  2. Inequality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    For instance, to solve the inequality 4x < 2x + 1 ≤ 3x + 2, it is not possible to isolate x in any one part of the inequality through addition or subtraction. Instead, the inequalities must be solved independently, yielding x < ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ and x ≥ −1 respectively, which can be combined into the final solution −1 ≤ x < ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠.

  3. Triangle inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle_inequality

    The first of these quadratic inequalities requires r to range in the region beyond the value of the positive root of the quadratic equation r 2 + r − 1 = 0, i.e. r > φ − 1 where φ is the golden ratio. The second quadratic inequality requires r to range between 0 and the positive root of the quadratic equation r 2 − r − 1 = 0, i.e. 0 ...

    where , is the inner product.Examples of inner products include the real and complex dot product; see the examples in inner product.Every inner product gives rise to a Euclidean norm, called the canonical or induced norm, where the norm of a vector is denoted and defined by ‖ ‖:= , , where , is always a non-negative real number (even if the inner product is complex-valued).

  5. List of triangle inequalities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_triangle_inequalities

    The parameters most commonly appearing in triangle inequalities are: the side lengths a, b, and c;; the semiperimeter s = (a + b + c) / 2 (half the perimeter p);; the angle measures A, B, and C of the angles of the vertices opposite the respective sides a, b, and c (with the vertices denoted with the same symbols as their angle measures);

  6. Christofides algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christofides_algorithm

    According to the triangle inequality, for every three vertices u, v, and x, it should be the case that w(uv) + w(vx) ≥ w(ux). Then the algorithm can be described in pseudocode as follows. [1] Create a minimum spanning tree T of G. Let O be the set of vertices with odd degree in T. By the handshaking lemma, O has an even number of vertices.

  7. Grönwall's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grönwall's_inequality

    Grönwall's inequality is an important tool to obtain various estimates in the theory of ordinary and stochastic differential equations. In particular, it provides a comparison theorem that can be used to prove uniqueness of a solution to the initial value problem ; see the Picard–Lindelöf theorem .

  8. Frobenius method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frobenius_method

    Some solutions of a differential equation having a regular singular point with indicial roots = and .. In mathematics, the method of Frobenius, named after Ferdinand Georg Frobenius, is a way to find an infinite series solution for a linear second-order ordinary differential equation of the form ″ + ′ + = with ′ and ″.

  9. Hölder's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hölder's_inequality

    Hölder's inequality is used to prove the Minkowski inequality, which is the triangle inequality in the space L p (μ), and also to establish that L q (μ) is the dual space of L p (μ) for p ∈ [1, ∞). Hölder's inequality (in a slightly different form) was first found by Leonard James Rogers .
