  2. Cubic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_function

    Graph of a cubic function with 3 real roots (where the curve crosses the horizontal axis—where y = 0).The case shown has two critical points.Here the function is f(x) = (x 3 + 3x 2 − 6x − 8)/4.

  3. Elliptic curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_curve

    Graphs of curves y 2 = x 3 − x and y 2 = x 3 − x + 1. Although the formal definition of an elliptic curve requires some background in algebraic geometry, it is possible to describe some features of elliptic curves over the real numbers using only introductory algebra and geometry.

  4. 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.

  5. Inflection point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inflection_point

    An example of a stationary point of inflection is the point (0, 0) on the graph of y = x 3. The tangent is the x-axis, which cuts the graph at this point. An example of a non-stationary point of inflection is the point (0, 0) on the graph of y = x 3 + ax, for any nonzero a. The tangent at the origin is the line y = ax, which cuts the graph at ...

  6. Log–log plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log–log_plot

    A log–log plot of y = x (blue), y = x 2 (green), and y = x 3 (red). Note the logarithmic scale markings on each of the axes, and that the log x and log y axes (where the logarithms are 0) are where x and y themselves are 1. Comparison of linear, concave, and convex functions when plotted using a linear scale (left) or a log scale (right).

  7. Curve sketching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve_sketching

    An x value where the y value of the red, or the blue, curve vanishes (becomes 0) gives rise to a local extremum (marked "HP", "TP"), or an inflection point ("WP"), of the black curve, respectively. In geometry , curve sketching (or curve tracing ) are techniques for producing a rough idea of overall shape of a plane curve given its equation ...

  8. Plot (graphics) - Wikipedia

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

    Surface plot : In this visualization of the graph of a bivariate function, a surface is plotted to fit a set of data triplets (X, Y, Z), where Z if obtained by the function to be plotted Z=f(X, Y). Usually, the set of X and Y values are equally spaced. Optionally, the plotted values can be color-coded.

  9. Complete graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complete_graph

    The complement graph of a complete graph is an empty graph. If the edges of a complete graph are each given an orientation, the resulting directed graph is called a tournament. K n can be decomposed into n trees T i such that T i has i vertices. [6] Ringel's conjecture asks if the complete graph K 2n+1 can be decomposed into copies of any tree ...
