot_(graphics)

    Comet plot : A two- or three-dimensional animated plot in which the data points are traced on the screen. Contour plot : A two-dimensional plot which shows the one-dimensional curves, called contour lines on which the plotted quantity q is a constant. Optionally, the plotted values can be color-coded.
